Figured out how to easily fix the issue….

https://help.guildwars2.com/entries/93290408-Problems-Downloading-or-Patching

as the winsock reset is irrelevant to the issue at hand:

1. go to the “slow or stuck downloads” section and perform the following actions. The instructions are somewhat vague so I’ll try to be a bit more comprehensive.

2. right click your GW2 DESKTOP icon and select “open file location”. In the open folder, right click the primary Gw2 icon (not Gw2-64) and create shortcut. The primary icon IS the .exe file even though it doesn’t show.

3.It will create a new icon within the open folder (Gw2 – Shortcut). Anets directions specify to rename it although it doesn’t matter either way. Right click and select properties

4.Copy and paste -assetsrv 174.35.71.9:80 in the target line section AFTER the last (")(quotation mark); make sure there is a space between as well. Click OK and double click the created shortcut (Gw2 – Shortcut). Problem Solved!!!

This Worked for me. I also was not able to create a log for some reason.

Problem arose last night 9/8/16 sometime after 6:00 PM Mountain. I logged off shortly after the dailies reset and was unable to log back at 10:00 PM Mountain.

Located in Denver and using Centurylink ISP.
