I am having this issue updating FFXI. I've even added a firewall rule to allow all IN and OUT, on both TCP and UDP to pol.exe, and still I get POL-1160 Even set my alarm for 1:00AM (PST) and tried again, but still the same error. I have never had problems at all updating FFXI in the past before this latest update, even on a slow Satellite Internet service.

If I click Retry, it starts all over from the checking files, then begins to download up to D:ROM/346/84.DAT and throws this exception. There no connection problems on my router, and I've contacted my provider who also reports no connection issues at their end, and all ports are open on their servers.
