Connecting... Unable to connect.

I emailed the Dalaran-WoW team almost a week ago—shy of 6 hours—asking if I could get some help with my connection problem but haven't gotten a reply yet, so I'm posting here in the meantime to see if this can be settled without mod assistance.

I had an account on this server 6-8 years ago (the one I'm posting this with), and I want to get back into it, but I'm having trouble connecting to the server. I've set the realmlist.wtf file to "set realmlist logon.dalaran-wow.com", excluding the quotation marks, of course. This evidently works as the client's realm listed at the bottom right corner of the login screen is "Algalon - Main Realm." However, when I attempt to log in with my username and password, the first popup shows "Connecting," which is standard, but then after a long wait changes to "Unable to connect. Please try again later." with a URL following this text.

I thought maybe this was an account issue because of how long I haven't been on it, so I made a new account. I tried the same thing with that account's details but got the same result. That led me to believe that this isn't an account problem but rather a setup problem.

I followed the guide "[Guide] Game Client Direct Download Links + How To" here in this forum to download the client. I installed the client from the torrent linked, which was a 3.3.5 client, however, there were a few notable differences from what the guide said and my process.

1. The downloaded torrent never ran a patcher
2. The Data folder contains an enGB folder, not an enUS folder.
3. The sixth step of the guide asks us to download patches from a URL, but that URL no longer exists

Any ideas what went wrong?

Bump!

Nobody knows what's going on? Or did this get lost in the forums again?

Last bump then I'm giving up.
