Hi All, Earlier this week, and up until about 2 this afternoon, I was going great with this game.

I am on satellite, so I know it takes some time to connect, So I always have one game going, and another in the back ground to connect. When I logged off today, to do A PC reboot, I immediately, started up the COH connector thingie. (technical term.)

And went about my business. I came in about 11 tonight, to see they had tried connecting 243 times so far. I turned it off, and decided to retry.

Now I have tried 2 different ways so far.

one with the normal "H:\COHV\City of Heroes\CohUpdater.exe"

and one with -project coh -maxinactivefps 3 -maxfps 30 added. (note I now have three accounts up and able to go.

Flushed DNS, Checked the firewall, Restarted modem, no idea what else I can do. even my router has all the ports open.

I sit here, and watch for example, the Age of Conan Updater flying through, I can connect to my Guildwars account with ease.

Fellow Heroes of Paragon City, Help a country boy out.

AMD PHenom 9850 quad core
4 gig ram
Win7 64 bit
ATI4350 512 MB Video
Just under 1 TB HD space.

Is it possibly just the evening time that there is so many logging on, and it's messing up on my end? I can also post pings to the different Updates servers, but I never know which one to use.

I get it now, This is like Fishing. I stepped away for 5 minutes to go Defrost a Freezer that my wife has been after me about, and I come back, and boom, she is good to go.

It's all about how you hold your mouth, wear your hat, just like fishing.

Also just like fishing, it teaches me a valuable lesson in Patience.
