Network connection drops

Hey guys!

I've started seeing a random problem when playing Everquest.

One of my characters (not always the same one) all of a sudden gets 100% packet loss, and eventually ends back at server select. All other characters continue uninterrupted.
If I enter the world again and try to enter the zone, it just hangs, or eventually times out and puts me back at server select.
If I close the application and start again, I can log in just fine.

Is there anything in the way that Everquest instances are run inside the ISBoxer sandbox that could explain this behaviour?

ISBoxer does not have any control over the network. It does use your network and internet connection briefly to authenticate your subscription with Lavishsoft, but there is no handling of any game traffic. So no, there is nothing within ISBoxer that explains the behaviour.

I would consider the issue to be something going on server side, or if you have anything else that might be monitoring your network traffic.
