Default Everquest (Not Responding)
My client keeps freezing and says (Not Responding) up top on the window after I try and choose a server to play on. Is this a common occurrence? Couldn't find anything specific through the search bar.

I am in a college dorm building right now though, could that be the problem?

Thanks.

Happens a good bit. Just wait a min or two and it will bounce back. This can also happen if you alt tab out and back in sometimes.

If it doesn't pop back after a min or two there could be bigger issues.

Yeah it's giving the "Not Responding" sign every time i select a server to play from the server selection screen. I did notice something odd, however. It says I own "0 out of 0 expansions." Could that have something to do with it?

Yes, see the FAQ in my sig. They are probably blocking port 9000 at their proxy which is required for playing.

A lot of businesses and universities whitelist certain ports, so that only those ports can be used, rather than blocking selected ports. Sometimes you can contact administration and have them unblock a certain port, but that depends on the head of IT, usually.

If you have a smartphone just tether your PC to your phone to play EQ. I was PvPing in Rift using my phone's connection with ease.

Default any ideas?
Having same issue with login. Makes it all the way to server select, as soon as i try to join a server it goes black screen/not responding. Also of note, it kicks back to windowed mode when this happens. Running from a fresh install from Steam, windows 8.1, medium built computer. Have tried everything i can find from adjusting resolutions to checking to make sure my port forwarding is good for the game.
