I can't download the POL update. Help!Follow

#1 Mar 08 2004 at 10:51 PM Rating: Decent
Someone please help me. When I try to download the POL update it goes to file #98 and never gets done with it. I formatted my hard drive a little while ago, and before I formatted my hard drive I had no problem downloading the update. It almost finishes then it says there is a network problem, and I should try again later. It's been like 3 days now and I try every day. The file is called "ff11_003.png" if that helps. Also last time I downloaded the patch I was on a 28.8k modem, now I have satellite pc. My system specs are...

Intel Pentuim4 2.00GHz
Direct x 8.1b
40 gig hard drive (10.11 left on it)
256 ddr ram
GeForce 4 MX 440

and I use XP

Please help me it's been like a week since i've played!

There is a big section on that very issue in the FFXI faq stickied at the top of this forum, including potential fixes. Did you read that? If you did, and you still have questions, let me know. If not, I suggest you read it. (try the ftp server)

By the way, satilite connections are absolutly lousy for gameplay. There is an uplink delay, so you will have constant lag.

I just read the FAQ, and I didn't find anything that could help me... I did try the ftp server before i posted this, it didn't help either. Is it possible to get a file from someone or would that not work?

Yeah I know that sattelite is bad for games so i'm gonna try to do something to play games, but it's hard playing the game a lot and then going two weeks without playing it.

Yay! I finally got the update to work, dunno how, but i'm happy.
I just messed around with my network settings and after about half an hour it finally worked. Thanks for the help too, glad someone decided to help me after two weeks.
