First thing is first, you do have internet access right? Like you can get to some random non-cached web page and everything is fine. Assuming yes, and the fact that you have already opened the ports on your router, tossed Guild Wars 2 on Avast’s whitelist, and don’t have a data cap on your internet. You might have to resort to sending a support ticket to ArenaNet.
