Cannot Connect to PlayOnline at all

[Kukai]

I've been having the same issue ever since the version update.
I cannot get past the "Checking PlayOnline Viewer version" on either my PC or my 360.
I receive error POL-1160 "Network is busy or there are connection problems. Please try again later or verify that cables, networking devices, and network settings are properly configured."
RETRY on the 360 brings up the same error over and over again.
RETRY on the PC brings up POL-0033 "Connection refused by server. Some servers may be out of service or congested. Please check your connection environment if nothing improves even after trying again later."
I have tried hitting "Check Files" on both systems and am still having problems.
I am NOT using Windows Firewall and have the appropriate ports open on my router.
I have NOT changed ISPs in the last year.
I have been able to play on both systems for months prior to the recent version update.
I have been going through this process for the last 2 days and have not been able to connect one single time since the last version update...

OK, found out my issue, I had a P2P downloading client open and it was interfering with FFXI's connection on the whole network. Hope this can help someone else too...
