Battlefield 2142 EA Master Server Issues

So I recently bought BF2142 again via Origin. However, every time I attempt to connect to the server at the beginning of the game I get a message saying "cannot connect to EA Online". I have tried multiple fixes, I manually opened all the ports, disabled the firewall, all of that, and none of it worked.

Am I missing something? Nothing seems to work. Are the servers retired? I'm really getting frustrated. ANY help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
