6. Click the "Playback" category then click the "Delay" tab. Set the option "All Shortkeys Use" to a 10000 microsecond delay. For those that are wondering 10,000 microseconds = 0.01 seconds. This is to prevent missed characters in the EQ client. Apply the changes and click OK.

9. Input the login credentials with appropriate keystrokes as ONE LONG CONTINUOUS LINE i.e. benoebtest1<TAB>?D*u864ESzwpBvq - If you hit ENTER after the password that will simulate your pushing enter on the keyboard post password entry and auto log into the server.
