Quoting AntraDislikedHi
It all depends on who you are using for mt4 data feed.
This happens with all the platforms from time to time so I always have another mt4 plat on standby with all the indicators and templates in place. In fact I think I have two on standby. I mainly use Alpari and then have SBFX and Interbank ready to go just in case. You just have to be aware that there are time differences between all the plats.
If after a day or so the plat is still down try re installing as this will often fix the problem.

Quoting fxnewbie 71Dislikedi have been having this problem for a few hours already and during this morning australian's new releasing time.i thought its my 'corrupted' software so i redownload the software but the problem still remained!Ignored
Quoting GrasshopperDislikedI am using MIG, that appeared to be the only choice when I downloaded MT4 from the MetaQuotes website.
So are you saying that MT4 connectivity problems are almost normal & expected? And, requires uninstalling & re-installing on a regular basis? How can such an unstable platform be so popular? I use TradeStation & have never heard of or experinced such an issue.
Am I misunderstanding or confised?
Please help.Ignored
Quoting fourexDislikedMIG demo has been down a lot lately. However, their live servers have been rock solid even during high volatility.Ignored
Quoting AntraDislikedThe problems with connectivity 'might' happen on a regular basis and then you can go months without any loss of connection and it all works perfectly. It is just something to be aware of and to be prepared.
The only time I have to re install is when the problem is at my end somewhere and I know that everyone else on Alpari has a connection. Only takes a few minutes to re install and the templates and indicators are still there if you install to the same place.
I think it is a great FREE platform!Ignored
Quoting fourexDislikedAlso, keep in mind, connectivity has little to do with the Metatrader software and more to do with the broker of choice. I have found MT4 to be very stable.Ignored
