though it was just me so i tried uninstalling the game and reinstalling it and now the setup file is giving me the same error message ….so now i cant even reinstall the game ….and i just bought the game 2 days ago …..now what ??

i have the same problem i unistall the game and download again the client but nothing i cant even instal it now….

Same issues. DDOS attack again?

Sneaky.3029:

whenever i try to play the game, it will say connection error. anyone having this problem also? how do i fix it?

Just read others messages and all of this topic >.<

We are all waiting for fix.

Someone fix it with:
1. Create shortcut gw2-64.exe (or gw2.exe)
2. Launch with “…\Guild Wars 2\Gw2.exe” -assetsrv 64.25.41.2 or “…\Guild Wars 2\Gw2-64.exe” -assetsrv 64.25.41.2
3. Good luck.

For me isnt worked, ill just patching but cant login =(

soo its from anet the problem its not from us???

Was warned about the workaround , be careful of info unless its from anet dev , ty

I have no idea what is that, and it’s better if i don’t mess anything up, i better wait, it’s safer like that

Hey tnx to person who posted about -assetsrv 64.25.41.2 was able to download patch.

EU.

that did not work.

Why ??

ok the work around C:\Program Files\Guild Wars 2\Gw2-64.exe -assetsrv 64.25.41.2 not working it let me down load the new file but not log in to play the game

lets hope that the data base hasnt been attacked, and that we have no roll backs …

chill guys, they are working on it, how many other times has it been down? not many!

It really isn’t nice to use that IP, because it’s ArenaNet’s primary server. Use it as a workaround, but don’t use it permanently because it defeats the purpose of the CDN and only further stresses ArenaNet.

If you were just afraid of its legitimacy, here’s the domain:

origincdn.101.arenanetworks.com

FrosT.1624:

Guess we will have to wait for actual fix from anet or use this one timer and dont turn off the game? xD

The current problem is that the CDN they’re using is basically down. Since GW2 can’t retrieve the build information, it’s reporting a connection error. 64.25.41.2 is ArenaNet’s own server and what the CDNs connect to. You’re not actually supposed to use this server as it defeats the purpose of the CDN.

You shouldn’t have any problems logging in if you can read these forums, for NA at least. EU goes through different login servers.

For NA, these should work:

Gw2.exe -authsrv 64.25.38.172 -assetsrv 64.25.41.2
Gw2.exe -authsrv 54.89.152.137 -assetsrv 64.25.41.2

EU requires different IPs for -authsrv:

206.127.146.73
206.127.146.74
206.127.159.109
206.127.159.107
206.127.146.67

Grunwald.3841:

Haha, any similar fix for the mac client? ;p

Not sure if still applies to the new client, but see the wiki on how to use arguments on Mac:

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Command_line_arguments

Alternatively, you can try modifying the hosts file to point assetcdn.101.arenanetworks.com to 64.25.41.2

ok, so servers are down then I take it.

kitten lol, yeah you’ll have to wait for them to fix the current issue to be able to download the game I think. I was thinking of doing the repair earlier before I posted but then again I thought to myself, if the client can’t connect to em’ it won’t be able to repair files.

I tried the work around and am still getting the error.

I was able to log in after downloading patch.
You just need to edit shortcut to look

Not DDos again isn’t it?

having same issue. I think DDOS attacks again. anyone on EU side having same problems?

Thanks dear.

After your post :

“EU requires different IPs for -authsrv:

206.127.146.73"

Now iam in game! o/

Big thread on the technical section.

They know about it and are working on it:

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/support/Connection-error-s-detected-retrying-115/first#post6643415

For everyone from EU, you can fix and logging for now with this http://prntscr.com/funfmy

Healix.5819:

As a workaround, try launching with:

Gw2.exe -assetsrv 64.25.41.2

(the CDN is down and this is ArenaNet’s server)

I’m in North Eastern US and this worked for me. Thank you very much.

Didn’t realize this large thread was already here. //posted same error on gen forums a few minutes ago. East coast US no connectivity.

NO to fix unless coming from devs…

None of this worked for me, maybe im odd as im in England (EU) playing in NA.

thanks, i see the thread now, didn’t realize a thread was already active on it, thought maybe it was on my end at first.

Love you! It worket for me in German. I used the first EU IP and it works fine!

Tried this, got the game to download the patch, went to character select screen, acted like it was going to load then it went back to my desktop, but it was as if the game screen was still up forcing me to have to hard reset my computer to close it.

Thanks man it works!

You are welcome xD

Other can fix it too if you are from EU.

Windows+R and copy/paste (for EU)
C:\Program Files\Guild Wars 2\Gw2-64.exe -authsrv 206.127.146.73 -assetsrv 64.25.41.2

Yup same problem here. Neither does repair work.

what IP should i Try for Asia ??

WingLegacy.7159:

For those concerned, here is a Dev post suggesting using the -assetsrv workaround

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/support/SELFSOLVED-problem-with-1-2-files-remaining/first#post4704131

Good luck.

how dos it work??

Me neither… (im from Czechia) Not working from very morning. I hope i will catch raid

Still no fix ?

SkipperCZ.6912:

Windows+R and copy/paste (for EU)
C:\Program Files\Guild Wars 2\Gw2-64.exe -authsrv 206.127.146.73 -assetsrv 64.25.41.2

This IP worked when I’d already lost hope, thank you.

Anyone logged in already?, 2 hours + passed and still i can’t log in…this is outrageous!. :/

I renames the setup file to Gw2.exe and applied the code and it worked but its super slow, at max im getting 500kb download speed is there anyway to speed it up for someone in Asia ?? Thanks in Advance.

I suppose you could read the official advice here: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/support/Connection-error-s-detected-retrying-115/first#post6643415

WingLegacy.7159:

Your time I guess.

SkipperCZ.6912:

Windows+R and copy/paste (for EU)
C:\Program Files\Guild Wars 2\Gw2-64.exe -authsrv 206.127.146.73 -assetsrv 64.25.41.2

Saved the day. This fix was quick and easy thanks to you.

Calm down, A-Net has one of the lowest down times regarding server management.
Be a little more appreciative for what u get
