Can't login to spore

So I recently bought spore off of steam, and I had troubles logging in to spore. After I contacted an EA rep and he helped fix my first problem. Right after that I tried to login and it said it couldn't connect to the servers. It said to check my internet but I was clearly connected to the internet. Any advice?

    Please make sure your firewall is not blocking access.

    If you can rule out security settings of your computer as the reason I would suggest to flush your DNS cache.

  • Thing that worked for me was shortening my EA password to 16 characters. That appears to be the maximum size allowed when entering text at the in-game login prompt. Noticed it when trying for the elevtieth time to login, that it wasn't showing any characters being added even though I was still typing my password. Counted the ones it did show (16), went to EA Account webpage, shortened my password to 16 characters, tried again to login in-game with shortened password, and boom, success.
