    Yeah, let people rage about the patch although the problem was happening before it... we don't want basic reading skills to make us have to find another culprit... we're too lazy.

    So, unfortunately, Microsoft didn't find it useful to have separate error pages for server response timeout and dns. They are the same location in the address bar.

    The even more unfortunate truth is that in all likelihood PWE has limited power in this issue. Depending on a large number of factors, all of which rest with the hosting company (Internap), there is truly no telling how long it could take to resolve the route issue.

    Triage at datacenters is a difficult thing. Some of these routers are over $40,000 to replace, and that warrants some attempts at non-destructive resolution. How long they spend trying to resolve the issue is just never going to be fast enough to those having to deal with the issue.

    Due to the difficulty of having to deal with a third party, even updating us isn't very easy to do. We all want to know how long and whats going on... but the unfortunate truth is they may only know what we know. Hosting companies aren't known for their efficiency, nor are they associated with transparent discussion of whats going on when **** hits the fan.

    A fix that just worked for me is on http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=225155. it was the sporadic ip address fix. You run CMD as admin type ipconfig /release and then ipconfig /renew. So for some of us the IP address was the issue.

    After numerous attempts I finally got the launcher connect and present was appears to be a valid Login Splash. Oddly, when the splash dialog opened so did Internet Explorer with the following in the address bar:

    res://ieframe.dll/dnserrordiagoff_webOC.htm

    Same here! Both..

    Though right now the issue looks to be resolved regardless.. if in the future we encounter this, be aware that this would have only been another temporary fix.

    Doing this action clears the routing table cache on your system, and causes it to reobtain it, which due to the down node would choose a working route. When the route autocorrects to the route it wants to be, you'd have the problem over again.

    How long that takes to happen is variable depending on any one of the 20+ hops that your connection traverses.

    Been having the same problem but while it was patching changed the proxy from eu to us and started getting some download speed at least, only 4058mb update to go. Hope this anyone.
