Hi,
Well, Alleg worked for me four days ago, I went on a three-day holiday, come back, and it's now broken. ASGS logs in fine, but Alleg can't connect to the lobby.
Although this stuff is irrelevant:
Windows Version (and Service Packs): XP SP2
Processor Speed: 2GHz
RAM:1GB
Video Card (Make and Model#):NVidia
Sound Card (Make and Model#):Creative Audigy NX2
Connection Type (Dialup, Cable, DSL, other):DSL
Modem (Make and Model#): YahooBB provided
Router (Make and Model#): Linksys WRT54G (OpenWRT Linux installed)
Internet Service Provider(company name): YahooBB
Location(State/Province/Locality, and Country): Japan
Installed Mods: None
Problem Encountered at Step #: Connecting to lobby
Which Program (ASGS/Allegiance): Alleg
What Error Message: Dplay session terminated
Comments (What you tried, description, etc):
I even tried my backup router (a proprietary Buffalo thing) and got the same result, so the error ain't in my router, which didn't change anyway. Like I said, I went on holiday and Alleg broke while I wasn't here.
Looking at tcpdump, there's a lot of unanswered UDP traffic going on port 2302 to 92.c9.5d45.static.theplanet.com. I thought R3 was supposed to get rid of all this Directplay stuff? In any case, I didn't change anything, nothing was updated (ASGS stayed at 145) but now it doesn't work. My ISP ain't fiddling with UDP since I run a UDP VPN daemon (OpenVPN) and that is fine.

Oh, I fired up the old FAZ beta from last year, and that could connect to the beta lobby, not that that was of any use to me.
EDIT: I should mention that the first things I did upon having a problem were to re-install the latest DirectX runtime and Allegiance itself. No improvement.
