I don't know, but I'm now stuck in this too. Tried to go to DS9 and get stuck at the loading screen. I forced closed the game and tried to log back in, but I keep getting stuck on the DS9 loading screen. I can't use that character at all now.
I did manage to get that character working again, whew. Just had to sit through a 5 min or so loading screen. Brutal. Going to try to avoid DS9 as much as I can for the time being.
mine does this as well, sits there till the client is "not responding" in task manager.

Same issue here, there is a 3min+ delay sometimes when beaming to (or relogging while at) ESD.
Before the last patch i was able to get past this by changing the client from full screen to windowed mode and back again, this is no longer the case and the game simply hangs there for several minutes.
So i went to ds9 to finish off my terran rep, and now the toon is stuck forever loading the map, rendering my main toon, in which i have invested tons of cash, totally unplayable.
I've been having the same issues with DS9 and ESD, for some reason it seems the game is trying to put you into a full instance map, this has been going on for a few weeks now and is a really annoying!
This is preventing players from playing and you would think it would be the highest priority for a mmo company to fix this issue.
A smooth gameplay* needs to be nr1 on the list!!!!!!!!!!!
*actually being able to play, no lag, no rubberbanding, stabillaty ect!!!!!
Forget about new episodes and content, players want this fixed more then anything!!!
P.S. I think the game is still suffering from the rush job they had to do back in 2008/09/10 ????? in order to get the game to launch on time.
The issue I think is that the instances are all full. Or something. Sitting there and starring at the loading screen will do you no good. When it hangs, give it 2-3 min. If it doesnt work. Alt - TAB out of the game, close it via task manager and re-try. I usually get in right away after re-trying a few times.
i made a post about this in Support, ESD is not that bad on the whole but DS9 is shocking, it seems to have got worse with time, i avoid going there now!
I've tried closing the game down and reloading whilst some times it does work, others it doesn't. I've had several times where it's taken an hour or more to get a single character onto DS9. And to be honest from a recent discussion with Trendy it seems whats ever is causing the issue isn't something simple. But that being said I've heard reports of this since Season 11 went live, and has of yet nothing has been fixed.
Considering a good portion of my game play involves using the duty officer system and that in turn means I need to move eight characters through the DS9 maps, every four hours or so, this really is a deal breaker for me.

From what I can tell, it seems like the server is either attempting to load an already full instance, and/or it loses hindsight of what it was initially doing leaving the player(s) in limbo for an extended period, and may even forget about them altogether!
