When trying to load LOTRO I can log on, pick the server and character, but after clicking on the "Enter Middle Earth" button the loading screen comes up and nothing else happens, it just sits there with the ring pulsing and nothing happens with the progress bar.
I've tweaked the firewall settings as suggest, even tried turning the firewall off, with no change.
Running the trace test showed a good connection with no packets lost.
The computer is running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit and is hard wired into the router.
It really doesn't seem like a connection problem, it seems like the software is locking up, I'm looking at it right now and there button with a link but it doesn't respond to that either.
My little old laptop, running Vista Ultimate connecting to the same network (and router) through WiFi runs connects fine and I can play the game on it.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, I want to play this game on my big system, thanks!
