Clarify?

Your ISP go out? or burp?

Your server still up? Other servers in your time zone still up?

Can you patch the client?

And then again, "connection lost" can mean someone just did a major exploit, and there will be a time warp..

Prob talking about how UO drops you/Crashes aperently randomly but happens when you recall sometimes, Mostly into a crowded area or a area where some one might be running a 3rd.
Happens to me all the time, just goto log back in...

Also sometimes i think this happens if a creature is right next to your recall spot.(Personal Observasion)

Hopefully it's on the to-do list for the upcoming publish - I was sort of surprised it wasn't in the last one.

It's not just recall, there are lots of ways that you can hit this crash bug - it's any time you cross subservers (recall + crowd just gives a really high probability of the right conditions happening). Actually, I'm even suspicious that it's the same bug that's been crashing fishermen crossing server lines.

I mostly crash using the moongates (usually at Luna, but it sometimes happens with others as well). And at times I do crash when recalling (did it when recalling to doom night before last).
Usually I'm able to log back in and survive (If I'm quick enough, that is)

I crashed 2 times this morning just by recalling. First time I recalled from my home to Luna and the second time I recalled from Moonglow to my home, so it doesn't even seem to be related to the population of a certain area as the area around my house was deserted and so was Moonglow.

You don't need other people around for this bug - it just creates extra opportunities.

(edit: hmm, ok, it's a little harder to do to yourself than I first thought ... I can't reproduce it on demand)

Sounds like a different issue than the one I'm thinking of. 2D or KR?
