Borken for me also, keep getting kicked out while connecting to the login server, furthest I have got is getting to the character screen - after a long time - and then dying soon after I click on them to get into game
I'm a Star Trek fan...so that kind of precludes being a DS9 fan.
People have said that about every single version of Star Trek that's out there, therefore in order to be a fan of the franchise, you are not allowed to be a fan of any of it.
As its working for some people (me) and not others, then if it is a problem on PWE's end, then its likely to be a finicky wee beastie.
Most folks should be able to trace the route from them to the data center to locate where things are going south for them... some folks have done this in the past, and it tends to be the same non-Cryptic/PWE culprits.

TOS, TAS, TNG, VOY, ENT all have something in common that's lacking with DS9.
It's like folks over in Star Wars land being fans of 4-6, but not 1-3. As bad as 1-3 were, they were still Star Wars.
Heck, even Lens Flare and Blinded By Lens Flare still share commonalities with TOS, TAS, TNG, VOY, ENT, and the other ST Films.

Just did that and all is normal for me including a response from the game server and a patch server. Just cant reliably log in.
I agree. I've been asking around in other places and it seems the number one reason why many have walked away from STO is the constant dropped connections.
Having to replay missions from the start after getting dropped, getting dropped while in the middle of an STF.
It sucks.
The login server is intermittently faulty.
That is,when i change from one toon to another one,the login server prior to the character selection gets stuck on "connecting to login server".
Getting annoying now. Works fine for awhile then can't connect. Been like it for a few hours now. If you have one toon not a problem, quite a few then very painful. From a tracert it seems to be the account server or somewhere close to it.
Something to do with the blizzards over there? Need to unfreeze some cables.
The hamster running login server 208.95.186.32 has died. Any time you draw this login server while logging in or switching, it will not respond and you will time out. Someone needs to go replace the server hamster.
I'm having the same problem. "Connection to login server timed out". When I tried to login and change character (when it eventually let me in).
This reminds me of a song I read on the dooommm post a while back ... it went something like:

I know. Providing service is so 20th century isn't it :rolleyes:
It's not like they ever had issues with the holodecks in TNG, eh?

I was getting nauseous while rubberbanding...so I decided to share over in General Troll.

First: the blog that says that Q's Winter Wonderland is coming to an end was published.
Q gets mad that some stupid, mortal, big ugly pink bags of water decide what he can and can't do.
So he snaps his fingers, and poof! Login server is down.
I'll ask him to stop this prank. He'll listen to me xD
Join the Deltas today!
any eta on when it will work again?
You know, that's true. Being a fan of Star Trek doesn't actually preclude somebody from being a fan of something that isn't Star Trek.
As its working for some people (me) and not others, then if it is a problem on PWE's end, then its likely to be a finicky wee beastie.

Login server timed out... takes me about 3 minutes just to switch characters now.
Just annoying lol

Ping only timeouts and trace goes well till it has to go to the cryptic network I assume.
The last IP that is reachable is from cogentco.com too according to a whois lookup.
