Excelsior

So I recently joined the shard and my roommate showed it to me. After downloading it and playing it for awhile, everything ran fine. However with the shard, I had to make an account in game on his account, which leads me to believe it has something to do with this issue.

Anyways, I can't log into any other games BUT this shard. Even other UO shards will not let me play. I uninstalled it for the time being and now I cannot play games that require a third party client to connect to the internet. Furthermore I got an error message saying that I have the same DNS as someone on the network.

Anyone else experiencing this issue? I am about to reformat my computer to wipe all the files clean. Any help would be appreciated.

As far as the your account being attached to his main account, that is not the issue. My son's account is off of my account and we are logged on together all the time. Needing some more details about the any other game issue. With regards to other UO free shards the setup you have is for this shard, other shards run different patches which would cause you not to be able to play on those. Not sure about the 3rd party client internet issue either.

no problem at all! you see, you have already found the best shard. your computer is just looking out for you!
