Guild Wars 2

Not sure if this may be relevant but only one other game has caused me to have bouts of DC’s like these…LineageII

Another NCSoft hosted game, coincidence?

Don’t get it….what do I tell my ISP?
The game works fine for me in a large % of the game so they are going to blame who?

I can play in one zone for hours, port to another zone or instance and wham code 7
Port back again or go to another zone, fine can play for hours no lag no DC…if I go back to the zone DCing me it does it again on Que. How is this my ISP, are they selecting small parts of your software for special treatment?

My internet is fine it is highly unlikely to stop working in one zone and not another in the same two minute period and accurately repeat the same problem all night/week in the exact same zones.

The only time it clears is when you update the client and then It normally starts up again in different zone.

Zones that I am currently having problems with : (just ones I have encountered since recent update)

personal story: The hatchery
Frostgorge Sound
Straits of Devastation

I have tried everything I can think of and the problem remains.

I am fortunate that it only seems to effect a few zones at a time for me unlike the more severe problems others are having

Ladies and Gentlemen. I believe I have found the problem. After a week of analyzing my hardware and software, in relation to my network performance with this game, I have come up with a solution. IF you are using this game with a wireless connection, especially one that is shared, please try a wired connection. The problem that crops up with this game is that the upriver speed of wireless is not very good, whereas wired IS good. Until A Net can optimize this client further, it looks like this is solution number 1. Good luck to all of you out there!

Sorry hard wired, 2 metres from router which itself is 1 metre from main telephone socket.

Since my launcher did an update this morning, I am no longer getting code 7’s in at least two of the areas in which I have been over the last week or so. I am still getting them on my personnal story which is instanced.

As I have said before, I can simply move zones and play all day/night with absolutely no issues or lag…I therefore conclude my end is fine and my internet is fine all the way to ANet so what conclusion should I come to?

No amount of tweaking/deleting/messing with third party stuff is going to work because the game is fine for me in most zones. It seems we are doing all the work when it appears to be someone else’s fault?

OK…so…

All ports open, internet fine as another computer on same router/modem with no issues (does have code 7 issues just not the same time as me)

I play this game for hours on end with no problems
I change zones and….
Code 7
code 7
code 7
code 7
change zones back play fine again
try a new character:
code 7
code 7
(if I hear for the sake of the land… one more time I will fall out with Caithe)
go back to main in old area plays fine even managed to get to 80

I wait outside a dungeon for guildies and get constant code 7 DC’s, go into dungeon no DC’s for entire dungeon run?

In what way is this my computer or internet?

I have no problem playing just playing in certain zones at certain times…seems to be your side Anet and not mine?

Sorry for the rant but I am pulling my hair out
