    Everything worked fine until today. I haven't done/installed anything lately.
    I can't create / join any games. I get FTJ 99% of times.
    I tried to restart my PC, it worked once and then FTJ again, every time.
    Restarted the PC again and it doesn't work anymore.
    I'm not loading any MH, just regular d2 with " -w -ns".
    I have XP SP2 compatibility on Game, Loader and EuropeBattle.

    Any help?

    I can create/join games sometimes. Maybe 10%. I think it might be something related to game IP's? I don't do anything special but trying to create games and sometimes it goes through. I don't think it has something to do with my install since it worked every time until today.
    It also doesn't matter if I change characters / accounts.

    I did some tests and it seems that your internet provider (Liberty Global Vodafone UPC) is currently experiencing external routing issues and it's not able to connect to multiple of our european game servers which explains why everything worked fine for you until earlier today. Not much you can do except waiting for them to fix it on their end as most likely it's only a short-term temporary outage. Meanwhile, I have isolated your IP address from the nonresponsive hosts so you can only connect to those who are currently working for you and thus avoiding FTJ.

    Hi, thanks a lot for your help and for investigating what's wrong. I still can't connect about 9 times out of 10, but since it's my provider, I guess I'll have to wait...

    One thing you could try is give them a call and ask whether they have issues, and describe the problem that you have.
