Got dc'd thursday and havent been able to get back on since.
Ok I have
Acer
Aspire X1420G
Proc: Amd Athlon II x4 645 processor 3.10 GHz
64 bit operating system
Windows Home Premium
service pack 1
I get the POL: 1160 Error, which is the cable, hardwear etc error.
Ok so I checked all that out. No problem and I can get on the internet everywhere else EXCEPT most SE sites. I can get on them occasionally but not long enough to post, for instance in the FFXI Forum tech support forum. Also not able to access Support through Playoneline.com although able to pull that site up. Occasionally I can pull up the management site. Long enough to have input the keys for Abyssea on a second account. And to input the key for the Destrier hat which I did before I realized the extent of my problem.
I have talked to my tech support at my IPS and they have run me through the rebooting etc processes to no avail.
I have gone through all my potential blocking features that I can think of and made them all very low protection. At one point I even disabled my virus checker, AVG to try to connect the game. (its back up so no poking around!)
I tried, also to bring the game up on my husband's computer. No luck. At all. Same thing.
Ok I have run out of ideas. Anyone have one? or two? Please? I need help for my addiction!
