I have the same issues unable to connect.
I am using Windows7 on the desktop I use for poker and until last week I had no problem. I have done everything I can think of to my computer and still nothing. Today I took my Laptop that uses Windows10 to a friends place and tried to login from a different IP address on a laptop that I have just loaded 888 onto and it is the same.
Like others have said the problem is from the source not our equipment.
QUOTE=Polytarp;4643453]Thanks for shifting the issues to this thread dakota xx.
Let's try and see what's going on instead of belly-aching about the problems...
I use Win 8.1 pro and Win 7 pro and could not access the site with the regular software. I tried with instant client on Chrome on both operating systems and no go again. I swapped to Win 10 and the regular software didn't work but the instant client worked...(I managed to bust out in one hand in the level up tourney).
I kept my task manager running during all instances to see what was taking place to isolate the programs involved with this site and saw what I expected. Linux has far more tools to assess what is going on (Server ID, locale ping response time... etc...) but I have no intention of using Linux for gaming....other than Steam🙂
Could some people look into their machines and see what, if anything, is not working or at least identify the servers that are establishing contact? Above all, don't state anything compromising. This is a perfect time for hackers to obtain access to accounts with everyone attempting multiple log ins.

The probleme is not is windows , it doesn’t t matter if U login from laptop or phone or ... u ll always find the problem, because it s in their server, they fix it but the problem seems coming back

I understand that the problem is on the server side and with another operating system on a different (accelerated hardware) system and by using some decent network tools you can pretty much map out 888's entire server side presence. From that point you can then seek out a connection rather than doing it randomly. I just find it more practical to address an issue and come to a consensus on how to deal with it for everyone's benefit rather than bemoaning the problems encountered.
I played on other sites rather than wasting my time.
Good , can u please explain more thank you

I have the same issues as all of you , instant play doesn't work as well but I can access the lobby and some tournaments are running with participants from EU/non EU. How is that possible?
Yeah some users can access the lobby , a friend of mine could connect when I couldn’t

I was able to register into the Barcelona free roll with the instant client on Win 10 but attempts to register into tourneys with thin fields and a large guaranteed prize pool fail with an "error encountered" message. If I could register for some of these games and if I was unable to play then perhaps I could squeak into a prize just by sitting out.
Here are a few articles that directly/indirectly address what's taking place at 666 ….I mean 888

I guess you gotta be lucky even to register for these games and not just lucky during them!
Yes , thank you for the articles though

Today I am having troubles getting into 888 poker, I have had this problem before but after a few mins or restarts it will work.
I'm signed into Pokerstars and that is working fine, when I try to log into 888 it says I have a connection problem.
Thanks
Pokerstars is working fine . 888 is the one having the problems

Too bad .

It is really 😱 to see, that a " big" site like 888 takes longer to defend against DDoS than ACR.
Hope they will be back and working fine soon.
888, we miss you!!!
The sites should work together to find out, who sends these Attacks and send them to jail forever.
Yes I agree with you , they must work together if they want to limit thoses attacks.
