Disconnects, anyone?

Re: Disconnects, anyone?

Well, the IP address didn't change a thing. Routers, modems, everything restarted recycled new ip nothing. Figured spamming the POL assistance and GMs won't do much....they're probably jammed with everything and have to clean up from the weekend.
I'm now wondering if the GM petition issue they say is due to server congestion is the same problem with the protocol time out error - server congestion. Nasty little bug somewhere invented by some RMT to try to get back at SE.

anybody got a can of RAID???????? lol

Re: Disconnects, anyone?

I've had both ends of it now. Saturday night I was logged on, doing fine (I thought), but I couldn't find any of my LS mates in my little static pt LS. So I took a chocobo from Jeuno after about an hour and a half, and it began, just like everyone is describing it. Couldn't stay logged in at all that night. I found out later that a RL friend was online and I couldn't see or communicate with them in LS or friend-list.

Sunday night started the same way. Same friend was online, but this time I saw him in friend-list, and we could talk in LS. But then it hit me again. I was getting pissed so I unplugged my router and plugged it back in, and everything was normal. My buddy got the shaft as soon as I got back on, but eventually took my RNG to the dunes and got a little xp.

All in all, the "gils" thing pissed me off the most. I thought I had lost my mind. "I never noticed it said gils before in all this time..."

Re: Disconnects, anyone?

I haven't had any problems with it myself, but I was very recently in a party with someone else who kept getting disconnected trying to zone into the Horutoto ruins.

Re: Disconnects, anyone?

Well now looking at 4 days of being unable to login. Still getting timed out at aquiring player data. Did get the update though and got a little too hopeful about a fix for the problem - must have been for the GM issues.
I did find something unusual though, in one post on alakazaam, someone put in their IP address that is having same problem as me. Funny, same IP address as I have.
Talked to Comcast re: new IP address - oh yeah - like that would help. New address coming on Wednesday (another 3 days) or get a new network card for the PS2. Not like anyone stocks them anymore - have to wait days again just to purchase one online.

Sorry, I know i am ranting, but finally got some vacation time for serious play and now can't even do that. So i guess its back to rl for me.

Re: Disconnects, anyone?

Most of the population CAN get online and IS online.
There are several that can not.
Those who CAN get disconnected in certain zones.

like me... i can get online now and play, but when changing areas... i R0

Re: Disconnects, anyone?

Can anyone actually get in the game at this state? Seems people were able to log in yesterday (then get booted), but today it just times out at the Aquiring Player Data msg. Anyone?

Re: Disconnects, anyone?

=/ To those people who are having problem logging in: Have you tried asking (very reliable) friends (who are not having problems themselves) to login for you from their machines?

If they can log in and zone around without problem, then at least you can isolate the problem to your end--if they can't, then the problem is most likely located on the server side.

p.s. I will not be responsible if your friend(s) steal your items/whatever--use the procedure I've outlined at your own risk. There is no expressed or implied warranty or guarantee, etc., etc. >_>;

Done that already. My GF tried logging in to a mutual friend's account, and she also DCed each time she logged on.

I still find it hard to believe that it's on OUR end when SO many people, even in Japan, DC in various zones.

Re: Disconnects, anyone?

While that seems like a good idea in theory, I'm not one to give out my information to absoultely anyone. The only person I would allow to do that is my husband, but he's here so that's a non-issue. We're both having issues.

Re: Disconnects, anyone?

I'm having this problem for 3 days also.
My friend is having exactly the same problem.
I just wonder when we can login

Same thing for me. Times out on "Aquiring Player Data". Cmon square, fix your problem. We pay for this damn game.

Re: Disconnects, anyone?

Disconnects?? Can't even get in. On Day 3 of being unable to log into the characters. Very frustrating. Playing on PS2 - can play other games without troubles.
Was able to logon got update even got in and played!

Now when trying to logon get almost there - to "aquiring player data" then get Protocol error FFXI-3113

Anyone else with issues like this?
