Cannot stay connected: "An error has occured on the game server. (30002)"
Details:
I am attempting to return to FFXIV after quitting several months ago. I re-installed and am fully updated, but find that I am unable to stay connected to the game for more than a few minutes at max. I did not have any problems before I quit.
Steps:
1. Log in.
2. Wait between 10 seconds and 2 minutes. During this time the game plays fine: I can chat, I can interact with NPCs, I can interact with my inventory, change linkpearls, and change abilities and equipment.
3. "An error has occured on the game server. (30002)"
Date & Time: I have tried to play morning, day, and night PST. I cannot stay connected regardless of time.
Frequency: Always.
Platform: PC
PC Manufacturer & Model Number: Homebuilt.
Operating System: Windows 7
Graphics Card: Radeon HD 5870 x 2
ISP: Shaw Cable
Type of Internet Connection: Cable
Character Name: Shimazu Takahisa
Race: Roegadyn
World: Wutai
I can play other games without any trouble. I have entirely disabled my windows firewall, and I have forwarded the ports that I believe FFXIV makes use of on my router. I'm running out of ideas.
