    Hi, can someone help with this issue please? I'm having the same problems as well for the last 2 days.

    Not being able to log in means not being able to play the game. And I noticed this issue only came about after the latest patches were released.

    Anybody has an idea as to what to do? I'm suffering from PWI withdrawal already..

    My bf was playing PWI, but he kept getting disconnected. When he tried logging in for the second time, it said he was unable to connect to the server. I've also been having the same issue. I can't log into any of the servers.

    Maybe this might be a maintenance related issue? Let's hope. :(

    It's probably your internet connection. Unplug your wifi and replug it, restart your computer then retry.

    I already did that. I have turned my wireless on and off several times and restarted my comp. I doubt it's the internet connection cause I can go to regular websites.

    I've also verified my files completely (4 times now), held the 'W' button while logging in, opened a port in Windows firewall and created exceptions for AVG. I have also tried uninstalling and re-installing the program, creating a second account and using another computer. Nothing works.

    I either get a "Unable to connect to server" message, get stuck at the "Logging in to the game, please wait" screen or arrive at an empty character selection page.

    If anybody have experienced this problem and managed to solve it, please do post how. I can't log into the game for 3 days now. =(

    Thanks!

    My friend who is brand new to PWI is also having a server error and cannot logon. However.. I can login to his account and connect without any problems.. He lives in England and I am in the States.. but I haven't seen location as being issue before. I *hope* this is just a patch issue..

    I had that problem earlier.

    Logging in takes the entire 40 seconds and you end up getting a message saying cannot connect to the server.

    If you try to switch servers, you will find that the client cannot even see most of the servers.

    Browsing normal websites seems fine and the patched client worked well a few days before that.

    The solution is simple. Most times, your broadband connection will be through a modem or a modem/router. All you have to do is power down the equipment (including your laptop/desktop) and power them up in this order: Modem, Router (if present), and Desktop/Laptop. Try to have a 5 min interval between powering up each device.

    You should be able to log in after that.
