Back in now, flushing DNS cache seems to have sorted it, for the time being.
1. Go to Start Menu, select Run.
2. Type in cmd and press Enter.
3. In the command line window, type ipconfig /flushDNS and hit Enter.
4. Close command line window, launch TOR, play.
Will have to see how long it holds out for, but it beat down the login errors.
Edit - ...or it could just be a coincidence since everyone else seems to have gotten back in without doing it.
Still, it's computer maintenance. You should do that once a week anyway!

For those with WIndows 7 the command is not
ipconfig /flushdns
it is
ipconfig -flushdns

It's happening again today. Massive lag spikes and disconnections. I've had to decline some group invitations today on the Dark Side because I can't guarantee that I will be able to stay online.
As before, all other functions here remain as normal.
There appears to be a link. Any day I want to run Dailies as a Sith, this happens. Coincidence? I don't think so. I still haven't managed a clear run.
If anyone hears any news about this, I would be grateful for a link. I don't frequent the SWTOR forums as I would rather gouge out my own eyes with spoons.

first step... check the official forums, see if there's a link (ie affecting the same ISP)
second step... check the forums of your ISP, see what's being said there... if it's a problem with them, there'll be people posting about TOR, WoW and pretty much any other game thats affected.
odds favour it being an ISP issue. It seems to do the rounds, 02 & BE last week... Sky have had the problem a few months ago.
