I like to bring this bug to your attention again.
It is still present.

  • connect client
  • interrupt network traffic between router and external internet
  • wait a few minutes
  • reconnect internet
  • client light will be green, yet…
  • create new track, light is still green
  • client hangs

I tried to send a lock to the above mentioned account, but it's impossible (microsoft ask for a code that only you can receive).
I'll try to send it by e-mail to the same mail.

Time to draw attention again to this, still unsolved, very very annoying bug.

I have a lot of clients open and hung. All lights are green, nothing automatically reconnects, all hang when trying to reconnect or interact with the server.

This is happening a lot lately. That a client loses the connection and it get never fixed.
I thought this was fixed a year or so ago. Sad that it is back. Just today it happened again.

Please find attached the log file of two clients, both are not sending scores to the server and both are having reconnect isues with the chat. On both clients, the lights are red, and remain red. The chat lights turn grey and remain grey, the reconnect button cannot be used anymore after it is pressed.

It was discussed with Timo and Susume in veteran chat, via my separate irc client that worked well at the same time as the clients were having issues, that this is not just my issue and this is happening frequently. Susume has no trouble, Timo does. Susume runs windows 7 and so do I, Timo runs windows 8.

Susume is in the US and BP and Timo are in Europe - not that I know anything about networks but dropped packets in prime time are not unusual and may be unnoticeable to normal users but cause problems in foldit. Just a suggestion
