I feel your pain, I had the same problem trying to get in last night.  A solid hour of log in, can't do anything, then host disconnects.  I managed to get almost an hour of play between disco's, then got 4 more in a row.

I don't know what's going on, and I'm not faulting anyone.  For all I know its Verizon or something between me and HTC.  But its very maddening I can go into the Training Room without a prob, or the CT.

Amon regarding the hops to HT for me in UK, that post above was showing a problem when everyone got booted from the MA.
Normal connects for me vary between 13 hops on a good day but usually more like 20 since the MA host left Skuzzy.

I've seen one train since they came out, couldnt kill it with guns, haven't seen a truck convoy yet. These new features keep coming out but they dont seem to make the game any more fun. It seems that as they come out they get limited, like I said, cv's and gv's are now pretty useless.  How long did it take to develop these features that are now relegated to limitd use?  In all seriousness, AH voice should make things a  bit more fun for the guys who usually fly alone but as for the rest of it, I dont know.  Read the article where ht talks about underground bunkers and first person shooter type action, gotta figure thats what their workin on.  Be interesting to see how that unfolds.  In the meantime, seems to me all the bells and whistles are useless if the connect sucks, I would think that would be first priority.

No one can be blamed for being upset over bad connects, and if the worst you do is come here to vent a little frustration, no biggie (at least to me). I left WB originally because of the connect problems (which were never acknowledged by the staff at the time, despite the sheer volume of people complaining). I knew there was no chance it would be resolved, so I left.

Anyone can see here that several people are having connect probs, the problem is real. HT has said he is working on a solution. I find things happen sooner than later here, so I am inclined to think this will get resolved quickly. Of course it is your money, so do what is best for you.

FWIW I left a big event sim not long ago that had far worse connect probs than this one. Still does, in fact. This isn't only happening here.  ;)

SEA is as bad as MA for me ...
can't even get in most of the time ; i'd be happy with 3 discos p/hour ...   :(
