having a lot of trouble with Master Merchant

[iarao]

esp since homestead. i almost always have to uncheck it to get into the game. my firewall is off. MM is updated. i have reinstalled it with minion. once i get into the game, if i check it and reloadui, there are not much better odds that it will keep me in the game. get error 303 connection to server timed out and sometimes the general error with no number.

any ideas?
