Could not log in to WoW login issue

What OS are you guys running the game on? I am asking ppl that reported the problem with logging in. It happened to me today as well.

The strange thing is that the notification of being unable to log in comes without connecting to anything, so the problem lies on client machine, not server. I am running the game on Windows 10 and after researching problem a bit I found out the firewall settings in my machine changed. After whitelisting wow.exe in firewall once again, the game connected without problems. At the same time I remember my machine downloaded and installed Windows update yesterday. I am suspecting that one of newer Windows 10/11 patches contain some changes to networking logic that for some reason messes with Firewall configuration. Check it on your side if you "still" have wow whitelisted or not. If not then add it once again and try to log-in.

So my problem is that I can't log in my account neither my other account... I tried for couple of days now waited and waited for long time without trying to Login in ... and still doesn't let me. What could be the reason for that ?

What in the is this ?

Taking that off helped remove the authenticator line, now I just get the good old could not login at this time, router reset plus dns flush what worked yesterday didnt work today, this is just very cool in general how we get no official statement anywhere about what is going on.

Do you really need to read "We are aware of the issues and we are working to fix them"?

Hello!
From 3-4 days i cant log in the game.When i open wow and type my name and password it says "Could not log in to World of Warcraft at this time. Please try again later "...Never happened before.Please help.

Same problem. Any fix?.

I wasn't able to login, but I remembered that yesterday Microsoft pushed a Windows update.

So I checked that the client was set to pass through the firewall and it wasn't. Fixed that and I can log in.

Don't forget that Microsoft is trying to acquire Blizzard. Expect ****ery from these clowns at Microsoft.

That coudl be a possible solution, but in fact I am carrying these problem like 6 days ago, yesterday I download windows update waiting for that to fix the problem, but nothing changed.

That doesnt work for me. And as the mate said this problem started to appear some days ago.

Anyway it is almost (I said "almost") impossible to uninstall an update in Windows 10 or to disable the Windows Update Service xD. We would need to touch in many settings for getting that. I did one time in another computer and It was so complicated that I dont remember what I did xd. I touched all, that is clear however I dont recommend it.

This worked for me:

"Flush your DNS and IP.

Open Command Prompt, type out each of these commands, and then hit enter, one at a time: ipconfig /release, ipconfig /renew, then ipconfig /flushdns. Once you’re finished, attempt another connection.
"

ipconfig /renew did not worked.

I've tested this on three different occassions and from what I gather, the issue could be related to inputting a wrong password. Is it perhaps some kind of protection against bruteforce attack acting up? I need more people to test this hypothesis. If you have at least two accounts, don't mind being unable to log in on one of them for a while, and want to help me out, try the following steps and reply to me with the result:

1. Log in to your main account and make sure it was successful, you can keep this one online and play the game normally later.
2. Start a second instance of the client and again log in with a correct password to your second account. Confirm that the login was successful.
3. Log out of the second account and try logging in (to your second account again) using a wrong password.
4. Now input the correct password and see if you can log in (if you can't, don't turn off the first client for at least half an hour, otherwise you won't be able to play for some time :) )

In my case, I'm always unable to login in step 4 after inputting the wrong password once, even though the previous logins were successful.

I'm only interested in data from people who have experienced this issue in the recent past. It's obviously not a problem for everyone and those who don't experience it can log in no matter what they do.

still waiting for staff answerz ?:)
