    Default another pol-1160 problem

    i keep getting the pol-1160, and have been for the last 2 days. on the 31st i got disconnected when our internet went out for about an hour. when i got it back, i get the 1160 saying the network is busy. i know they were going to be some updating going on, but not until the 1st and it should be done by now, but i'm still getting the message. i was on for a few hours on the 31st before the dc, and now i can't get on.

    any help would be appreciated.

    It usually take SE about 3 weeks after each major version update to get everything settled. Downloading takes up a hellavu lot of bandwidth since their d/l system isn't very effecient b/c of the ps2. Also, even if the servers are up and running and there's no mentioned maintenance going on, they'll sometimes work on the servers while they're up which causes a bunch of lag. It'll get better. It's actually extremely better than it used to be. I remember Chains of Promathia being an absolute mess for 4-5 months.

    also, i tried running this straight from the cable modem to see if the router was the problem. same thing, no connecting noise, and then the error.

    try the pol webchat on the website, last time I went there(couple days ago) I saw a "warning" about a pol error - and if you got it, it meant you were banned, might want to look into that.

    i'll have to try it, shouldn't have been banned though. didn't do anything that would get me in trouble.

    except selling BILLIONS OF GIL!!!!!

    lol just kidding.

    id try un-installing and re-installing my FFXI, its a huge pain but usually works.

    FFXI is like Windows sofware, if somthing isnt working, Format and re-install. thats my philosophy.

    i tried reinstalling playonline, same thing. i didn't try reinstalling ffxi since i can't even log into pol. i'll have to try that too.

    well, it's looking like my ISP decided to block one of the ports i need to play, i can take my laptop and play through a different isp, but charter cable sucks.
