I cant edit my host file as well, the icon appears as a blank white paper. I've tried deleting both hosts and Imhost.sam. still didnt do any good. I've unistalled and reinstalled origin too, still the same result. I'm not gonna stop until I fixed this issue or someone else would.

What internet connection are you using?
I'm on a t-moblie dongle.

If im answering right, COX

[MrJames079]

Do you have connection issues in other games?
After having a look, a lot of people seem to be having trouble if their router isn't a open NAT type
This applies to any ea game not just mass effect

Well, when i started ME2, at first the Connection to EA server on the mainmenu didnt work, no crashes, but it just didnt connect, I just needed to press connect manualy and it would work. But besides that, no every other game is A.O.K.

[MrJames079]

Well then to be honest i have no clue
This is pretty frustrating
Is there anything in the demo's files we can change to help?

[MrJames079]

I think i'll try redownloading it and installing it
Unfortunatly downloading it last time took about 3 days

[Shadow97]

wow, it only takes a few minutes for me. I guess i got it easy :/

There was nothing to edit, all my 100% unedited host file says is this:

# Copyright © 1993-2009 Microsoft Corp.

# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Window.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
#      102.54.94.97     rhino.acme.com          # source server
#       38.25.63.10     x.acme.com              # x client host

# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
#       127.0.0.1       localhost
#       ::1             localhost
#       127.0.0.1  activate.adobe.com

Nothing about ea.com anywhere in there. Deleting it didn't help either.

I'm on Win7 x64 and i have the exact same host file. So it's not true that Win7 users have resolved this problem. Same situation as you Cielle

[BraveDude8]

EA. Fix your game. You have an incredible talent - to repeatedly screw over all multiplayer parts of your games.

[minininjasjhepardman]

amen

[BraveDude8]

Amen indeed. IMHO, we shouldn't have expected it to work in the first place.

[thebadblackcat]

host file used to stores the info about u'r localhost not the about other websites
any websites mention in host file will loop back to u'r PC(localhost) when u trying to access that website. like CielleDuCiel is trying ditch adobe's activation servers(using PS illegally), if didn't touch the host file then there's no problem within host file.

[minininjasjhepardman]

We need another solution

same here

[BraveDude8]

This is stupid. Best we can hope is to keep bumping this thread, and keep brainstorming until we can fix it. OR, WE COULD WAIT FOR EA. But I have better things to do with my life.

[Thoragoros]

I tried deleting the Hosts file as someone said, and then launched and relaunched Origin, but now it appears Origin is saying that there Authentification Servers are down.

Either deleting the hosts file was not such a good idea, or the problem is with Origin...which it says is still in Beta. Couldn't they just have used Steam instead? I mean, I hate Steam, but compared to this garbage Steam actually looks good.

[Shadow97]

Indeed, I agree with you Brave. But still, best to keep trying whenever we have free time.

[Thoragoros]

on the Origin thing, seriously though, why did EA feel the need to implement this cheap imitation of Steam?

Didn't have any problems Thursday night or yesterday, but now I can't log online into Origin at all, even with a perfect connect - keeps telling me that I'm not online and sending me into off-line mode, which prevents me from getting into the demo's multiplayer.

[Dukamok]

Origin authentication servers are down, according to every log-in. Not client end issue.

Do you really not understand or are you being facetious?

I can't tell if you're just dumb or annoying.

[dzero]

Yep, can't get into the game at all. Not even single player.

[StormBring3r]

Same issue here. This sux.. was lookin forward to killin me some enemies.
