I loaded Microsoft flight sim, and pressed connect in vpilot (I have set everything up prior to pressing connect), I connected to the network and then it claimed i have an invalid CID or Password. I reset my password once, and hand typed both the old and new one multiple times along with copy + paste. I also re-installed and checked for updates. I get these messages: 

[17:19:30] Connecting to network...
[17:19:30] Connected to network.
[17:19:30] Network error: Invalid CID/password
[17:19:30] Connected to voice server.
[17:19:31] Disconnected from network.
[17:19:32] Disconnected from voice server.

I have no idea why this is happening as I am almost certain my password and CID are correct.

I don't know what the issue is, but I can assure you it's not a vPilot bug. If you search around on the forums for that error message, you'll find lots of examples where the issue had to do with timing. It takes time for a password reset to reach all of the servers. Have you tried all servers?

Yes, I have read that, but I made my account over 24 hours ago so that does not explain why it wouldn't connect, prior to me resetting my password.

At least in the UK-1 server you are able to log in since 1513z 🙂

Every time you reset that password the "clock" resets.

I'm having this same issue as well. Joined a few years ago. reset my password last week so I thought that was the issue. It's not. I still can't login to any server 😞

Can you guys try again now? We’ve changed something to see if it fixes the issue.
