Maybe it was a bot

Give me one answer please

Because of exactly that. Both computers are the same external IPs and would take the same route. A VPN would be an entirely different route unless it was within the first couple hops. There's like a .00001% chance you got globally banned unless you die something absolutely outrageous. Calm down, take a break.

So you are saying one device should work then. But they both don't work.

I shouldn't have to wait this out

It shouldn't affect me and eva at the same time. This is complete bullshit.

Whelp, you're beyond help and don't listen. Maybe a break is a good for you.

from you: You're definitely over reacting here. If you can't use ANY server without a VPN, it's a routing issue that you just have to wait to get resolved. It happens. If you can't connect specifically to P99 without a VPN, you're likely banned. If you were banned banned by an EQEmu administrator I don't see why you'd even be able to log in.

I am here, available, call me. Don't hide and act like this is my problem. Don't pretend this is a networking issue. That has been debunked. TALK TO ME

this doesn't happen, because i've had multiple accounts for 10 years, so hundreds of years of accounts, never with this problem. if i need to wait it out, then there is a reason why

There is no global ban function, every server is run by individuals and they all have their own infrastructure and ban lists/system. So far the only common denominator is your local isp. If using a vpn works then it proves it’s an issue with your local isps route as a vpn has all traffic being redirected through their systems and routes.

There is no rogue eqemu admin and there is no global bans.

So you predict this will clear up in a few days? I've already reset routers, re-installed, and flushed dns. You say this is going to clear up soon?

It's not my ISP...

It's so simple. the IP was blocked.

Dude, you have two people telling you the exact same thing. Get over yourself and accept that it's out of your control and you have a temporary work around for the meantime. You're not banned. Take. A. Break.
