Guild Wars 2

Error Code=42:1000:9001:4170:101 and 7:11:3:191:101

Been playing the game fine for the last few months. Since the day after LA patch i’ve been riddled with these two error codes. Game is completely unplayable as I’m already disconnected when I log in and just watch people run into walls until I get either error message. I’ve made exceptions and disabled my antivirus, reinstalled GW2, try changed the /cilentport80 thing. Nothing works. Every other game works perfectly fine.

All is vain.

Fully agreed on this. I can play the game sure but I’m unable to connect to my Guild or use the LFG and the game randomly decides to drop the login problem window notification at random times disrupting whatever I was in the middle of.

Very frustrating. I’m nearing the end of the PS and need to rely on either Guilds OR the LFG. Yes I did my research. None of those methods work.

exact same problem, same ingame issues and error messages.
I feel like I’m wasting my time logging and re-logging for nothing.
it’s getting very frustrating, some help would be appreciated.

Same issue from Spain! Not able to play and it’s Saturday!!!! You must do something with that please!!!

Here’s my Network Diag. Very frustrating as I’m going to be missing out on Guild Commendations and Pristine Relics through no fault of my own.

Im with the same ISP as you (Studentcom) and contacted gw2 support, I was told to get in touch with my ISP regarding this issue. The ISP said they do not throttle at any time, nor are any of the ports that gw2 uses blocked. So I assume it has something to do with anet servers/network.

it is, this kinda stuff also happened on gw1 too. some isp’s were fine where as others were not, then it would change sides…

I cant even log-in atm. Its just loading when I click Log-in.. I even uninstalled my anti-virus software to check if it isnt that, buts its not. Disable even my Firewall as ArenaNet states it can be either one or both of those that can cause issue.

ArenaNet.. The problem isnt any of those. Check on your side. Blizzard Entertainment games run smooth without any issues. I can download apps etc at full speed without problems. Why should this be at its worse for everybody after this patch? Dont tell us its our computers when the problem is simply on your side. If youre saying I should check my Anti-Virus, Drivers and Firewall.. I say. Check your programming of the patch or even the entire living story release.. Somewhere theres coflict in the coding or something.. It isnt fun playing the game like this at all.. Ill rather play another game then start up Guild Wars 2 now…

To be honest.. I logged into Guild Wars 1 and I also get lagspikes here and there.

I have been doing stuff solo fine, but when i come in to karma trains and or massed grp events then i lag out and it takes a very long time to get back in. this is perhaps 1 of the weirdest type of lag i have even seen. solo story modes are fine but even doing a dungeon will lag out.

This.

I’ve been getting the 101 error for the last 3 days, it’s already annoying…

Yeah it is broken again, same disconnect errors that I was getting a while back. Not to happy about seeing this again.

In morning all were good, now same thing like y-day….lags after lags, and God knows when this will be fixed, if will be fixed.

Error Code=42:1000:9001:4170:101

I have been getting this errorcode aswell, and tried the same steps as the op.
Would be nice if anyone knows a solution to this problem because it disables my guild panel and chat, and also my lfg system.

Try using VPN solution as I described in this link: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/tech/Network-Lag-Merged/page/47#post3678448

It is just a daily solution (as long as you don’t wanna pay for a VPN service or create tons of new email addresses to get free trials everyday), but at least you can try whether it solves your problem or not.

I never had issues with disconnect or heavy lag. Today I can’t play at all, heavy lag in game and dc, or just instant dc

code=58:11:5:523:101

Allways error code 7:11:3:191:101 unplayable :/

I’m having the same problems. I’m from the Philippines and I do notice I only get this errors during 7pm my time onwards. I try to log-in for 30+ times but it kicks me out. Sometimes I get in but I will lag a lot then eventually get an error message. I also experience the guild window not loading error and sever lag. Then I try to just sleep and wake up around 9am the next morning and everything will be fine. Please fix this I want to play with my guild mates but if I’m getting dc the time their on we can’t.

UPDATE: I tried using VPN and I got in fine, please help us fix this. I don’t want to use VPN while playing.

Now I can’t even log in to game. Changed ports (port forward) and disabled security.

error code now – 7:11:3:191:101

Havent been able to log in for more than 3 seconds today. The rest (10 minutes) was staring at load screens. Dropped out after trying to rezone from Grove to Caledon Forest.

