Can confirm that this works. We'll see if I actually get into the game but I got into Aether by using the Google DNS.

It probably won't, my DNS has been set to google's for ages, and I'm having the problems too.

Edit:
I can get to the character screen now, but stuck in the same spot in queue for the last 5 minutes..

Unfortunately this doesn't work for me, I still get all the 2002's.
On the (tiny) upside, a dev actually responded to the issues:

They seriously need to do something about this though. WE are the people paying them. It's OUR money that's allowing them to continue this game. Is seems only right that THEY should provide a stable play environment for every one of those payers. If they can't, then why should we keep paying them?

it's not really a fix anyway.. though I got in problem free earlier and played for over and hour, when I logged out I got an odd error popup. I didn't think about it much. If I see it again I will take a screen shot. At least all my characters have returned. Right now I can't get in again. error 2002 window 7 pro.

2002 / 5056 needs to stop really.. its coming direct from your data center everytime i LOGIN it works then goes into character and it pause for few good sec and disconnected.. this need to stop really. i know its NOT coming from my end.. its on your end.. so take a look at it

So what genius designed the game to completely kick you out of the program when you run into a lobby error?
