I have good internet connectivity but can't connect to eve as of downtime on the 15th August. I get the message "Connection timeout - The server did not respond to the client's secure-handshake request within a reasonable amount of time"
Only ever had lag/connectivity problems with the limelight(?) crap that happened a while ago. Has been perfect for months now. I'm in Australia on iiNET, anyone with similar problems that have just started? Can anyone shed any light on recent ccp changes (hosting etc)?

I had exact same problem as you. Sydney area. What I did was change the port.
Funnily enough, though, restarting one of my computers made it connect it again. -------------------

I to am also having connection issues, which started after DT last night (15/08 AU). I am also in the Sydney area and IINET is my isp also. I have changed the port to 3724 which has fixed it. But something changed over that DT period to cause this issue. I have 3 computer on my home network and all are having the same connection issue.

I'm in Aus on iiNet too, and I'm getting excessive lag and disconnections, and I couldn't log in at all until I changed my port. YARR! |

I have the same problem, and am also with iiNet. The workaround of chaging port numbers worked for me, but the method of changing ports which was linked above didn't work (i.e. the prefs.ini editing method).
Here is what did work for me:
1) right click on your EVE desktop icon 2) select properties 3) edit the box labled "Target" to look like this "C:\Program Files\<your eve directory>\eve.exe" /end /server:87.237.38.200:3724
Good luck.

I'm on BT in the UK and the lag is horrendous. I've changed ports and its fine.
I don't think two companies on opposite sides of the world suddenly decided to throttle back the same port. So its a provider nearer CCP or CCP have been playing again.
Just done a trace and its 239mS from London to CCP lol. We've got circuits around the globe with less than that. If it has been throttled it's CCP's provider thats done it.

I am in Australia and also use IINET as my provider. Had perfect connection yesterday, but not working today.
Changing the port to 3724 has resolved the problem for me as well.

Edited by: Odre Echee on 16/08/2008 11:03:58 At this point, I'd say it's time somebody go off and ring iiNet or complain on Whirlpool, but last time I did that, all that happened was being told by fanboys that it's: a) my DNS b) my hosts file c) my router d) my connection e) my firewall
Ugh.
Though this very well could be the sea cables busting up again.
Or the CCP's end. -------------------

NINJAEDIT : as soon as Tranq. comes on, I'll do a Telnet thing like I found in another thread, and file a petition.
I am having the exact same problem with iiNet in Sydney metro area. I decided to try everything I could to fix it on my end, and well found it wasn't me, even though I posted my info on whirlpool and everyone pointed at me saying its my setup and not ISP, saying I didn't know jack, after I told them I was certain it was my ISP.
Also having issues with other games logons, sometimes they worked mostly they don't or lag out right away. :( I will yell at iiNet some tomorrow, I don't think it is CCP.

I just signed upto Whirlpool to reply to that thread of yours, and checked back just to get the linkie. Har. You can always give the link 'ere. Save Valan, who, according to my degree in science (we do statistics) can be considered outlier, it seems only people who has problem like this is people on iiNet. I downloaded a couple o' other MMOs to test, and I'm having trouble connect too.
Hell, only good use for Whirlpool is to find out if there's a problem anyway. It's damn choke-full of fanboys that it's like arguing on a Mac forum, or hardcore-PC forum about superiority of another platform.
Yell at'em loudly for me too. -------------------

Heh Thanks. I just sent off an email to iiNet support (mailto:[email protected]) regarding this issue, just specifying connection issues to several sites/games/programs, and that there are forum threads for these things confirming of an iiNet only problem. Chances are they will want me to run their stupid tests anyway. Hopefully this will get resolved soon.
It's been annoying to get home from work unable to play, then wake up on saturday and same deal, so spending all day trying to fix :(
Edit: Anyone who wants to post in that iiNet thread on whirlpool is welcome to, they often seme to get reps from the different ISP's there, and maybe if lucky one will see and do something. http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=1034416&p=-1#bottom

Sydney and iiNet here, same problem.
It started with intermittent dropouts this morning (local time) and finally gave up the ghost at about 3pm today.
I've also been unable to connect to our Ventrilo server. Vent has connected twice this afternoon/evening, but dropped out seconds later. ______________________ Isn't it time you learned to fight back? Agony Unleashed Home of the PvP University.

This didn't work :(
I will see if I can work around, but the problem seems to be getting worse.

Thanks for the info here.
If you've got multiple installs for sisi, tranquility, etc. you might have to look for a prefs.ini file in a subfolder like this "c_evesisi_eve_tranquility".

Same problem, iinet in Sydney. I can't even see the server now. I used to at least be able to attempt a login before it timed out.

I am having the same problem in the US as of late last night. I was on then it dropped me and I have been unable to reconnect. I tried the shortcut edit and it still can't connect.
I am using Cbeyond out of Dallas Texas. I have an actual commercial T1. I am guessing that CCP is having peering issues again somewhere upstream. Since I can VPN to another clients network and I am able to get on through another ISP. My Traceroutes from Cbeyond go out through Level3.

I'm still using the alternate port and it seems to be working.
Ventrilo is now working as well.
Only problem now is that I reinstalled the client yesterday and all my settings are gone. ______________________ Isn't it time you learned to fight back? Agony Unleashed Home of the PvP University.

I can use pport 26000 but it is very laggy when session changing, especially changing ships or undocking.

Sydney time, 10pm to 6am or so seem to be the times when this screws up.

None of those options worked for me.
It actually worked this morning before midday (off-peak) but when I tried again after midday (peak) I couldn't get past character selection. Doubt this is a coincidence.

I too, iinet sufferer. So I do hope the iinet system will sort it out. Seems that their work in Liverpool which their website says they are doing, may have bent a few things. Both Ventrillo and Eve are acting up

I spent 30 minutes on the phone to iinet, they ran their tests, and everything came back fine. I even upgraded my modem, but to no avail. The common denominator here, seems to be iinet. My corp mates that are on Optus, say that they've had no problem, and I note that there hasn't been a mention of Optus or Telstra here. Looks like those two ISP's will be picking up some business from iinet this week. Damn, I didn't want to subscribe to those evil bastards, but it's looking like we'll have to dance with the devil to play. Trouble is, having to wait between 4-6 weeks for them to get around to blessing us with their presence to connect. Ironic, that to have the fastest internet service, you have to put up with the slowest of service from the ISP's.
Cheers, NoDeath TooUgly.
