Please help, I tried getting help through the technical issues section but I'm at my wits end and I can't fathom any other fixes or tweaks that can be done from my end. I assume by using this section the issue will actually be reviewed by a dev and hopefully a fix will come, instead of yet another EA help representative telling me to go through the steps on the stupid connectivity guides.
