Can't register

New player, trying to register a multiplayer account. Won't connect to servers after a long wait.
Have tried:
restarting Steam
toggling steam online mode
"telnet zero-k.info 8200" in command prompt returns "Connecting To zero-k.info...Could not open connection to the host, on port 8200: Connect failed"

It sounds like you can't reach the server for some reason. Can you reach the site https://zero-k.info ? That would be a sure way to check.

I can load the website just fine

Hm, could you try to log in, then go to Help -> Report a Bug and link the resulting report here?

Nothing happens when I click the "submit" button, same as the "connect" button.

Could you look in the ZK root directory and send us infolog_full.txt? Try to log in then close ZK and send the fire. Upload and link it somewhere or email. That should show what is going on.

Checked the logs, could you please try disabling your antivirus (if you have custom one, windows defender should be ok) and possibly turning off firewall temporarily as a check?
Apparently you have network connectivity to zero-k.info but something is blocking TCP stream at port 8200 (likely because it's not a standard http traffic like visiting websites).
