I logged in normally from the UK about 20 minutes ago, and took the wayshrine from Vulkhel Guard to Murkmire normally, followed by a bit of running around/questing.
If you still can't log in and stay connected, are you and your friends playing from the same part of the world? Logging in direct or through Steam? Which area of Tamriel are you in?
I just got on, too, and was able to port within the zone without any longer-than-usual loading screens. I haven't tried changing zones yet, but so far everything is looking good for me.
