login server loop

[mrstan]

<p>logging in server 1-9, back to 1 over and over again. just downloaded the game. cannot get in</p>

<p>Just finished digital download.  will not get past login attempts on 1-9 and back again.  I dont need any other signs telling me it was a bad idea. If this is how Sony is keeping this game afloat, it should be deep in the abyss by now.</p>

<p>this game normally runs fine unless its being updated.  did you check you computers settings, is you firewall blocking it, try running it as an admin, ect.</p>

<p>You do realise it was probably server downtime, right?</p>

[awny]

<p>By what you describe, sounds like servers were down.</p><p> They are currently up and running fine.</p><p>make sure that your current virus protection program is allowing this to go thru.</p><p>Make sure you are running as administrator</p>

[mrstan]

<p>been trying for quite a while.</p>

<p>It is not server downtime.. servers are up!</p>

<p>Just because the servers show online via the network status doesn't mean the Login servers are up.</p><p>If you are still having this problem with the looping login servers 1-9, then the problem lies with your connectivity, and nothing on Sony's side.  You have a router or firewall or something stopping you from reaching the servers.  Some anti-v software "protects" you like this.  Windows UAC can "protect" you also sometimes.</p><p>Most often tho it's your router/firewall sitting in your house.</p><p>See this post for relevant port information needed to connect.</p><p><a href="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/posts/list.m?topic_id=422517">http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/...topic_id=422517</a></p>
