Still no luck with multiplay. Neither of 4.14 servers from the list below allow me in.

Same problem as before. First message is "Connection is successful!" and then ""The communication with the remote host is lost."
So, it seems that I'm banned from multiplay by some new tricks implemented by TD in 4.14.
Just to update.
4.14.1 was out and I tried again.
I used clean install using Platinum DVD and several methods of upgrading up to 4.13.4. Then from 4.13.4 to 4.14.1 with official tool.
No luck with multiplay.
Whatever server I try to connect to, I see either "time out" or "communication is lost" error message. Sometimes I see just for a split of second "Connection is successful" - before the error appears.
I have some suspicions...
During installation of 4.14.1 I was forced (again, as earlier with 4.14) to search and remove damned winPcap software. Now I managed to identify that winPcap was recently installed along with update of Avira Antivirus.
That makes me think that 4.14.1 is not friendly with some other Avira files. Who knows...
Anyway, final result is the same. No multiplay with 4.14.1 for me.
And we still do not know - and Daidalos Team does not tell us - what exactly causes this conflict, which software is "wrong" for 4.14.1 multiplay?
