Stuck at loading screen after launch

Game loading forever after launch. 3rd day of the problem. Already changed settings, reinstalled, clean boot, disabled firewall and antivirus, repaired launcher, deleted cache and bitraider, waited 8+ hours with the loading screen and atualized drivers. Don`t know what else to do. I played the game last year with the same PC. 
Instaled the DirectX End-User Runtimes and run compatibility mode.

    Are you able to bypass both repeaters and connect online without them just to determine they aren't causing the issue?  If on a laptop are you able to directly connect to the modem to test?

    Repeaters should generally be given static IPs from the same range just not ones assigned by DHCP. it appears you are running 2 separate networks on the repeaters. it can cause nat issues occasionally

    Example setup is at this link

    Bypassing and connecting hardwired direct to the modem as belgorad mentions will at least indicate if this issue is related or not.

  • This problem, and another which crashes the game after you change graphics settings are around at least since 2015. There are records of it since 2011.  

    Why doesn't EA fix this ridiculous thing? 

    Why does a player in 2018 have to do all this mumbo jumbo for a game that is still live and serviced?

    Even if it requires large effort all these years it could have been fixed by planning some work on it every month. 

    it i an insult to gamers and customers. Especiall since they ask us to subscribe. No way. 
    Do not give them any money until they fix this. 

  • What drastic solution? That's ridiculous. Shame on the production team working on this game for not having fixed it so many years now.

    If all other games old and new, and all other software works, there is something wrong with the game.

    It should be fixed, and not having people downgrade their machines. What a pile of rubbish.

    If you have something that will help the OP by all means happy for you to assist, otherwise make a post in the discussion section if you have something you want to discuss

    If you are experiencing an issue with the game make your own thread.

  • I gave up, just came back to inform all of you that were so helpfull that i could not make it work and lost all the drive to play SWTOR again. 
    Thak you all!

  • @proxos666I am talking on behalf of the frustrated players, and payers of this game (I am one of them) while the production team has obviously failed to fix at least a couple of crucial long standing problems. This is one of the two.  All other glitches and bugs withstanding, above all, people who paid for this game, should at least be able to play the game. Start it even.

    On whose behalf are you responding to me?

    Are you from the team?

    Are you  one of us who suffer from the specific issue years now?

    Or something else?
