ERROR 5006 AND 2002 POTENTIAL FIX

[Magnificent]

Well I got in, took me about 10 log in attempts. I guess you just have to wait awhile.

Been trying for a half an hour know on Aether and nothing just the same 2002 error. tried the different data centers and can get into them just not Aether.

ever since i switched my dns to google's i have not had this problem anymore. the link below shows u how to do that.

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.

Well your Method got me connected to Aether, now sitting in a non-moving queue after having to watch the start-up movie and all, but it is a step closer, will see, and edit with any progress and whatnot.

EDITid finally get in after being in a non-moving queue to a stuck 1 queue but in now after waiting long enough using this method, did have to reset all my client side saved settings however, no biggie.

Still a dud. All day today Aether has been refusing my connection. I can connect to data centers fine.

All my guild mates and other friends our having troubles getting in and getting really annoyed especially those just starting or coming back.. the whole drop to desktop or close out on the ps4 absolutely drives people nutz. Fix it or loose lots of people who just wont renew. To many great games to play now a days to deal with broken ones.

I tried changing the data center and flashing the DNS and it's not working. Really frustrating. Still giving some fix is a good thing, because earlier today flashing the DSN worked and I could finally log and play. But not tonight.