It was all fine yesterday, there wasnt even a patch today, no update on any programs on my machine, neither on GW2. What the hell is up?

Code=7:11:3:191:101 after a few seconds of play (for two hours)
Error Code: 42:1000:9001:4170 for the last 10 minutes (when attempting to log into the game)

Having the same issues. It takes a while to log me in after inserting my password, then once I open it brings me to character select screen. I can select one and click “Play” but the button becomes greyed out. Nothing loads or when it does it’s just the loading screen, hanging, and after a few minutes it boots me with a Lost connection to server and the same Code=7:11:3:191:101 error others are getting. It was fine earlier today.

Right, i rebooted the router and it seems to be working as before. Should have tried that hours ago… If all systems and the like appear working as intended but you still cant get into gw2, give the router or modem a few seconds of rest. Might fix it.

@ Lakdav. Not it. Not on my end. I run a home business relying on high-speed internet to send large .psd files to and from and pay a hefty amount of cash for a fast and stable connection. Just ran a test, 89.63Mb/s dl, 56.34Mb/s ul, 5ms ping. Everything works and loads within the second, as it should. GW2 isn’t. I don’t expect it to load in a second, but currently it won’t at all. This is a GW2 server related issue.

Hmm, same here. I thought to myself is the problem and I was wrong.
I did just deactivated antivirus, firewall and stuff, but nothing and same error like another peolpe who get. Also Guildwars 1 was HUGE laaaagspikes and booom disconnect! =D
I tested some streaming like youtube, and testing internet speed, etc and work fine but GW isn’t. Anyway, ANet will fix this problem.

Guessing their is some sort of issue today as I have not been able to log in for the last 40 minutes. Either get stuck at the character selection screen or make it to the spawn area in Gendarran fields only to be disconnected a couple of seconds later. Prior to this (40 mins ago) the game was running fine.

I was playing for 8hrs straight since this morning and like always there’s no problem, then now 5:30pm just like what has been happening before I keep getting lags, then eventually got disconnected. Now I can’t log in again. Please do something about this.

Same thing happening to me since yesterday cant create characters, cant log in and if i manage to log in 5 to 10 seconds later disconnected.. very frustrating already sent a ticket for help on this problems with both error codes…

Yeah 2nd night in a row I’m unable to log-in. I get to character select screen then proceed to getting kicked out again with that error ^ It was fine from 11 to 2pm today on the EU side, this nonsense only happens during evening primetime.

Same here, been at least 4 days now, from 5pm to midnight, network lag and disconnects with error code 7. Any content with more than 5 active players in the same area u just get kicked out. UK BT
Any official statement from anet woudl be greatly welcome, we tried everything on our side with no fix.
VPN is a way to get in the game, but being entirely honest… affects your latency heavily, u dont dc but u play 2/3s behind.

I’m having all of these issues. Also From Spain. I Was fine the night of the patch… Even the next morning. But since that I am unable to play at primetime. Morning early afternoon is good.. Late afternoon its laggy. From primetime 18.00 till 23.00 I rarely can log in and if I do I crash 2-5mins later.
I’m glad that there are people having the same problems.
Please Fix the game

Believe this is a GW2 server issue, always during primetime since this recent patch that things become unplayable, either I get stuck on a zone loading screen until I error out, or if I do manage to get in, the lag is just ridiculous I might as well not bother.

Obviously something has changed with their coding since the last patch, prehaps some of their optimisations they might have done to help cope with the demand from this patch might have caused some conflicting issues.

Either way for me, it was all working fine pre-patch, I hope this gets resolved before my interest starts to fade.

24/7 DCs, blah.

I got a reply in my ticket that I sent them, they said I have ISP problems. But I srsly think there’s no problem in my side, or for that matter our side. If I have ISP problems I should be encountering the errors 24/7 but NO, like all of you I am only experiencing it during 7pm onwards GMT+8 but at 7am GMT+8 everything is fine

iLLusion.6170:

I got a reply in my ticket that I sent them, they said I have ISP problems.

LOL That’s a typical response from Anet, Even with all the threads about people with the same problems they still try and shift the blame and never reply. And they wonder why people get frustrated and the population is dropping.

Then my ISP would throw the ball back saying it’s anet’s end.
WHAT IS LIFE ANYMO?

Same issues here (New Zealand) at present – regular massive lag and disconnects. Normally my connection is flawless, but at the moment GW2 is not useable.

