Cannot connect to IB. HK Server

Anyone has this problem? I have been trying to connect all night today, and wasn't able too.

This error is shown on the log:

XF 00:21:11:492 JTS-Login-4: Connecting host=gw1.ibllc.com.hk port=4001 ssl=true timeout=0
XF 00:21:32:492 JTS-Login-4: Error: creating socket failed - java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect
XF 00:21:32:492 JTS-Login-4: NextConnectTime: 00:21:10:632 base=2590000 range = 20000

I tried it on multiple computers, and same version.

I was able to login fine this morning and afternoon, just cannot login now.

The only thing that was change was I activated the secure transaction program.

 

Hello,

Has been fine all day here for me. I'm not using their 'security' features.

My best regards,
MK

 

I received email from IB said it's mandatory or else some of the "features" will be disabled.

 

Ok - I have received no such email.
