Are there any EQ'ers using Demon dialup services to the access the European
Servers.
If so are you having access problems ?
I seem to having a random disconnects or failure to connect every other
couple of days. Packet traces suggest Demon have stopped routing the UDP
packs or are blocking the UDP ports numbers. When the problem occurs it is
persistent and usually not fixed until the next day.
Using the same PC setup changing my firewall  to a dial a different ISP
removes the problem- but is expensive due to online charges.
I have had zero resposne from the tech support desk.
Anyone else having similar problems ?
Regards
Mage Flameweaver
