      Tried CoA Launcher. Tried direct connect.

      Tried other servers, not working.

      Didn't change nothing since yesterday when I could log in no problem.

      Halp meh!

        Hubby says it sounds like a DNS problem.

        Did you try direct connect with the server name or with the IP address?

          I asked Goggle.

          This lead seems promissing: http://frc.proboards.com/thread/23108/connection-error-translate-address

            I tried the server name, and the IP address. I tried writing them in the nwnplayer.ini also. Tried with CoA and 2 other servers. Did not work.

            I cleared the... ipconfig dns thingy also. Did not work. Considering just reinstalling the game or something.

              It's an internet issue not a game issue afaik.

                Rebooting your router fixes this kind of problem like 99% of the time.

                      Glad we could get it worked out!

                      Steps done for anyone in the future with this issue on Windows10:
                      windowskey+R
                      cmd
                      ipconfig/release
                      ipconfig/renew
                      edit the Hosts file (Windows>System32>Drivers>Ect>Hosts)
                      add:
                      0.0.0.0 nwmaster.bioware.com
                      0.0.0.0 nwn.master.gamespy.com
                      0.0.0.0 peerchat.gamespy.com
                      0.0.0.0 45.79.167.16
                      !may require admin login to edit or save
                      restart system
                      profit?

                        Yeah, glad it finally got resolved for you. As you saw from toportime it can be a lot of different things along the way. Troubleshooting is never an exact science so sorry we had to get you to go through all that, but it looks like it was worth it in the end!
