It can be, that CCP is blocking some IP Adresses because of the attack at the moment. Btw. The Support will have it’s own “DOS Attack” at the moment, so it can take a little bit of time before they can answer. 😉 ---

The restart solution solved it for me. May not fix it for everyone, but if you haven’t tried restarting your PC, doing so may fix it. ---

Interesting. I can only get online if I VPN out of my region (out of North East USA). If I VPN to Chicago, NJ or Iceland it works fine. I can try more places around the world but not sure if that will beneficially add any information. I cannot get online without using a VPN. ---

So many hi sec tears… from all over EVE. Some one just war-decced CCP. Do not worry, give it a break. All will be fine when attacker gets borred owning CCP. Certainly it will be less than wardec period in game. Trying to login “en masse” do not help CCP at all. Please stop the launcher and give them some time to recover. ---
