I'm having problems connecting to the server lately.

I've got the last client (got the full download), and after i do "login", i get this message on the gui console:

Code:

1
2

Contacting patch server
patching has started

Then, a message box saying : "Your connection to the server timed out."

Then, it logs in again, and again, and again...

In the console.log file, the relevant information is:

Code:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11

I recently have changed ISP provider, so it might be something that i've got misconfigured, but... what?

Hmm thats a strange one. If you get as far as connecting to patch server it means you logged on OK. It's not something as simple as firewall I assume! -- port 28000 is master server, patch server and game servers use 28001, 28002, 28003, ...

I'll do a search on those error messages you got.
