I'm at a Hilton hotel and SL would start fine, then stop at Region Handshake. I was getting the message "Unable to connect. Login packet never received by login server."

I called the hotel's isp, who gave me a "static external IP" for the duration of my visit. Works just fine now.

Hope that helps someone.

I am not in a position to request a static IP and I have never needed one in the passed to connect. Has there EVER been an actuall solution to this problem??????????

sending it by mail might be faster hehe

but seriously, no idea but login in general at the moment is taking a good few minutes
