Guy's, I fixed the IWNet Connecting problem (It worked for me, but IDK if it will work for you). First, unplug your computer from your router/modem, (I would like to throw mine out the window), unplug your router/modem from their power sources, and leave them unplugged for 45 minutes (not seconds, minutes). Once that 45 minutes is up, plug everything back in, then restart your computer.
If it works, then awesome! If it doesn't, well, then...

leave them unplugged for 45 minutes

45min isnt enought, 2 hours+ should do the job

It doesn't matter how long you unplug your Modem/Router... and I don't see your Equipment will solve a problem with IWNet???

Ten minutes is enough to completly reboot a modem/router

I'm assuming you all think you've been IP banned.

This is NOT the case...you've been CD key banned. Nothing is going to get you unbanned at this point. They've patched for this workaround, and yes it sucks, but that's the way of it.

This fix also does nothing for those of us with this new problem of the game crashing BTD and saying "Cheat Detected".

Sorry, should be saying 10 seconds!
