i think it may have to do with the servers on their end...i have a suspicion that they have moved us to some flaky servers where security protocols have to be just right. Which is just really weird i have DMZ'ed my xbox a few times over this ordeal and it has not worked, and then connected it straight to the modem and it has. Which from a networking stand point makes no sense.

I just take my connection as it comes which is more frequent lately so who knows. now i just need to get more clips at that quarry place...
