Guild Wars 2

Okay so for days I’ve been unable to play because of this issue. After downloading a certain amount of the patch it would come up with the message: Download failed! Please check your connection and try again. (2). After trying just about everything, I almost gave up but took one last shot at trying something someone suggested in another topic, it actually worked!

If you’re having this issue, open up your Network and Sharing Center, and open up the properties of your internet connection. Double click Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4). Select Use the following DNS server addresses and in the first line put 8.8.8.8 and in the second line put 8.8.4.4 (if there is something else already there please write it down to revert it back later). Click okay and reset your connection, now try downloading the rest of the files. Remember to change the DNS settings back as they were after you finish downloading the patch.

This worked for me when nothing else would, so if you need any further help then feel free to ask. What this is doing is using Google’s DNS addresses. I hope this works for you guys! (:

I am going to try this when I get back

great job at posting an already suggested (and confirmed in some cases) fix, just so you can claim to be the saviour.
