Error 2002

[Carmentisis]

Same problem. Had a network engineer look at things my end and saw no issue. I still get the error when all firewalls/antivirus software are turned off.

Oh and my husband is on the same net connection as me and has no issues. We have even swopped ethernets and router ports.

I was directed here by a mod. He/she said there would be a solution here. There isn't. I can't log in still.

Mod shutdown another topic and redirected here. Still no solutions, 50 days later.

My bf is having this same exact problem. ; ;

I also have this problem.
I logged out for a minute and when I tried to log back in it kept on giving me this error.

Edit: After restarting the pc it doesn't give me the error... Not sure how is that related...

Same problem 2002. Was fine before maintenance and now the start button stays grayed out and eventually gives me the lobby connection error.

Tried turning off all antivirus and firewalls, restarted, didnt work.

For me everything has been smooth since the 12/11/13 patch. I had trouble logging on last night. Whenever I get in-game about 5-10 minutes I would be kicked out with an error 9000. And now I am getting 2002's consistently with the start button grayed out. I just started the game this weekend and I must say this isn't the best first impression as a new player. :/

Agreed. I havent had any issues with WoW in years. And i can still to this day log in no problem. This was my test run of FFXIV and after checking every couple of hours for the last 24 hours.. no improvement, and no suggestions of what i can do myself to fix it. Doesnt bode well indeed.

I wish they would tell us what the errors actually are instead of just 'the LOBBY server (of all things) connection encountered a problem.'

I no longer have 2002 disease ^^
