Requesting server list

[Cyan.]

I can't request my server list momentarily, is this only on my computer or does everybody suffer from this?
I ended a game and when I tried to join a new one no servers would came up. Also when I hosted nobody joined, while people agreed to come. What could this be?

The game probably can't access the metaserver.

What is the authentication status, in Options>Authentication? Does it say Unknown?
