Disconnect at Name Submit

[Jacobi]

Please help me out of my tech quandry

I've been trying for the last two days to make this work. I am bootcamping from a mac and have had the same problem from Win XP and Win 7. (Thought using a newer Win OS would get around the problem) Yet, it is the same, i get disconnected after waiting 10 mins for name to submit. Screen goes black and says i have been Disconnected (ahh, memories of EQLive)

I have tried many variations on resolution, assigning 1 core to play eq, and updating specifically to directx 9.0c. All of this didn't solve the problem.

I figured it must be a connectivity problem, perhaps something to do with firewall or router. Tried port forwarding the specific EQ ports, but no joy there either.

I have ATI 5700 Graphics Card and 6GB Ram, currently on Win 7.....

Urm, please help?

I miss EQ
