I use ma 2Mbit connection for like 5 years now and i since 3 days I can`t connect to any server :/ I don`t even see no active servers and in chat it says I`m getn disconnected over and over :/

I am now having this same problem. I cannot see any servers under the server tab.

The servers are obviously up with lots of players in them... have you tried reinstalling with the latest installer?
What OS are you running?

I've been doing great until today also - flawless although with the known issues. Today, just about every time I come in thru GCQL I'm getting immediately disconnected (reconnects/disconnects fairly often) and I can see no servers at all.
I'll take a shot at a full reinstall next...wasn't going to mess with it until I noticed others mentioning a problem.
Last successful connection for me to actually play was last night.
Does seem like something must have changed.

We have been having a lot of players with the same issue.

Just got the reinstall in - everything looks good so far although I'm downloading a game patch atm...just gotta quickly change my logging status, of course before I go any further.
As a note, I was still using the old beta GCQL just like what was running a month ago. That may be part of the problem and that might put it in the category of a non-problem. Just don't do it that way.

I got it solved but it makes no sense ...
I runned the CLIENT.EXE file and the game started updating, after the update i got an error screen with a message that i need to reboot, so i did. After rebot and running GCQ it says me that I don`t have Dark Space installed o_O It downloaded and installed autoaticly, the problem was gone after that.
Could that be becouse of some recent patch??

Sounds to me like you were not patched correctly in the first place..

Could be but the game was always updating by its self and ther was no complications.

Could be... The self-update got removed from the client when 1.5 got released... you've probably have been running the client directly without any code/data updates.
