only 3 islands?
hmm, tis all i see now too.
which is odd, i host Zoric gateway and 7 islands, 5 are running.
they are all up, computer seems fine, restarted the gateway. reconnected the islands to thier gateways. am even posting this message from the server to make sure it has internet access.

will try restarting the server

removing a gateway shoulden't be a problem. as the gateway lists auto update on the client. although, it might actually help if the client isen't recieving the right gateway info. if you can see 2 islands only in the all islands list, then i assume you can only see oceanic gateway since it only has 2 islands on it. try removing all the worlds in the Worlds List besides oceanic and then restarting the client. the removed gates should reappear with thier correct IP/Ports (if thier currently wrong on your client).

if that doesen't help at all, then i got no clue.
perhaps just an internet issue between you and me is causeing you not to see alot of the islands or something. its happened before that a player coulden't ever connect to an island when nobody else had trouble.
