I been fine most all day here and now all of sudden, I got to log back in and it states "having problems communicating with Origins" please restart Ultima Online and try again. Everything is as it should be in Razor. It does it as well without razor started. Is this a temp file or something that needs deleted or moved.
Have you tried using the direct IP for the server? Try entering in 108.166.165.79 into the server address box in razor. Also make sure you are connecting to port 2593 (live server) and not port 2597 (test server).
I'm having problems connection today too; I hadn't tried on this computer for a while so even tried reinstalling the fresh full package, but upon looking at some help threads and doing a tracert it seems somehow I cant reach the login server: I tried flushing my dns cache, without much impact :\
The problem today was a host-related issue. We came back up about 20 minutes ago, and had been down for around an hour prior.
