Ok basically, now and again when I sign onto the GW2 client when it’s the little box window when u enter your info. It logs on then sais stuff like “Waiting for authentication” because it keeps logging me in with a random network thats not even mine…like I get network authentications for MY log ins on networks in darby or wales or crap like that and I just dont get why its not recognising MY own network when I sign in.

This would be more a tech support issue, I’d think.

Are you at least in the UK?

This can happen as your IP address is owned by your ISP who operate in multiple cities and may share one cities pool of ip’s with another city when they need more IP’s

so long as the location is nothing drastic like its on another continent (like china one day and america the next) you should be ok. For example my IP sometimes says scotland and sometimes england and I certainly don’t live in both places at the same time. I personally do not associated my network with my authenticator simply for that extra security thakittens guaranteed to ask for the 6 digit code always (and what is a few seconds to type in 6 digits each day to guarantee the safety of my user account)
