Anytime I've tried to login today, I've gotten an error message saying the connection has timed out. I've tried in Chrome, firefox and Edge. Is there a maintenance outage or something?

Hi Keifersdad
I stumble upon this issue sometimes. I think if you are unlucky enough to be playing at a set time of day when there is a server refresh then you will be unable to log back in for a period of time (1 day approx). It's as if your IP gets blacklisted as a result of this.
A reboot of the router and getting a new external IP would be a fix but when this happens I prefer not to as it causes me some issues getting a new IP and time consuming re-configurations of various network equipment. So I tend to wait it out. It's not an exact science but I've learned over time to avoid playing between 5 am and 6.30 am UK time as this is when this issue is most likely to flare up.
Thanks,
Wayne

Thanks, Wayne Thanks for the info, Wayne. It doesn't happen very often, so I guess I can occasionally go a day without my LOW fix. I'll be having withdrawals, though. And that ain't pretty.  |
