POL-1160

I love the way it teases you and shows the download screen then goes back to the error after 10 seconds. -_-

SE bunch of scammers, trying to connect all day and it is impossible.
I do not want apologies, I want to connect

Well, I finally got past the "busy" error and it is checking the files again. Doesn't seem like I'm actually having stroke though. Actually, hmm... I think something might be happe erhahd lelagyskl adj eickfhw eydlghc lryuwer

lol finally past the error code, now watching the worlds slowest download... very nostalgic of my 2003 download on dial up -_-

[Dettz]

10 years this game has been out you would think they would have a better update system.
POL always screws up my ip address too. Had to reset my router.

I think a good portion of us are getting that error code. I know I am still and am tempted to just try and log in late tonight or early tomorrow and hope I can update.

[Chrystou]

You're not the only one that is getting this error.

You have to wonder how many players are trying to download the update at the same time.

After pinging the server IP 202.67.62.102 I can say there's nothing wrong with my connection.
Updates that are available on this order i believe so,
1.Japan
2.US
3.EU

and even if you get in the slots you will get kicked out lol

what the heck...

I didn't purchase SoA. So why the updates not working and keeps giving me POL-1160?
And why I have to deal with relentless "Checking Repair Files" every 20 mins to have another POL-1160?

Mind that I came fresh brand new and never ever tried XI before, not till some fellows in XIV says how wonderful XI was. So why I have to deal with double check repair files everytime I ran POL?

At the very least, I wish they'd make sure that once you did get in, you stayed in. After the "checking files" part of the update, I got another "...busy..." error. I haven't gotten beyond that yet, but if it restarts the "checking files" when I finally do, instead of continuing with the update, my health insurance company will probably be suing SE for causing my stroke.

Actually I hit retry over 100 times, went thru the files scan about 20 times...and never got even 1 file downloaded! 6hrs later I'm just stressed in few hours I'll have the stroke...wonder how I'll look tomorrow morning!

Example:
Thread Title: Get disconnected from the server during the login to the game.Dowload Update

Details:
Ever since I experienced a dowload crash on Feb. 5th, 2011 at around 20:30 ESTMAr 27th 2013, I am unable to log in to FINAL FANTASY XI. Every time I try to log in, I receive a “FFXI-3001 No response from server.Error POL-1160” about 3 minutes after I make an attempt. I have tried resetting my cable modem and router but that didn’t help. I have even tried reinstalling the driver for the NIC but that didn’t help either. I have tried to contact any SE person who caused this to yell they should know this was going to happen!

Steps:

Experienced unhability FINAL FANTASY XI's team.
Attempted to restard dowload immediately after the dowload crash by restarting the game.
Received the error every time I retry (about once each 30-50 seconds upon crashing).


Gave hundreds tries but the result was the same.
After restarting both cable modem and router, made another attempt to log back in to the game but the result was the same.
I won't even try this step because is your fault: Reinstalled the driver of the NIC on my PC but still, the result was the same. (yes is the same for a million players...epic fail)
