Error 2002

[Amila]

Been playing without any issues before this update happened. After I downloaded it today when I try to connect I get a Gray start button and then shortly after error code 2002 on PC. If it matters, I have 2 ps3's which I am able to log in fine only having issues on PC. I've done port forwarding, as well as disabling my firewall. Even managed to speak to the same SE rep twice but still getting the same error. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Whatever they did, they messed up something. I was messing around with my Anti-virus Firewall and it seems to stem from that. I've got Bitdefender and this game, for some reason, doesn't seem compatible.

I turn off the firewall, and I can log in and can see everything, but when I turn it on, my Received goes to 0 and I get the 2002 error.

For a bitdefender solution, I went into the application rules in the firewall, highlighted the programs and Removed Rules.

C:\Program Files (x86)\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn\boot

It's possible that the idea of excluding this game and all it's components from your firewall may help with the 2002 problem. BUT I can't guarantee that it'll work. All I know is, it was working fine before and after update PLEH.

Well I actually have bitdefender as well as my Anti virus, gonna try it now and see what happens.

Ok, just to give ya an update Genjuro, was able to get in with bitdefender. In the application rules I had accidentally hit reset all and it now works with the firewall on. However I'm not to clear on what the rules are all for so I hope I didn't delete something that I needed :/. But the games running well so I will hope that there was no rule there that I needed.

Yeah Im getting the error 2002 and when i dont get that i get through the start menu and to character selection and either it wont find the NA/EU servers or the JP servers. If it finds the NA/EU servers then i click my character and it goes to the loading screen, then i get error 90000 and it goes back to the start menu..... and then gives me 2002. They said they fix it and they didnt, for shame Square Enix, for shame.

I have been having the exact same problem for the past 4 days as Laoch described. I chatted with an SE rep today and he said to port-forward and blame my internet provider. I wouldn't have a problem blaming my internet provider if this had happened before. But this is literally the first time that these shenanigans have happened to me.

Let me know if you have any luck getting in Laoch
