    Just did a quick patch and logged in without issue. Its probably only people who share your problem that can't connect.

    (Though I wonder what your 'Net Test' and 'Trace Route' results look like, as with info, its anyone's guess on whats causing your problem...)

    Latency isn't bad. but your throughput is sub-par, as values above 200 KB/Sec are considered acceptable, while most of yours are below this... Appears the connections are suffering from excessive dropped packets along the connection...

    And you can't do anything yourself about dropped packets, (nor can Cryptic/PWE) as dropped packets are a ISP/Internet Backbone issue...

    had no issue's until the pre-patch launcher was released , had this sort of problem before as well as loads of other people and cryptic got it sorted but never told us what the problem was . seems to me that the pre-patcher is the problem tbh

    It's happening to me too - 'The patchclient got a message while it was in a state with no response function'.
