Constant (30002) Errors

[Jiggly]

Details:
Since patch 1.18 I have been getting the (30002) error every 5-20 minutes, and also the game connection constantly changes between green, yellow and red. At first, I thought it was my connection, however after stopping everything else it still happened, and even stranger, if I log onto another character, either on my account or another account, I do not have problems on those characters. I have also tried reinstalling the game completely.

Sometimes this fixes itself for a while, but then it does it again and then carries on doing it for a long time.

In short, I keep getting kicked off but only on my main character (Jiggly Puff) but any other character is fine.

Edit: I have now also found out that if I log onto my character from a different computer, there is then no problems, however I have tried deleting my character files in case any of them were corrupted, and this has not fixed it.

The full error code is (30002)1311538660,21271661,5

Steps:
1) log in.

2) connection is fine, until game crashes (says FFXIV has stop responding and it closes)

3) load game back up

4) have bad lag, especially when doing things such as crafting, and connection keeps going into yellow and red.

5) Get (30002) error and kicked up to the character selection screen

6) log back up

7) error occurs again after 5-20 minutes.

After a long time trying to find out what was wrong, I decided that the problem was the config files in the my games -> FFXIV folder, so I got rid of them, started the game up and the problem went away. Then about 45 mins later my game crashed again, so instead of getting rid of them again and letting ffxiv create new ones, I got a friend to send me his config files, and then I managed to play without problems. So hopefully it will be problem solved

Again, im getting 300002 error in Toto Rak.

I get booted from the game at random times. Sometimes it's 15min~7 hours before it happens. It always boots me in the new R25 dungeon area, sometimes I can stay in for about half way before it boots me. Other than that I can get booted at any random time outside the dungeon as well. I normally would DC every now and then maybe like once in 3 days before patch. After patch it happens like 4-10 times a day. Happens to all my characters. I'm on fabul server running windows 7. I hear some people say it may be corrupt files, I have not yet tried to re-install the game. That is my next step. I also installed new nvidia drivers hoping this would fix it, but still the same.

Oh, when I get booted, the game crashes and says FFXIV stopped working properly.

I'm now sure that my problem is caused by the config files that my game is creating, because if I use my own, the game errors, however if I take some from another computer with the game installed, it runs fine for 1-2 hours, but then crashes and I get the same problem as before. But then I can them overwrite the config files again, and it runs fine until it crashes again.
