I've been having the same problem for a while now as well. Still cannot connect tho. based on what you said about nine tails, I can tell you aren't on a west coast server. So it must be bigger than just one server problem.

With so many people being unable to connect via browser AND miniclient it isn't a user problem. OAS needs to check stuff on their side. I can't even get to the main website, even before logging into the game. Also I suspect being unable to connect to the servers is what is preventing the miniclient from working. So forget the "clear cache" cliche and get someone to look at yall network plz.
