yo,
i got this happening
seems anet doesn't tend to care much about euro players
first the event weekend and now this while i went VQ'ing
gg
We all know ArenaNet's network is not perfect. There have been several occasions where entire regions have been unable to connect to Guild Wars at all. There are many different reasons for this. Sometimes (usually with advance notice) it is server maintenance. Sometimes it is a minor link in the chain going down somewhere between the end user and ANet. This takes time to diagnose and more time to fix. And yes, sometimes it is that cleaning lady with her vacuum cleaner.
It is a good thing to report this, however it is a bad thing to have multiple threads opening up in various sections of this Forum all saying the same thing.
In future cases of ANet non-availability, it would be appreciated if you report it in this thread, rather than make a new one.
Thank you for your support

Yup I'm getting this error code as well now
Was ok a few hours ago then loged out for a while but now when i try and login i get to my chars screen OK
but selecting any of them to play I get the 040 or 004 code.
So I can't even change dist to see if it solves the problem.

I'm sorry, you appear to have mistaken us for the QQ forum. That one is known as Riverside.
Thank you for your understanding.

Still doing it here. For the last maybe hour my messages in chat have either taken 5+mins to show up or have not shown up at all, yet others can read them. Now i'm getting code=040's all over the place and can't log in. Less than impressive.

Lol - sorry for my original post; there was only the scathing OP when I posted it. This forum suffers from lag too, y'know (database maintenance and whatnot.)
Yes, we're all fed up with the 040s and random disconnects lately, but do we really need a new thread every time it happens? As for the statement "I've paid for this game so I have the right to complain", yes; that's very true. But we are not ArenaNet. We are Guild Wars Guru and we are a fan site. This particular section is a technical forum where we try to help people with hard- and software problems. With ANet server-related problems, there is nothing we can do or suggest.
Thank you for your understanding.

Anet rarely speaks openly upon issue's the less people know they have issue's the better, which is rather annoying to the users as they rarely ever get an update on the situation and therefor are badly informed, best bet we have is to count on people like Martin that have a look around once a while and brief us on the issue's.
Nevertheless seems Anet currently doesn't have the proper support for the Euro datastream/servers and appearently this is causing a lot of issue's lately.
I certainly hope they'll fix/invest in this issue to at least ensure a stable product and not one where the customor is stacked up with problems that Anet rather keeps hidden.
Furthermore i think Anet should realise this isn't good promotion and definitly doesn't help them with binding future clients for GWII.

I give up for the night and try tomorrow 
But yes we do need people to post every time they get an error
so people can see "It's just not me having a problem"
I wish Anet had there own forum instead of waiting 1 or 2 days for suport to get back to you
like they usually take with me at lest have and Official one for GW2.

I had error 040 for a while, but it's since traded places with our friend 007. It worked for a bit, until I finished a mission and now everything's gone to pot. As far as I can remember, this has been going on for the past couple of hours, on and off (I've been playing in Photoshop as well, so time flew away for me).

It's a nice day, try going out and seeing that wonderful thing called the sun.

I can't connect any more it says "code=040", what exactly is that and is there a way for me to play the game? I'we just done the "-image" so I wanna make up for the lost time! What should I do, wait?

Mr.Bimble
It seems that everytime there is a "special weekend" many people have login in problems,d/c problems. Surely this is something that can be rectified by A-net. Its no longer good enough to blame ISP's,its too widespread. At the moment NONE of my guild can get online.SUCKS !!!!!
