Cannot log in

Hi -

I was able to log in this time yesterday.
But in the past 15 hours or so, I've not been able to log in - I get the "could not connect to login server"

My eqhost.txt file contains [LoginServer]
Host=eqemulator.net:5998
It did have two trailing carriage returns; but it was working WITH these; and removing them hasn't helped.
I'm on Windows XP so shouldn't have any weird permissions issues going on
I have port forwarding of 5998 and 9000 set on my router. Nothing should have changed on the router since I could last log in.
I used a port scanner tool, and I can see eqemulator.net:5998 is Open.
I used "netstat -a" while attempting to log in - and I don't see any connection established for the log in attempt. Either my timing needs to be exact to see the connection; or my client is failing to open a connection

Any advice?

Cheers

Resetting my wireless router (by which I mean a stop/start, not a factory reset) has allowed me to log in again.
Issue with my wireless router I guess.
I was going to edit the original post to say "RESOLVED" at the end of the topic title but I don't see an edit button. If a mod's reading this, feel free to edit
