Hi folks im at a lose here,everytime I log into EQ I watch in horror as my lantancy bar goes from 100% to red and then the dreaded black screen of 'YOU HAVE BEEN DISCONNECTED'.
This happens everytime, I dont know what is wrong.I am using my neighbors internet and yes its ok with him he gave me his password.Could it be his firewall or router settings?Now I think he is running direct from his modem to his machine on a pluged in line but i am on wifi,we can surf the net just fine but when i log into eq the above problem happens.
anyone have any suggestions?

I went thru a stretch like this with my own network, with a wired connection to my own router. I found re-booting the router fixed it most of the time. It might also have been a problem at the game server's end. Certainly you're not the only person complaining about disconnection problems the last few months. Maybe log into the DBG forums and see if others have similar problems and found fixes. It may be harder to reboot your neighbor's router whenever you need to but I'd suggest at least starting with that.

How's your wireless signal? If it's weak (since you're "borrowing" from a neighbor, it could certainly be) that could contribute to latency problems. Latency affects quality of game play and can cause weird problems like inordinately fast movement, delays in fighting, etc, which can affect other players' experiences so surely DBG will kick you if your latency gets too bad.

Try unplugging modem / router & turn off computer. Plug in Modem wait 30 sec and all lights on / Plug in Router and wait 30 sec and all lights on / then turn on computer...hopefully that will reset everything.
