How does UDP work (basically)? and is it something which has only (i assume) been put on the lobby server in the recent version (29/12/06) because i never had this problem before and all other games are still working fine.

the problem I think is the same problem you have on the site - sometimes the browser says you are unable to connect to host.

when does it say that?

every now and then, temporarily, for like about 30 seconds I am unable to connect and then it comes back.

Well i am rarely ever able to log in to the server but it always says that it has established the connection.

Something else that i have noticed is that it now takes much longer to get the list of games and players online etc.

If u are unable to connect to a webpage for close to 30 seconds...
U really should try testing your connection out & see if it dropping a packs / latency. Lobby Server will time u out, if it doesnt recieve PING message from your client in 30 seconds

The longer logon tiem is most likey due to new addition LOGINEND to tell client it has finished receiving all battle data & users info upon logging in.
i.e
before it would be possible to see games that appear to be open, but really arent cause user is already ingame (client just hasnt recieved info that the host is ingame )

So it wont let me log in because it doesn't recieve a Ping from my computer?
I have no problem at all with web pages.
