For logging in, I did the “Launcher, Connection Failed, click OK, click the Connect button” thing.

For Chat access, I clicked “No” to the “Retry?” prompt, undocked, warped to a combat site, noticed that triggered a message in Local, typed Hello in local and that triggered my other chats to become active.
