So I am at my wits end. I began experiencing 90002 discounts shortly after the american servers were replaced on April 4th. It hasn't been a real problem until three days ago. I am constantly being disconnected. I can't be on for more than 10-30 min before everything stops responding and i disconnect. I have done the following to try to get this to work
1. I have reinstalled the game
2. I checked all drivers and updated my router.
3. I followed step by step what they suggested below
4. Under the "General" tab, please delete ALL browser history.
- Under the "Security" tab, please move the slider to the lowest possible settings or no higher than "Medium"
- Under the "Privacy" tab, click “Advanced” and select ‘Accept’ under both First Party and Third Party Cookies.
- Under the "Advanced" tab, please make sure that "Allow software to run or install even if signature is invalid" is CHECKED.
- Make sure that all SSL and TLS (EXCEPT SSL 3.0) are CHECKED. [SSL 3.0 should be UNCHECKED]
- Hit "Apply" to save the settings, and then "OK, to close the Internet Options menu.
- Right-Click on the FFXIV launcher icon and select "Properties"
- Hit "Apply", then "OK" to save the changes.
- Please RESTART your PC now. Once your PC has been restarted, Right-Click the FFXIV launcher icon once more and select "Run as Administrator"
*Make sure your fire wall or antivirus program is not interfering with the game
Next, check to see if the following port ranges are opened on your router. You can contact your ISP and request they open them for you
▼TCP
54992 through 54994,
55006 through 55007,
55021 through 55040
Try disabling background applications and do a clean boot by opening the task manager and selecting the “Start up” tab. Disable everything and then restart the PC.
Lastly, we suggest to power cycle the router by shutting down the Router and leaving the power supply unplugged for 5-10 minutes.
- Flush DNS: Within the "Command Prompt" of the device, please type the command "ipconfig /flushdns".
- Reset TCP/IP: Also within the Command Prompt, type the command "netsh int ip reset" and then restart the computer.
- Delete the Patch Folder: Navigate to the folder using this path This PC > Docs > My Games> FFXIV ARR > Downloads > FFXIV patch (Use for either the version update error or cannot download patch files error)
Then either rename or remove the folder, the next time FINAL FANTASY XIV is launched, the client will repair the folder.
- Change local DNS: Please try changing the local DNS server to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
- Delete local files with corrupted character data, please note this will not delete the associated characters.
I DID ALL OF THIS AND NOTHING IS WORKING.
5. I even had connected my computer to my main cable modem and still i get disconnected.
I have no clue what to do now. MY ISP has no clue. they opened the ports and checked the modem and its working on their end. In fact its only ff14 that seems to have any magical problems.
I am at my wits end.
I need solutions not the same things i tried at length from the same forum robot answers you seem to paste when this problem comes up. I have done them already!!! please say there something else to try.
