Hi, @white gate! In case you missed it, we did prepare a communication regarding the connection issue. You can see it here: #announcements message
The current status is that we are aware of it and are looking to collect more information so that we can investigate further.
We do recommend that you try checking again and see if the connection to the server improved now. 🙏
If you are experiencing other issues with the update, I suggest reaching out to our support with more details through this link, including the one in which you mention that you are permanently locked out, even in solo play:
