Key activated but Authentication failed

Is anybody else getting Authentication failed when they try to login to the client after validating your key?  I am guessing there is a delay between validating your key and account becoming active for login but there is no way of finding out if you have a validated key.  All I know is when I try to validate it again I am told the key has already been activated.

    Any other feedback on this?  I would be interested to know how long it took between validation and ability to login to the game client (since it has now been almost an hour for me and I still can't).  Also, did you receive feedback on the website telling you that your key had been activated?

    immediately after it stated my beta key had been activated, it took about half an hour for my client to respond. before then, it just kept rejecting my account details and quit after 3 atttempts.

     

    but i'm now at 70% patched.

    Our registration and authentication servers have been taken offline for maintenance. This means that it is currently not possible to create new accounts or authenticate Open Beta keys. During this maintenance we are processing all queued account registrations and key authentications. These services will be available as soon as this work is complete

     

    Hmm I wonder how they are processing them ?  

     

    Suggests that if you are part way through registration pages or awaiting authentication you should hang on.......but lifes too short.  This post has been up for 3 hours so either they went home or thereis one hell of a backlog to clear.
