Anybody having connection issues tonight? 

After the log-in screen the game sits and waits to connect and then I get a Error: Was unable to connect to account server, check your internet connection....yada yada.

My internet connection is working fine outside the games.

Do you have Wirless Internet Connection?
If you dont... but for anyone who does.
Make Sure your CONNECTED BEFORE you do this.
1) open up the wireless connection screen that allows you to "Refresh network list"

2) on the left hand side there is a selectable option saying "Change The Order of Prefered Networks" (it has a star)

3) it should open up a menu with an check box at the top saying "Use windows to configure my wireless network settings"

4) uncheck the box.

What this does:
Windows has an built in automatic wirless network refresher which at about evrey 20 min intervall disconnects from network then reconnects to it. This FEATURE of windows causes some problems in BF2.
When connecting to the internet MAKE SURE the box is checked. windows will connect, go and uncheck the box AFTER you are ALREADY connected. This stops windows from fiddling with the network settings. You WILL stay connected and evreything will run fine.
