Aether Data Center Not allowing Me to Connect

Update: got in again. Was able to talk to a fc friend but then disconnected again after 30 seconds.

At this point I don't care about getting in, I just want someone to let us know what the issue is, whether it be ISPs or an issue with the actual servers.

I've been trying for an hour. Once I got to the character screen, but still never connected. This feels suspiciously like a DDoS attack. Like someone got bored or butt-hurt and we're all paying the price. Maybe we can narrow down the affected areas--geographically. I'm in Texas. My friends in Tennessee and South Carolina are fine.

What about the rest of you? (Eastern Seaboard? Southern US? West Coast? -Who's getting the brunt of this?)

Tennessee. ISP is AT&T (wonder, if it is a DDOS, if it would be affecting certain ISPs?).
My other friends that were kicked are from Rhode Island, California, and Florida.

EDIT: Got back in. Managed to teleport to FC house. Instantly disconnected after I zoned.

Hm. Got back on for a sec. Was in the Barracks. The person from Tennessee was no longer in party. I assume he DC'd and is now unable to get back on like the rest of us.
