Not sure if this will fix it for everyone having this issue, but its worth looking into if your modems 9 years old like mine was.
That is not the first time I have seen that resolution for this exact problem. Maybe something is wrong with ISPs and how they handle ports on older modems. I bet they make some change/update and after that point, there are issues with a port needed to get the server list or something. It would also explain why normally when we see 1 post like this, 3-5 more pop up (from other people) within the same day or 2 and then nothing about it again until the next time. It is probably an ISP doing an update that breaks all of the players using that ISP with older modems. Now, if we only knew exactly what the cause was.