Mapchat on my server (Sea Of Sorrows) was full of people with the same problems by the way.

Anet may be right in saying that this is a network problem, but given the wide range of people experiencing it, it would seem to be at their end and not ours, unless the internet is broken worldwide…

If Anet doesn’t intend to fix the game I hope that they go bankrupt. The game is impossible to play at any time and you know… The main point of keeping a game community is LETTING IT PLAY THE GAME.
And if a person would start a riot over it they would most likely just block them for being rude.
It’s YOUR problem Anet. Everything was fine in summer last year and there was no lag ANYWHERE. Why did you have to go and F*** it up. Just make the game stable and playable and then people might actually be able to enjoy the content you think helps cover up the situation in any way…

Same problem here since a few days. Mainly during early GMT (9am to 12am) and evening (from 9pm onwards).

I have been playing this game for a year and the past couple days have been very hard for me to play and I keep getting the same problems as OP. I am trying to figure out if its my comptuer or GW. It kicked me out before I even set foot on a map and today has been the worst. I have been kicked like 10 times. Its 4:42pm here and I have been trying to play since 2pm.

My problems are all the same: getting random, but constant popups of error code 42:1000:9001:4170

This is all of about 10/20 minutes ago, too. The wierd thing is I that I can still play the game (though slightly laggier) but my guild chat nor LFG are working. Been playing since launch and no similar problems have occured. Super annoying

Contact your ISP like anet tells you. If the ISP tries to send you back to anet, ESCALATE THE CALL. Keep doing it until they actually admit they’re doing kitten. ISPs can, will, and have throttled gaming traffic. If they tell you they dont throttle, they’re lying pretty hardcore.
Of course, anet’s not helping by using some obscure error code theme. Simplify the error codes for christ sake.

The problem is why all ISPs from all over the world started to throttle our gaming traffic only while playing GW2?

Short answer: they don’t.

The reason, and I’m going to paraphrase here, “why all ISPs from all over the world” dont throttle is because you’re making a sweeping generalization. The ISP I’m on doesnt throttle any of my gaming, or ANY of my internet usage for that matter, and I’m a prolific gamer and streamer. And relatively speaking, it’s not hard at all to throttle specific games as an ISP either. EVERYTHING sent to and from the GW2 servers (and everywhere else for that matter) has sender/destination information that is openly readable. Not hard to filter and throttle traffic going to and from a given destination.

Running it on 2 computers right now. Same ISP, same WIFI. Only 1 computer is being booted. Received 58:11:5:523:101, 7:11:3:191:101 AND 42:1000:9001:4107:101 errors. Only for the past 3-4 days. Been playing fine for over a year. No changes in firewall, router or any such. Submitted ticket to Anet, they wanted a Game Advisor test run. Did that. No answer. This is soooo frustrating and I have Military maneuvers this weekend. Can’t wait for the typical ISP route answer… Obviously wrong, as I’ve proved by a second computer…

Same here. Two identical laptops. Both being played under same conditions (setup, wirelessly, few inches apart from each other, etc), but only one keeps getting booted off the game with error 7s, 42s and 58s. ISP can’t seem to grasp what is going on, thus dumping the ball to anet and vice versa. All other games work just fine on both laptops in terms of connectivity.

I have exactly the same problem. It started around 5-6 days ago. The game works fine (for the most part) except that I can’t access my friends list (they don’t show me the character names, just the account ones) or the PvP browser.

same problem and this is nonsense. this isn’t an ISP issue if it’s happening out of nowhere
if everything ELSE that uses internet, is working just fine, then it’s not my ISP. I cant stay connected for longer than 10 minutes. it also seems this is very common in the grove/caledon woods. so… what the hell??? I cant find a fix or anything just a sea of complaints

I Deschain I.4623:

Same problem here since a few days. Mainly during early GMT (9am to 12am) and evening (from 9pm onwards).

Problem occurs again since today. Constant disconnects every ten to fifteen minutes in WvW during early and prime EU.

Having same issues. It started 3 days ago and is happenning only in prime time. No issues during the morning before work (07-09:00) GMT+1

Error: 42:1000:9001:4170:101. I am able to play game normally (slight lag, but that’s it). Can’t use guild chat or guild window.

Edit: 22:00 GMT+1 and game is unplayable.

Escalated it with ISP, they did no changes and claim everything is OK.
