Anyone else having lots of trouble connecting to others recently?

I'm having lots of trouble connecting to what seems like a lot of players after the latest patches. I'm also using a different router than before (not by choice) so I'm wondering if it's the router's fault, or the patch, or a combination of both.

I try to join a custom game, I can join right away, but I'm going to have 0ms to several other people, and it says "waiting to connect to" several people, and it simply does not connect no matter how long you wait. Rejoining doesn't work. Before I had very few people whom I had difficulty connecting to. It never a really long time.

Ha I tried pantheon and it places me in a 2v1. Awesome.

Yeah. Ever since I downloaded that last beta patch, I have had a tough time connecting to people. Prior to that patch I was able to get into Pantheon and Skirmish games fairly easily, but now it takes many more tries before I can get a game to actually start.

I had no problems untill yesterday, was hoping todays patch was going to fix it, but now I get

Waiting For Connection Data

which sits there for maybe 20-40seconds, then I get the 'unable to connect to Nat Facilator, try again later'.

what is that current status???

After reading around some more, I decided to actually verify port 6073, using an external scanner (note: this all worked just fine before yesterdays/todays patches).

Anyways I found that no port scanners will pick up DemiGod when I am hosting a game on port 6073.

Now to sanity check that my firewalls/routers are setup properly, I fired up tomcat on port 6073, and the port scanners are finding it without issue...Now I'm not sure if this means demigod is never openning up the port or what? (I know tomcat is using tcp, not udp..but I know of know 'external port scanners that verify udp explictly).

ug..any chance we can roll back this patch(es)???
