More Crashing Than Usual?

Dunno what it is, but today has been all sorts of weird. While I was in Brux, the weather changed. I kept porting around the map in the bazaar, then back to where I originally was. And the crashes. I swear that between my client and my computer, I have been knocked offline more than twenty times today.

Do these things happen from someone else sharing their router improperly? There has been a non-responsive EM on all day. Perhaps their cat has been walking on the keyboard.

Dunno.

Anyone else having problems?

I can't speak for the crashes but there was some weird issues going on with people jumping between multiple PCs that typically is caused by people sharing a router incorrectly. If you share a router make sure to do the steps listed here

The most recent restart was me and not a crash, to hopefully resolve one of these issues. Not sure about the weather however, Although within an EMs ability to change.

For me most recent crash I don't know but maybe it has something to do with Koga? It's happened three times now where I log in, it says "failed to port you" or whatever the message is when it failed to do the double log in thing and the server goes down.

Might be coincidence though :c.

Ahem, I believe it was my EM account which was 'logged in' all day, but I can assure you, I wasn't on NWN2 at all, it wasn't running in any shape or form, and anybody I have been sharing router access with has changed all the appropriate port numbers so it shouldn't be an issue.
It's happened once before to me whilst player side, apparently I was logged in as 2 different characters at once >_> I have absolutely no idea what caused it.

I think it was a server bug, which seemed to fix itself after a reset. One of the new players, Galawyn, actually bugged out as DarkMessiah. It was funny, because I thought it was DarkMessiah, and Galawyn was like, "Nope, it's me."

Shared router issue doesn't necessarily mean that the person you see as "bugged" is the source. It makes most of the server appear wonky, not just themselves.

No, it probably was someone else.

Actually I've been having some issues with crashing during transitions to a another area. I thought it might have been on my end though.
