Log in / Connection issues

[Ratatapa]

I cannot log in at all this morning or almost not at all.

Was AFK bazaaring last night and game back with POL dced.

So decide to log in but keep getting erreors POL-0011

Rebooted my PC and still getting that error.

Sometimes i can get up to my friend list or even on FFXI login screen (maybe once per 10 tries) but still getting POL-0011.

When i almost logged in FFXI i saw that some friends were on and on pol webiste it says the game is up

So anyone know what can be up?



I know that i received an email that my account free trial is almost over but i ave crysta rdy to pay

I can't do it either, my 40+ temp items in Aby are now gone because of it >_> extremely irritating. Took me over an hour to get back in the first time last night and now after an hour and a half last night and an hour this morning of attempts it's still not even getting me logged in to POL....

[Ratatapa]

I was finally able to get in

But took me about 1h of Logging clicking retry 20 times get kicked relog etc

Now i'm in but time for work lol

[GanondorfLeviathan]

Oh and my error is 1160, it's not update time yet....I do expect this error message in 2 weeks but not right now lol. And yeah work bs blah blah blah...I want it fixed by my day off tomorrow though!

From timing out? 99% sure they fixed that...

[Byrthnoth]

They did, also I logged on half an hour ago without any issues.

It was probably my quad boxing that fucked you guys

Man this morning I thought I was almost out of cereal but then I poured it and there was enough.

Thanks Isla

I'm having the same issues as Rata, takes multiple retries at every connection point (initial logon, "downloading friendslist" etc, menu that loads your player options and play button, post clicking play button), with error numbers/messages related to server being busy or down. If I manage to actually load the game, its the same hit or miss about actually getting past the "accept/decline" message, as well as getting to log my character in. Usually hangs at the lobby message.

Though, it does seem me and rata are on the same ISP from talking to him briefly.

Setting up playonline character data (2)
*waits and hangs*
Select character again
Notifying Lobby server
"Same character is logged in"
FFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

I'm not sure if this is 'private' information, but I'm pretty sure I've seen this mentioned before: anyone have the IP to the ffxi servers?

[NynJa]

I did a tracert to the IP that you connect to when you connect to POL...atleast some program I used told me this is the IP I should be connecting to >.>

I've done modem, modem+router resets, as well as connected straight to the modem bypassing the router...same problem every time.

I logged in fine again, western PA with Comcast ISP.

[Seol]

Both of your locations are Montreal Quebec, not even trying to make a joke >.>

[StevieDee]

I'm having this problem in Dublin, Ireland.

[NynJa]

Both of your locations are Montreal Quebec, not even trying to make a joke >.>

No, I'm aware, but someone in Ireland and TN is reporting connection issues. Thats why I posted my tracert, cause somethings broken on the internet somewhere.

[Cesaria]

Friend also in Ireland's having problems as well.

[Ratatapa]

Well problem is still there was in bastok MArket S this morning

Now did a teleport-holla and stuck at download data screen about to get kicked

[NynJa]

Logged 3 chars in on my pc...which took a lot longer than it should have, zoned them around a couple times, Kehhiko went from LJ into MH, then got stuck at downloading going from MH to PJ...where Nynja is...makes no sense.


It seems if you can log in and get to a zone, youre fine. I'm pretty sure I could leave my characters wherever they are without any problem. Its once you try to change zone, and therefor hop to a new server that something goes wrong.
