I find your lack of punctuation disturbing.

that post gave me cancer

Your annoyance with his post's grammar still hasn't reached my annoyance with not being able to play since buying the game due to character creation restrictions.

Take it from me, even if you create a character, you still probably won't get to play.

I've been able to play just fine ever since the last patch. I rarely encounter any problems anymore.

I got that like one time a couple days ago. I waited about half an hour and was able to log back in again.

Been happening since launch day. Have tried multiple times everyday throughout the day. My character is only level 27 because I managed to get him there during early access. Have been unable to play since.

Maybe it is a problem with your internet connection. What kind of setup do you have?

Well that sucks. Maybe try another server, or maybe it's an issue with your computer. Most people are able to get in with no issues now, so I wouldn't say it's a huge issue anymore just a few isolated cases. I went from playing on pc last night to logging in on my ps3 at 10pm on a friday night and got in a queue of 8. Also server transfers will be an option later, I would feel playing on any sever and moving later is better than just not playing.

This occurs on every character, no matter what server. There's no problem with my connection as there are rare times in which I am getting into game and playing like a quest or two before getting 90kd. This issue doesn't happen with any other game I play that requires connection to a game's servers. My ISP is not the cause because I talked to them. While I may be in a college dorm, it is VERY good internet, perhaps better than the internet I had at home. It's just as open NAT as my home's router is as well. This is literally a problem that can't be fixed from everything I can do personally.

I don't believe system info is required for a instance in which I'm receiving no data packets from SE. I.E. Getting R: 0 everytime while my sending is phenomenal.

Have you tried releasing the IP from the TCP stack and then renewing it? Worth a shot.

Also check to see that the firewall is allowing a connection to the required ports for the game.

The whole not receiving packets thing leads me to believe it could be a firewall issue.

I have no idea ho to do that or what that even is. lol

But i've tried both my firewall and anti-virus turning off and such and that didn't work.

I have never lived in a dorm but I tried playing UO way back in the day in a friends dorm room and we couldn't keep connection for shit there. I'm not seeing what you are but it could be something weird with that if you're on like the school line, have you played any mmo's before on this service or any other persistent online game? I've seen large networks like this refresh your connections often and that could be causing the disconnect. But idk what kind of internet a college dorm has, I haven't been in a dorm room in 10 years due to the fact of being old as shit now.

Guild Wars 2, Tera, League of Legends, Smite, Torchlight II, and WoW all work flawlessly on this connection, FFXIV is the only black sheep.

The WiFi router you are connecting to may be to blame as well. Perhaps it is blocking certain ports. Unfortunately if that's the case there may not be much you can do to change that being as it is unlikely you have admin rights to the router. Maybe if you were to connect to a proxy you could somehow circumvent the restrictions.

I'm connected via ethernet, but I understand what you mean. I can go have a talk with the ISP which is the school itself, monday. I'm not sure what to tell them though, forward ports to address BLANK?

Oh sorry, I thought you were connecting via WiFi. If they are willing to unlock those ports for the game..assuming they are indeed locked..then that should help.

Shouldn't need to be forwarded..just not blocked should be good.

Where could i find what these ports are though?

UDP
55296～55551

TCP
80, 8080, 443, 55296～55551
These were the ports for the beta test. I assume they are still correct though.

Well, I appreciate the help, hopefully it helps, but the times I've been able to get through still lead me to believe that there's no issue on my side. But, we'll see.

There is a chance they may have recently blocked those ports. They may have noticed an increase of network activity on those ports and decided to block it. Just a hypothesis, but seems plausible. Good luck.

Oh one last thing..this one is a long shot. Do you have more than one network adapter in your computer? Sometimes they can conflict and cause odd problems. If by chance you do, disable the inactive one and see if that does anything.

Do you have an active wireless adapter too?

Um if you are running Windows 7 go to the control panel and then the network and sharing center. Then click change adapter settings. What do you have listed here?

I only have local area connection. I don't have any wireless adaptors, this is a desktop.
