Check for a connection before posting about not being able to connect.

open a command prompt window and type the following

ping newlogin1.eqemulator.net

--or--

ping 207.36.180.194

if it times out, then you are unable to connect to the server at that time. Wait a few minutes, few hours, go count your eggs before they hatch and try again. Your client won't connect nor will your server. This can happen even if the EQEmu login server is up, you just lost a path way to it is all, it'll restore itself soon enough.
That wont work, ping requests are ignored by the server, you will never get a response.
