Hi,

I'm playing from the US, East Coast. Does anyone else get this icon periodically? I'm assuming its because of the connection between the US/France but it was sufficiently annoying.

It would come up and my character couldn't do anything but turn around in the same spot until the icon disappeared.

No, but I do have a host-based firewall.

Ok, I'm using ZoneAlarm so I see its on the list of known to work firewalls. I am using software that checks for keystroke loggers and such so maybe I'll disable that while I play and see if it makes things better.

Thanks for the response.

EDIT: Oops, guess I forgot to use the right forums :)

East Coast here as well. Everything works fine, I seldom see that message. ISP Verizon, Linksys router.

Please consult the two sticky FAQs: one for LinkSys and one for Network
