Since Beta 7, I can´t connect to any server that has a track with DS. It stucks in "connected". The only way is to create a server for myself.
BUT, I can connect more easily than in previous betas to a server that has a track NDS. The lag remains, but the connection time to a NDS server is shorter than before.
