EA Server relay issue...

[Old Kentucky Shark]

Just a heads up to anyone who may be having issues connecting to EA. Evidently the main server isn't down, but there are issues with "relays" in certain regions. I am in one of those regions and have been unable to connect with EA for at least the last 24 HRS. I fucked with my shit here at the house last night for a better part of 2 hours trying to connect. Wanted to save others the frustration. Evidently EA isn't made aware of regional issues unless enough call about it. At least that's what the guy said who helped me. Top notch QC there. I am not sure how big the regions are that are affected, but I would assume someone like jsence is probably screwed as well. For those I have games with; I was told 24-48 hours as far as a repair time frame, hopefully that's worst case scenario.
