Okay, for all of you, that disconnects after character selections, and get a message such as : ''Unable log on to game server'' or ''Unable to log on to login server''​

Here's the solutions :

1. Go to control panel.

2. Then after control panel, select Clasic View, on the left tab.

3. The first item in the window should be ''Add Hardware, select that. Don't close the ''Control Panel'' yet. You will need it later.

4. Now follow my instructions: Click next, tick ''Install the hardware that I manually select from a list(Advanced), click next, it's going to search now, click next after the search is done. Scroll down, till you see ''Network Adapters'', select it, and click next, be patient, for around 1-5 seconds, and a list should appear. There's going to be 2 catagory's: ''Manufacturer'' and ''Network Adapter''. Select ''Microsoft under the tab: ''Manufacturer'', a new list of ''Network Adapters'', should appear now. Under that tab, scroll down till you see ''Microsoft Loopback Adapter''. Select it, and click next. Now it's going to ask you to comfirm your selections. Click next, it's going to install now. And once it's done. Click finish.

5. Still in ''Classic View'', you may switch it back to ''Control Panel Home'' once we're done. Now open ''Network and Sharing center''. On your left tab, you will see ''Manage network connections'',

6. Click your new connections that you just created, in my case, I only had one in the beginning, so my new one would be call : ''Local Area Connection 2''. Right click your new connections, remember, my case may not be the same as yours. Then click properties. Now your going to modify ''Internet Protocol Version 4(TCP/IPv4)'', ok? There will be the version 6. But leave that alone. So, select that, and click properties.

7. Now, go to ''start' 'It would that vista logo lower corner left. In that small search box, type in ''cmd'', then a black box will open. Inside type ''ipconfig''.

6.1(suite) Fill in your informations into that ''Internet Protocol Version 4(TCP/IPv4), that you open earlier. Now, the only informations that would be useful, is your Default gateway IP. This is the one with the 192.168.*.***. Then fill in your subnet mask. Then fill in your IPvv4 Address into ''IP address''. Click ok, there should be a warning, but just click ok. And now your done. :)

Please post a thank you, or any comment if you have found this useful. Dont be shy ;)
