Thanks for the very obvious thread, folks! We'll take a look at it.

Plus all PTR servers are on USA so whining here won't get you anywhere really
Absolutely not true. I guess you're new to this PTR phase, or else you would have seen I've been checking here pretty regularly during the day, the evening, the very late night, the weekend even... :-) But welcome anyhow, and thanks for taking the time to test for us.

Q u o t e:
Ty for answer, but when i can try log in so? i have tryed 4 time and see again this handshacking :(
When we've resolved it. At the moment, we're investigating. Frustrating I know, but this is pretty standard for test realms sometimes. In the meantime, maybe spend some time on one of the other test realms, or even, shock horror, a live realm! *gasp* ;-)

Yes, we suspect this may be an issue with non-Battle.net accounts. However, the investigation continues.

Q u o t e:
soo if i was go to upgrade my account now to one of the battle net accounts would i still be able to use the ptr
No, unfortunately. For one thing, changing your live account does not in any way change your PTR account -- they aren't connected at all. Secondly, though we suspect we do not have confirmation yet that this is related to not having a Battle.net account. Though ten randomly chosen people posting in this thread all don't have one, and I can log in fine using my Battle.net account.

Q u o t e:
Lol its nice to have a blue poster that actually replys and gets involved with people instead of posting once and ignoring the thread:P
I've been posting quite a lot in the PTR forums over the last few weeks. Always try and follow up if I can.

I'm heading to bed soon, but I just want to reassure everyone that this issue is being actively investigated. A check of a blue tracker will see even the US forums are getting some blue replies on this topic now too. Though I have no news as yet, I am hopeful of a resolution overnight.

Yes it seems there has been a resolution. Thanks again all, and sorry for a few hours of frustration you experienced. Don't worry, I'll continue to keep my eye out on this forum still -- well, when I'm awake that is. Goodnight!
