Aether Data Center Down

SE please.


It's my birthday.

Why has there been no update from any of the forum mods or anything? I need a soothing "we're working on it" post with an ETA to dispel my rage!

Because they don't work on weekends. Most people work during the week. Also even if they are working, they are perhaps working out of japan, where there is a large time difference.

Got into a queue.

And finally in...2 hours later

And finally out with a 90k insta error.

Actually they always have people at work on servers. It's not good business to be sitting at home and a server goes down. Besides, I feel like this is one of those congestion issues and we just have to live with it until something actually crashes. If something does, I imagine the people working are only in Japan and they have remote access to other servers like anyone else would with servers from afar.

my last try was a 5006

This is the fix I've gotten in the habit of doing. Go to a different data center, log into a character there. Once you're on, log off, go to Aether data center, and then go back loggin' on your character. It seems to always work for me.

I still can't get in. I've tried logging into a different center and then back to mine, but it doesn't seem to work at all for me right now.

That sucks. It was a method I found on forums that has been working for me. I thought I'd share. It's a shame it doesn't work for everyone.

Yeah, I think Aether had the sky (Dalamud?) fall on it. Can log into other data centers without incident, but Aether is 2002 all the way.
