OK...
I was playing about a week ago and decided to use the peq login server (at advice of a fellow player) and kaput! Everything went screwy from there. "A timeout error has occured" is my pain.
I have:
1. Reinstalled 3x (titanium, unpatched)
2. Triple checked and replaced eqhost file multiple times, using both emu and peq host address.
3. Changed firewall on/off. Turned Microsoft Security essentials on/off (on install, too). Checked router to insure nothing is blocked.
4. Had a freiend who is IT admin work on it for a bit (also EQ player),used several run CMDs to make sure connection is made. He says it appears my port is open to send, but not acccepting back (using netstat and pinging server). He said my PC is not negotiating for a higher port. Strange.
5. Read as much info as I can find on the board/FAQ/WIKI
Bear in mind this all worked fine b4 we decided to change the eqhost file. So simply replacing the text file should correct said problem? Wrong
Anyone with any advice at all would be of great assistance and greatly appreciated
