Hi,
Basically, my main GW2 shortcut stopped working because I had set it to use assets from IP 174.35.71.9 . It’s been working fine for a long time, but a week or two ago, it mysteriously stopped working. I had set it to this IP after some inconsistent patches/dls, and it’s been great until recently.
For those readers who don’t know what I’m talking about, this was a way to specify the server for logging in and downloading of patches. You’d specify this by modifying the shortcut target, adding a switch -assetsrv IPADDRESS after the Gw2-64.exe. I want to note that this IP in particular is the first one in the ANet guide at
https://help.guildwars2.com/entries/93290408-Problems-Downloading-or-Patching
I’ve since been using -assetsrv 151.249.90.199 , but would like to eventually go back to one which had been stable for me for many months.
thx,
icy`
