Server Issues?

[Ixidor]

So any guesses how long till SE cuts the BS and actually tells us why we can't access certain areas? Getting sick of wasting oils only to R0 when i hit the Aery, lord knows where else this will randomly affect me.

I just called a GM, and they said it had nothing to do with server or client side, and that it was the middle man. I don't quite buy that.

If thats any reflection of SE (anyone's call there) then I'm going to go with a couple more days.

Well I restarted again and now I can get on again and am ok in Whitegate, I am confused

You just posted that for the pretty picture...

and though you can connect you still will hit dead zones I'm afraid.

yay ig ot in XD

[Reynard]

is there any point in calling their support line or gming anymore? i got the same message from gms saying its not the servers, just try again later. Its like they arent taking any responsibility, though clearly something changed recently and its widespread. "we hope its resolved soon..." makes it sound like they know its an issue...but are they just hoping it ...goes away? if something isnt done soon, they are going to have a lot of VERU unhappy customers that will have no choice but to quit.

i got stuck yesterday, but zoning or dieing to aggro i never saw and HPing got me out of it. well, i was going to sky event today and got stuck as i was warping into hall of transference....which has no zoneline or mobs to kill me...so im totally stuck now. this is truly amazing at what bad customer service they are showing with this clearly being a big problem....

anyone got any recent tips or news from a phone support person?

Can you please explain?

I call my ISP (TELUS -_-) to ask them how to change the MAC address and they told me that it probably wouldn't do anything. They told me what ports I had were blocked though.

25, 80, 110 and 443, all ports FFXI uses. I tried to undo the locks, but it doesn't seem to have helped at all. I could've done it wrong (since I already ended the call when he told me what ports were blocked since I didn't go check what ports FFXI used until after)

If it helps any, I'm using D-Link.

Had several very annoying deadzones since yesterday morning, but after changing my IP (disconnecting and reconnecting on router page) 8 times i finally got one that seems to be holding up.

Zam is good for something.

I have a netgear router (wgr614v5) opened up IE, typed in 192.168.1.1, went to MAC address deleted it, unplugged my router and modem, waited a minute replugged and logged on to my main successfully. It most likely won't work for everyone, but it's worth a shot.

Optimum Online is my ISP if that accounts for anything.

This worked for me. Dynamis-Jeuno was one of my dead-zones. :S

OK this is retarded. On a hunch I unplugged the ethernet cable and hooked it up via the USB port and I'm back online. What the hell is happening here?

This worked for me also.... changed the connection from my Cable Modem from LAN to USB and I'm on and downloading the update. This is far from solving the problem though. I did just bypass the router at first and directly connect the Cable Modem (Motorola SB5100 btw) via ethernet to the on-board LAN port on my PC, but I still had the same problem. Hang at "Retrieving Email Account", continues after that, and then the "Main Menu" or "Top Page" didn't load.

After all 16738 of these files get finished eating up my HDD (I used the downtime to reformat my PC and reinstall OS among other *gasp* outside-world errands), I'm going to try to go back through the ethernet cable again and see if I've got a third new IP address and if that solves the problem all the way around

come on guys, only like 35 more hours until they'll begin working on it

Sadly its not SE.

[Osede]

still no luck for me, has been tried on changing ip address manually, since i'm using DHCP static IP stuff...

now there are 2 kinds of situation thought.

1. ppl can online but getting R0 (seem like most partially able to solve)
2. getting 3113 and can't get into game at all (mostly router block the IP), unless hook into modem directly.

the second problem is almost impossible to solve when having 2 or more ppl sharing the internet, damn

well...guess I must wait till monday to call customer service for this
