Connected to Global... but no pings, no connection to any se
I've played online in the past with no problems, on various servers. But after a long time off from playing the game, I've come back to find that I can't connect to any server, anywhere. I can refresh the list.. see them all.. I'm totally connected to global server.. but all pings and player counts are unupdated, and trying to connnect to any server completely fails.
I am behind a linksys router, but this has worked fine in the past. I can't think of what settings I've changed. I've tried to open all the ports suggested on the MS website for DX8 connections (2300-2400, some other one). No change. I can actually use the DOS tracert to ping Elite and other servers fine, but in the game, nothing will connect or ping.
