Can not join instance

Cant log into the game on any character, League or standard. same error on all attempts.

Same for me! Glad to know it's not just my problem xD

cannot connect to instance...

Same for me on both PoE1 and PoE2. On PoE1 I can log in on standard, but if I go to a different zone it kicks me out.

PoE1 standard= can log in, but cannot zone to play.
PoE1 Keepers = error, cannot log into instance.

PoE2 standard= error, cannot log into instance.
PoE2 Druids = error, cannot log into instance.

cannot connect to instance and cannot join any other server other than Amsterdam

Cannot join any zone outside town on cali server : kicks me to login screen on attempt

Swapping to texas fixed this issue.

This isn't the first time cali servers have been bugged and unable to create/join instances recently. Very dissapointing/worrying for the future of league launch, since this hasn't been an issue on cali servers in the past when everything had gone to shit for everyone else. I guess its my time but very big sigh.

Same. Cannot log into instance on POE2. My husband is in the same room as me and he could log in to one character but not the other.

Same for me. Tried different characters, rebooting PC.

Bump. Both Steam client and stand-alone client.

EDIT: Switching from DC server to Texas server worked. Ping goes from 10ms to 40ms but I'm in.

The beginning was:
1. Playing in map the ping increased to 30 than 60 than 180ms (At home ping was 24ms)
2. Full stop.
3. Little jump than drop out.
