    After reading hundreds of posts about this error, there is no fix, this game sucks, no fix not even from the dev team, this doesn't happen in wow, rift or d3, only here, I guess this gives you the long sight of the future of this game = Going Nowhere.


    Star Trek Online = FAIL

    BTW If someone says reinstall Windows 7, this is not a fix this is there way of telling you to stop whinging.

    Hey, Jalaso...

    Stop blaming Cryptic. It's not their fault. If you do a TRACERT to www.startrekonline.com, it'll start timing out at Cogent, which they do not own. Basically, one of Cogent's servers is down, so if you wanna ***** at somebody, ***** at Cogent. All Cryptic can do is constantly pester Cogent until they get their servers fixed. I've attached a piece of a TRACERT below.

    Jalaso... I *told* you I'd repeat myself on every thread.

    The problem is not Cryptic's fault (Champions Online is down too, btw). The problem is that a server at Cogent, the company that does their hosting, has failed. All Cryptic can do is wait until Cogent gets their TRIBBLE in order (or change hosts, but who knows how long it'll take to transfer all that data over?)

    The autoupdater will not connect. Blizzard and Steam are functioning normally but once again the Cryptic product has issues.

    Seems like a lot of people have this problem every time there is a new update or patch.
    Time is a funny thing; There is always too much of it. Except when you need it the most, then there is never enough.

    Aye, the forums are back up but the launcher still won't connect for me. It would be nice if they'd post another one like they did that last time.

    Thanks for the file. I'd suggest that they hire you, but then you probably wouldn't be able to help anymore.

    *See my new post: http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showpost.php?p=7206911&postcount=41
    I was playing, yesterday, without any problems but now I can't login anymore. When I run STO, It opens a window named Cryptic Launcher Autoupdate, it says:
    "Trying to update the launcher.
    Please be patient.
    Tried connecting 1 time."

    It takes some minutes, then I get an error window " Patcher error", saying "The patchclient got a message while it was in a state with no response function."

    I tried several times but somehow It doesnt update my game client.
    Some mmorpg has a manual update patch, I wonder if STO has it too, if doesnt, it would be nice having it too.
    It will avoid problems to players, specially just after an update, like now.

    Best Regards.

    PS: I already tested my Internet Connection, trhoughput, latency, everything is like yesterday, except my STO game. ;)

    I haven't been able to log on for 4 days now, have support ticket, they think it is my network problem.
    However, the Cryptic Servers are laggy and down often.:(
    I'm not posting here to complain but in hope to find a solution. :confused:
    Here is my latest reply to my support ticket including pic I uploaded to them too.
    Verified Connection to Cryptic Servers Please see attached jpg formatted picture.
    I connect on average 1 minute, download 4Mbs and your latest Cryptic Launcher (decides to time out) errors out.
    _ Suggest telling people IP range; "208.95.184.0 - 208.95.185.255" instead of subnet syntax; 208.95.184.0/23.

    Sorry, no luck here. The file was exactly the same as the launcher I already had. I login to the launcher, but it says Patch instead of Engage. No updating occurs, it just hangs a few minutes until it crashes and the Cryptic error handler appears. Submitted 2 bug reports, been down 2 days so far.:confused:

    Looks like a server issue. A normal launcher login.update looks like this in the pc.log file:

    the problem is with both the game and the internet.
    there is a rouge ip block on the server thet is causing this prob.
    it blocks the ip address and area of the game. wait for the next patch, your area will hopefully be allowed access.
    Hope it helps.

    I had this problem twice now.

    The first time it lasted about a day and then just took care of itself. I had tried several things like removing power from the router, turning off protection software and firewall, etc. I had finally given up and gone to bed. The next day it was working again, so I just assumed that it had been a problem on the other end of the connection.

    Yesterday it happened again. I tried many of the same things, gave up and went to bed, but this time I still couldn't connect when I woke up. In the USA a lot of people with cable modem rent their routers. I rent mine from my provider. The set up in my home has two routers, actually. One is wireless and one is direct cable. I usually have my gaming PC hooked to the direct router. Out of desperation I switched it to the wireless router.

    That seems to have worked. I can now log in to the game. This whole problem might be a router issue. I use Charter Cable, the router that stopped working for this game (but would still work for the rest of the internet) was a Touchstone Telephony Modem, and the wireless router that now lets me connect to the launcher is made by Ubee.

    I hope that helps somebody else troubleshoot their issue.

    Why does it open my explorer when trying to open launcher?
