Connecting at 0 bytes per sec

Hi,

This is a very new occurance for me, but the past week I will be fine in GW, running aroundl ike I usually do then all of a sudden I get laggy then drop to 0 bytes per second. Then 5 - 6 minutes later drop with an error 7.

I don't know how to stop this from happening, and it's frustrating in the middle of HA or Missions.

I run Windows XP, have a NVidia graphics card (Can't spell) 1024 memory thing (Okay I am not computer literate) and also on a wireless internet connection.

Anyone know how I can fix this? or is this the state of my game from now on?

I am afraid that their is no fix for this kind of stuff, error 7's just happen. I tested with someone the other night that lived ~1 hour away from me, we both got the same lag and error7'd at the same time consistently. this is making me think that it is a problem with Anets servers for an entire area. Not something on your end that you would be able to correct.

On another note though, I have heard that having someone send you a PM while lagging can prevent you from getting the error, I haven't been able to confirm this myself yet though.

Ive been havin the same problems aswell. The net works fine for everything else so im assuming its the anet servers.

I'll try the pm to stop it from ahppening, but it's frustrating.

thank you.

Just a thought, if you have a program like PeerGuardian2 running in the backround, while trying to log onto Guild Wars, it will block your connection, and give an error code.

True. I said the same issue with the Windows Firewall, till I allowed Guildwars to run through it. Problem solved.
