2002 Error

[NebulaRose]

Every time I push the "Start" button on the Title screen, it says "Connecting to the servers" for a long time before it finally gives me a 2002 error saying "Can not connect to the servers" or something.

Same issue my hubby & I just got booted while doing Alex
pretty sure its Aether Data Center, won't let us back on either.

Same on behemoth

I'm having the same thing. Got booted from Seal Rock twice and now can't connect to the data center, getting a 2002 error.

I've also got the same problem, yet I'm on Lamia, in the Primal data centers. Tried doing tracert on the IPs, and it's getting out of my local network, so I know the problem isn't on my end, but I can't figure anything out beyond that.

Same on Zalera and we are a low pop server

I'm getting the same thing on the Aether data center. It says something about a lobby server not connecting.

Same here on Faerie

This needs to be bumped, Aether down still after 12 hours. Can ping lobby and other servers within Aether, but Gilgamesh cannot be pinged. Appears there was also a Level3 outage in the midwest yesterday.

Found source of issue --

Recent changes from regular patching have caused issues with computers with strict NAT types. Tested on 4 different machines on home wifi, home direct connection, and public wifi at a hospital. When on strict NAT type frequent 30605 and 503 errors when performing version check, and if the version check completes 2002 errors upon data center connection.
