I thought this was fixed a few days ago but I've been running into this again in the past two days.

This is basically what I got too, but for some reason only on one of my accounts, the other was never affected by the socket closed on login, for whatever reason.

When my account started getting the socket closed all the time my skill queue also decided to pause itself, and I'm still waiting on my support ticket on skill reimbursement, which you are supposed to be eligible for when something like this happens. It's really bad if you use PLEX to keep your accounts going because you have no way to make isk with this going on...

like I said in another thread, I don't think they're even going to attempt a fix until after the new eden open in case they crash the servers (that would be amazingly terrible--but hilarious--PR)

Well it looks like I joined a lot of folks who are experiencing this route blocking experience. What I can share with you is that on Thursday 02-27-14 the patch applied that day started this problem for me. So I figured that my local client had been corrupted and spent Friday -02-28-14 reloading the client and finally on Saturday 03-01-14 figured out that it had to be CCP's actions that started this. The e-mail to support generated an automated response ticket (8D2C34E9) which did not get looked at until Monday 03-03-14 and my first chance at connecting to both support and the game happened on 03-04-14 after the downtime patches were applied. Then on 03-06-14 CCP once again updated my client with one of their mandatory patches and so here I am for the 2nd weekend in a row getting the route blocked messages. (D08DD466). So this time I opened a rant in the "EVE General Discussion" knowing full well that some one from either CCP or ISD group would see it and lock it up. (https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=327921&find=unread) I do not think that this issue will be fixed until Tuesday 03-11-14.

CCP's sand box is EVE Online.  The sand is owned by CCP.  We pay them a monthly fee to throw the sand at each other.  That is all that is here, so move along. Nothing more to be seen.

Well I had the same issue the last days. But now it works for me as I am currently using a VPN tunnel to Amsterdam. Thats really strange, normally i am using this VPN connection for other purposes.

Same closed socket issue started happening to me now. Started after last nights down time, and has been happening since. I am able to connect, log in to game, and fly around for about 5 minutes on average, then I get socket closed error.

I am on Time Warner Cable, Southern California. Please fix this, it's rather annoying.

SoCal, TimeWarner also. Can't connect for more than 5 minutes.

It looks like i'm having trouble connecting to amazon.co.uk too. Speedtest.net to London doesn't work either. Tracert times out in Dublin.

It's not you, it's not the player's fault. Every time CCP routes their IP subnet through Verisign, we get this crap. They need to fix their crap. It's getting old fast.

We're not being punished through Verisign anymore. CCP is prolly making our game crappy just on the weekends to protect the New Eden Open because that's more important than us having a reliable connection.

Hopefully another patch will come around after NEO. Not crashed on TQ since the last one, but having issues on Sisi so I really hope they won't use the current build there for patching next time

My Gaming is becoming a crap because of this problem.

I've lost a Ghost site and several times during game the Socket is Closed.

Some are both accounts dropping at same time... others just one and the other stays ON... both chars at same system...

I've configured firewalls, i've reset the router.... and it keeps happening.


As far as i can see here... its been happening for years.

Now its becoming "normal" and i can't accept it.

This is not a "free to play" game.... CCP should extend my / our game time every time this happens.

I played EVE again a bit and I've already had this issue once while playing. Is this issue often CCP's side? I've had disconnecting issues from other games too so it might also be the same issue happening in EVE too. It could be a general routing issue in games from where I live.

Just as I had hoped I'm not going to have d/c issues in EVE..

If you have this issue with other games it might be either your router, PC or ISP.

It's been happening on several games, but not every one I've played, games running on Battle.net servers are the worst but the issue still could be on their end or on route there. I just have to play and see if this keeps happening on EVE too (in the same manner as in other games).

Well I know Battle.net has had some issues lately, mostly around Diablo 3.

The issue is worst in D3, but has happened in WoW too, then again in most other MMO's like GW2, Rift, Wildstar beta and ESO I haven't had these frequent disconnections happeningat all.

I have a ****** integrated network adapter though, which might have seen better days (yeah), just ordered a proper PCI-E adapter to test out.

It seems that it's all good. Then I tried to ping this address:

Seems like this address is either denying all ping requests... or things are bad on my side.

And yeah I'm getting "Socket Closed" error no matter if I run a single account or multiboxing 24 others of mine.
