I downloaded and installed Eternal Lands successfully.  When I ran it, I got to the character creation screen. I supplied a User name/password combo and clicked on Log in, assuming it would prompt for account creation, of course that did not happen. now when I run the game it does not connect but hangs at connecting to server...

 

I removed and reinstalled but this still persists.  any ideas on how I can correct this?

I removed ~.etc/main, reinstalled again and got the select language and accept rules dialogs( happy improvement), but it sill hangs at connecting to server.  I have opened port 2000.

It could be your ISP is blocking port 2000.  Can you try connecting using telnet?  You should see something like this:

$ telnet game.eternal-lands.com 2000
Trying 192.99.21.222...
Connected to game.eternal-lands.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
G�Welcome to the new server! Please report any problems on channel 6.

On second thoughts, if you got as far as character creation, you already connected to the server.

I assume you are still using the default server not trying to connect to one of the SSL or proxy servers as those no longer work.
