Update. I was able to login yesterday but now the same problem is happening again today. I suppose it's the internet around the apartment building at this time of day. It doesnt make sense to me though. I'm able to download another game at high speed and there's no connection speed problems with any other device.

Ever since this new launcher update, I've only been able to log in 1/3 days in contrast to being able to log in 100% of the time since the summer (after solving the city changing problem).
