welcome to the world of P2P networking, this is normal when there's not enough seed peers for a file.

which shouldn't be an issue since< http://track01.ffxiv.com:54997 > is a Seed Server.

You'll need winrar or 7zip or equivilent application. They're like a zip file, the file is segmented in 5 files.

Grab winrar (http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm) and install it. Open the archive with winrar and simply drag it out to the folder they mentioned.

no problem, anytime.

No one's suggested just using a regular Torrent client? I loaded up uTorrent, unloaded/loaded the dishwasher, came back and it was done.

True that, uTorrent has been my default downloading client and not the FFXIV one, you know why? DHT and Peerechange, those boost up the DL like crazy :-P

5-part archive for Final Fantasy XIV 1.23 version patch

Once extracted, move to C:\Users\<username>\Documents\My Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV\downloads\ffxiv\48eca647\patch and enjoy!

Thanks a lot for this! Much appreciated and may I say it downloaded in about a minute for me using this method.
