Good afternoon and thank you for posting on the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.

Unfortunately, we've been experiencing network issues due to DDOS attacks. These attacks have been intermittent, affecting login and connection stability for the game. As such, you may experience issues like the ones you are seeing now.

As the attacks have been intermittent, are you still experiencing this issue? Has anything changed with the error message (any different error codes)?

We hope we can be of assistance in helping you enjoy the exciting world of Final Fantasy XIV!
