Okay so let me just go straight into the problem since I don’t have anything else to say but.. Hi everyone!
Here are the steps of what happens, I’ve been looking to fix it for the past few weeks, I’ve looked all over the forums, found a few that had same problem as me, but their issues have been fixed.. mine was not.
The following is what happens in my problem:
1. Load gw2.exe (patcher)
2. The patcher is working fine 500kbs-2mb/s (for about 2seconds)
3. It gradually starts to reduce dropping example… 500kbs>450kbs>300>200>100>50>20>10>5>4>3>2>1>0.00kbs (and that’s where nothing else happens)
4. I leave it for hours and nothing happens, I restart patcher same problem.
I’ve contacted my ISP they said my internet connection is working fine, Looked all over your guild wars forums.. tried using methods from other games to fix ‘’Authentication error’’, nothing has worked, hence why I am sending this ticket.
Oh and I took my external hard drive after uploading gw onto it, and patched it at a local wifi hotspot and it patched perfectly, but it is very slow and takes a very long time, But I tested that too and it seemed to work, and same problem again this week with the patcher.
