Login and teleport problems

This started around 24 hours ago (might have started earlier, I didn't try to login yesterday until late in the evening my time). I have severe difficulties to login and if I happen to get lucky and be able to get in, when I try to tp somewhere 90% of the attempts the game force-exits me. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the game a few times, no help. I've repaired my internet connection, no help. Just now, I spent 30 minutes trying to log until I finally made it and now I dare not to go anywhere, cause I don't want to spend another 30 mins trying to get IG. Most of the time, the game gets stuck in the phase where it says 'Second Life - Logging in' and then I get 'Unable to connect Second Life. Despite of our effors, something unexpected has gone wrong'. I've also sometimes gotten stuck into 'Waiting for the world handshake' before being thrown out, or gotten a message 'You've been disconnected from your location (or something like that)'.

When I try to teleport, I get 90% of the time the message which says I've been logged out and I can either view IM chat or exit the game.

I've checked the status boards, there's no known problems at least and me being a tech-tard, I don't have a clue whether the problem is in my end or in SL's end, but I'm becoming really annoyed nevertheless. I live in Spain, if that helps, and my other european friends don't have these problems, so I'm guessing it's my computer/connection. I've not yet tried to format my computer and reinstall everything but I'll try that tomorrow.

Any help is appreciated cause SL is practically unplayable to me atm. :(

The problem still persists and I also can't upload anything at all. Been trying to log in for at least 15 minutes now, no luck.
