Disable "preload of textures into system RAM" would be my first guess.  If that is not the issue, then make sure you are not running an anti-virus or anti-spyware program.

It sounds like your cmputer is timing out on getting the connection established.  The above can exacerbate that.

Did you try what I suggested Flyboy?  Also, have you tried running a Ping Plot to the server?

Amsoil, no reason to post the same message in every thread.

Have you tried running a Ping Plot to the game server as well?

Internet related problems this time of year are not uncommon.

preload textures unchecked, allso no anti spyware is running.

i dont think its system related, i never had any problems in the game before and i changed nothing.
are the arenas sitting on different servers?

The arenas are all on the same network.  Multiple arenas per server.  What you are describing is classic Internet problems.

Have you run a Ping Plot to the server IP address of 206.16.60.39 yet?
