Mists of Pandaria realm is now upgraded to 5.4.8, which means you will need to update your game client, if you want to play, while game is being downloaded, click here and download "Mists of Pandaria Minimal" client, or just download the full game client. However, if your current game client is 5.4.8, and you still face this issue, check your config.wtf file, you must have these two lines below, if not, add them.

SET realmlist "logon.warmane.com"
SET patchlist "logon.warmane.com"

If that does not help, check your firewall settings.

Actually unless you want to run the HD models,and already have 5.4.2 client,all you need are the .exe files to make it work.
I personally,just to be on the safe side also picked up the 5.4.8 torrent file and downloaded the interface folder just to be safe.
So if you got the old 5.4.2 client
1.Download the exe files from forums thread or the torrent,if you want,download the /interface folder as well.
2.Copy everything to your original wow folder,make sure nothing is set to read-only.
3.play.
There is no need to re-download the whole client.
