Result of bad internet connection. Had this often, and the cause has clearly been that for me at least.
You could try moving to a different room with the computer. The connection varies in my house depending where my laptop is.

You said that your internet connectivity is fine. Are you by any chance downloading (or uploading) large amounts of data while you play? This can sap your bandwidth, so that when the game tries to communicate with the server, it struggles, and you get an error like this.

I also got this message occasionally before adding more memory to my PC. It was slow before, struggling to run windows 7 with just 1.5Gb of RAM. I added 4Gb extra this week, and all my game problems have instantly vanished! No lag, no chat loss, no game disconnections!

i am also being disconnected every 5 minutes as are some fellow guild members.
cleared cache and all that. even scanned my pc.
internet connection is fine, all my other games work fine.

Yes i got the same error message and i tried three browsers. I update flash, same result.

Getting same error. Tried on 2 different PCs, 1 is an all powerful gaming machine and there is no internet issues.

exitus, Nibber:

Extended maintenance reminders are everywhere, including main page and forum: http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/22818-Reminder-Extended-Maintenance-Reminder

Normally during maintenance it doesn't even connect so I thought maintenance was finished.

Servers will most likely be up and down to run tests etc for the changes they make- but locked to the general population so indeed you wont connect

[Garia666]

blocking the play now butten while doing maintenance could be an idea. and saves allot of frustration

If i miss out on my daily log in bonus, i will be ropeable! You got 2 hours to get it sorted!!

You could send a mail to one of your in-game friends and ask them to visit your island today and buff 3 random buildings, as far as I understood that will also give you your daily login.

On a different note: the 250 free gems you'll get as a compansation for this down-time is of course worse compared to the 45 gems after login for 7 days?

The adventure clocks get paused during maintenance

Now, this is a good idea!

This keeps coming up and I finally remembered to snap shots on both ends, this is what happens to Adventures during Maintenance:

How I found it after Maintenance: http://img607.imageshack.us/img607/4263/advtime3.jpg

And how it ended after I went off and did some other things:

This was a longer than usual Maint, I don't think quite this much time is added for the regular ones.


Edit: And... the debate continues. If anyone else can confirm or refute "time added" for other Maints that would be grand, otherwise I'll check back in a week.
