won't connect in iraq
footballfan159
i'm currently deployed in iraq and i thought a little gaming at the end of the day would be nice but i can't open the game. i click on the icon and it opens the "connecting to arenanet" window. i thought it would fix its self after a while but after a month i still can't connect. i'm not great on computers so i don't know how to fix it. any ideas? is it just because i'm in iraq?

May be a restriction put on by whoever is providing the service?

you could try a proxy but i dont know if that will work with a game

Thank you for your service. Please share that sentiment with your fellow troops. Tell them one geek from New York appreciates what you guys/gals are doing for us.
As for not connecting, I would find out if your base has protocols and security for web access. It might be a simple matter of having Anet's address being listed as acceptable with whoever is in charge of that at your location.

I am sure that I have seen examples of soldiers stationed over there playing, so I don't think it is geographic. Check if it is your internet provider putti kind of lock on it. Thank you so much for your service, and I hope you can get this sorted out

It could also be a DNS issue. Refer to this recent thread for more on that:

thanks every1. to me it seams like it fits the DSN issue so i followed the instructions but it still didn't let me access guild wars. i talked to our IT guy and there are no restrictions on the internet so idk what would cause it not to work. i played at home in hawaii a week b4 we deployed and it worked fine but i get here and it doesn't work.
also the guildwars website won't work because i tried to go to their support page and i couldn't access the site.

Check that your firewall is not blocking guildwars.com
