So, all attempts to join the beta opt-in by sending my computer information to Blizzard have failed. I tried from multiple browsers, deleted cookies and deleted the file entirely and re-downloaded with each attempt -- all to no avail. Could it be because I'm tethering from my iPhone for internet? After all, it reads my network address as '0.0.0.0'.
The error message is:
"There was a problem sending your system information to Battle.net. Please check your internet connection, close all applications and try again. For further assistance, please visit Battle.net."
Unfortunately, the website was no help. I couldn't find anything on Google either. Perhaps I should simply use a friend's proper internet connection to complete the opt-in with their system information? Or would this become an issue if I were chosen for the beta and my system didn't match the profile when I attempt to download the client?
Any suggestions, my fellow D3fans?

I make sure people go to jail. The only thing more fun is Diablo 3.
My brother has an I mac and he is having the same problem even though he has cable internet. That doesn't really help but maybe it's an apple issue.
I'm a PC guy and I'm on an hp laptop, actually. I dislike Apple. I'm even replacing my iPhone with an Android in a few months. So I'm not sure what to do now.

I would more than likely bet that it's because of the tethering. You could theoretically run the system info on any PC and still have a chance at beta. I used to have my beta info set to an old PC and on my new PC i still managed to get in one of the WoW betas on old info, so if you have access to another computer try it on that.

Alright, well that's definitely comforting. I'll go ahead and drive over to my in-law's house to run the system info tomorrow. lol. They know nothing about computers so I won't even try to explain any of it to them. Thanks for your input.
