I haven't played in maybe a year and a half but I restarted it and everytime I try to download the update I get the POL-0250. How do I fix this? or can I download it another way?

Either a local one (Windows firewall, comodo, zonealarm, etc.--check your logs for IP's from SE getting blocked) or your router's security may be blocking communication. Here's some IP ranges I've found for SE servers in the past:Quote:

(various game specific servers--found IP's blocked when FFXI would have connection errors)
If you see these getting blocked in any of your security software's logs, then you'll need to set up exceptions to let them through. If the blocks are happening at your router, then you'll need to at least setup the port forwarding for FFXI or disable some of the router's security to let them through. Note that if the options are there to assign the rule for UDP and/or TCP traffic--you want to enable it for both protocols.
