SOLUTION/FIX : Error 3102: Character not successfully logged out

So I came across this solution that worked 100%. I have a really bad internet and it gets to me at times when I get error 90000 followed by 3102.

Fix:

- Leave the game on the [Start] screen.
- Windows Key + R, Type cmd
- Type ipconfig /flushdns
- Press Start, Login, Voila!

The problem relies with the game relying on your DNS instead of IP. This was used as a preventive measure incase you logged into different IP's and the game locking you out. The standard DNS makes the server think the character has logged in and is still there. The poll times between server host and client would continue even as the user is disconnected. When you try to log in the connection gets resumed and the server still thinks you are in the game.

When you flush your DNS, the game takes priority over the new DNS and listens.

I've tested this countless times and this works as a temporary solution. Where I get kicked I manage to get in within 20 seconds if the server queue isn't full.

To make thing's easier, I've included the code for a bat file with the following code. You just need to press enter thrice each time it asks and enjoy!

Code:

---

@echo off

echo .*** RUNNING IPCONFIG /FLUSHDNS ***

pause

ipconfig /flushdns

echo .*** STOP THE DNS CACHE ***

pause

net stop dnscache

echo .*** START THE DNS CACHE ***

pause

net start dnscache

You just got lucky cuz the problem is on the server not on your side

Proof when you get 3102 go on your PS3 and it will still be there (Unless server logged you off while changing platform)

Well PS3 you can still flush your DNS by swapping from wireless/wired connection via Settings/Network ;) That fixes the problem as it recaches a new DNS everytime.

You didnt understood what i meant lol but ok if it makes you happy

I understood. It's not the sever, its your connection that is still the same. Your network ISP->router->PC/PS3 , the ISP provides you with a DNS, which in USA uses the default for google's free one would be 8.8.4.4. That sticks regardless of what device you use. PS3/PC/Phone because all connections are relayed through that DNS. When you flush the DNS it goes from PC/PS3->Router->Grab New->Router->PC/PS3.

The best analogy to explain it would be wearing 2 different pair of shoes, it doesn't matter because both feet sizes are the same. If your foot changed from 8 to 9 inches then it affects both pair of shoes.

YEah no you don't know how Network works

when you connect to your home network, Internet service provider (ISP) or WiFi network, the modem or router that assigns your computer's network address also sends some important network configuration information to your computer or mobile device. That configuration includes one or more DNS servers that the device should use when translating DNS names to IP address.

Yes, apparently you're right and the internet is wrong. Let's all go to bed now.
