Game Instantly Closes Upon Selecting NA/EU Server

After being gone for some months, I've been trying to log in since Thursday with no luck.

The game closes and gives me the 'You have been disconnected from the login server' message after choosing the NA or EU server. The screen stays black for a short while and the login screen can be seen for a split second before the game closes. I've tried login in with other accounts and the same happens. My internet connection is stable and my antivirus has Maple as an exception. I'm trying to play from South America if that has anything to do, yet my friends can play normally. I've never experienced this issue before the latest update. Please, what can I do?

    I have had this problem for the past days. I have been able to log on twice, without doing anything different. I have really no clue how to solve this...

    Any official acknowledgement on this? Still can't get to play and it's getting more frustrating since I might be missing 2x EXP, Hot Day and Week events...

    Same, I was really excited for this update. And I've been a fan of maplestory, playing for almost 7 years already. Until the update caused a ban on my main. I even made a new account to see how it would work (it only did for about an hour), and then I "crashed" again.

    Some updates on my game's crashing: Where it previously gave me the error stating I've been banned/game's down for maintenance/internet is unstable, it now tells me my client is outdated when it crashes after region selection. It's not. It's playing the V video, and I reinstalled twice, ran an installation repair probably five times. I tried launching from the nexon launcher and gamelauncher.exe in the files. I even reinstalled the nexon launcher. Same error every time, even though my game is up to date. :l

    I am having trouble getting on the game since the merge with Europe. I launch the game from Nexon Gamelauncher and get to select NA. I then select server, and then select character and then the game crashes as I am typing in password. No network problem. I then go back to Nexon Gamelauncher and select repair installation. Then after a 11 MB down load and install, I restart Nexon Gamelauncher and select Maplestory and play. I have to do this one or two times before I am able to log in without the game crashing. Once I am logged into Maplestory, I have no problems.

    I have the same problem.
    Sometimes I get into the game but I change the channel or enter some portal and kicks me out of the game.

    I am too addicted to the game, I just log off and wait 24 hours, I have a large Steam Library so I am not too worried about playing Maple. I had this same issue yesterday after picking the region the game instantly closed. Haven't tried it today yet but will later

    I was able to bypass the NA and EU select, but after a minute or two ingame, i just crash and get a popup saying about NGS hacking (even though I clearly am not hacking), I even posted a discussion of it too, but no answers have been posted. I just hope the Maplestory Team can do something to fix these situations

    this seems like your wireless adapter turning off your wireless
    go into start menu
    look for device manager
    go down to networks
    and click on your wireless
    go over to power management
    and untick " let the computer turn this device off to conserve power
    apply and try again
