Wayshrine to Stros M''Kai not working

JaimSandar
I logged on the Elsweyr PTS, made a new character (Breton Necromancer), logged on that character, and began in the tutorial mode.

At about level 6 or 7, I decided I wanted to travel to the Daggerfall Covenant starting area and work from there. I hadn't yet talked to Abnur Tharn for the Rage of Dragons quest.
I went to one of the Wayshrines in Elsweyr and selected the Port Hundig wayshrine in Stros M'Kai. To be brief, I discovered that the game hangs on the zoning screen at that point. A number of attempts failed to complete; the zoning screen is displayed and never arrive in Port Hundig. I waited as much as 8 hours (overnight) and found the zoning screen still displayed in the morning. The only way to abort the hangup is to close the game (ALT-F4).
I discovered that this hangup happens with any of the 8 other characters on the PTS (copied from Live) when attempting travel to Stros M'Kai.

I haven't tested all of the other wayshrines in the game, but the 5 or 6 I did test are working; only Stros M'Kai so far is not working.

    Several zones etc. are not accessible. Can't get in and can't load character who happens to be in such.

    rpa, thank you for the information. I looked at the forum thread your link points to. I see that I'm not alone with this problem.

    The last time I ran ESO yesterday morning, I couldn't even log in the PTS with my new Necromancer. The old (copied from live) characters could, and when I made a new character I had no problem playing.
    I did not attempt to go to Stros M'Kai with that newest one, but played in Elsweyr up to about level 10 with no problem.

    This morning I started ESO and logged (the first Necromancer) on the PTS successfully, and was able to take a wayshrine to Stros M'Kai without any delay.
    I hope that means that the problem has been resolved, not just a lucky attempt. I'll see how it goes as I proceed.
