Well, none of their content delivery networks are working for me.
Neither of these work for me.
174.35.56.xxx points at seattle
174.35.6.xxx points at san jose

Here we go…
174.35.57.xxx points at chicago and seems to be working. I’m getting full bandwidth

Still trying to patch! What a disaster.

I had same issue. Only did the dns flush per above instructions and it worked.
thanks.

If the HOSTS file fix works for you, it wasn’t an ANet issue — it was something going on with your local ISP or at least DNS service. (It’s supposed to automatically figure out the numerical address for a URL.)

For those still having trouble, create a support ticket so you get individual attention. There are people that check that queue 24/7, versus the forums which are checked less frequently.

Good luck.

Well, about half an hour from my last post, it seemed to ‘finish’ downloading and the log in tab came up. Man did I miss playing last night, lol. See ya out there.

No, it’s not a local problem. It’s a problem with the CDN service that Anet is using. As I could connect to the Chicago CDN endpoint with no issues, yet San Jose CDN and Seattle CDN were non-responsive.

And first line support is a disaster. I included “gw2.exe -diag” output in my question, and they responded by asking for it.

I still can not get mine to work. I was tried everything mentioned in this forum and getting really frustrated.

I was just playing about 2 hours ago. When i tried log back into the game it gets stuck at the first screen for about a minute and then I get crash report
