Pol 0011 - Pol 3001 - Pol 1160 ..... Easter !!!

Anyone else having issue ?

AH failed, search

Loading Failed and black screen loop on Maurah ,,,,, ( vpn to get out fixed it )

Yep.
Started yesterday - zoning causes me to randomly lockup on "Downloading data" then it disconnects

Was thinking it was just my ISP - maybe not :o

No problems.

black screen loop happened for 2+ hours while in dyna-d, eventually I could reconnect and was ported out. I keep crashing since then, but at least I can reconnect right away.

Christ is rising this weekend.

All those outgoing packets associated with that is messing things up.

Not provider related :

Ls member on different Country got same Problem ... E.U here

also i did a command prompt admi. : ipconfig /flushdns

and now everything work..... if that can help any

Getting error 1160 today. flush did not help.
Anyone else having that problem?

1160 here too...
Edit: and 0011...

No point in trying to keep troubleshooting? From past posts, this seems to be server side.

Edit: Using a VPN worked and as soon as I cut it off, POL crashed.

I asked a friend that's in same server as I'm in, to try and log in. He had no issues this morning. I hadn't done anything out of the ordinary, so this is puzzling...

Try flushing with elevated privileges and without browser opened.

And, just in case, after flushing, restart just to make sure

An ISP and/or a region is terminally having issues with 11. It literally just rotates where. It's a permanent thing, you just lost this couple days.

It'll rotate to the next region and some other rando will have the issues.

I'm having the POL 0011 Issue on 3 different computers in the house. It's definitely gotta be something ISP related. So does this just happen and then magically correct itself? and there's probably nothing that can be done at the moment to fix it? I'm thinking calling the ISP may be the best bet at this point. I read from some other people troubleshooting that reinstalling POL may help when I first had the issue, but with it happening at the same time on 3 different computers, I seriously doubt all three need to have POL reinstalled at the same time and it seems I'm not alone with the POL 0011 error. I wonder how long this will last.

Try using a VPN. That fixed it for the time being.

I'll try that for now. It's been a while so I gotta find one that's reliable and good. last time I used one was when I had a slow internet connection and it lost a chunk of the little speed I had. Gonna go research some VPN then give it a go. Now that I have a much faster speed it should work better I'd imagine.

That's likely the ISP messing around with the route between you and SE (Japan). As others have said, VPN to a different location and see if it magically works.

Will it eventually go back to normal? Using a VPN is working fine for xi but can't access outlook and torrents without switching off VPN.

Sooner than later, but not soon enough

Usually a day or two

Not sure which one you have, see if it supports Split Tunnel. That lets you select specific applications to use the tunnel instead of just shoving everything down it.

I'll check that out but everything is back to normal today.

Yeah your ISP's routes were screwed up and it likely had a bad route statement somewhere in the mix.

A long time ago I was stationed in S Korea and for some reason SE's ISP decided to block all traffic from the Korean ISPs. Straight up FFXI would not connect even though I was only a thousand KM from the servers. Had to resort to using a VPN with an end point in Japan to play FFXI. A year later it was all resolved.

Sup, guys.

I have been having a problem that could or could not be related to this one, so i guess i could also come here and share my knowledge to you, slobs normies.

Well, my problem was that I couldnt access login.live in my computer. Login.live is the authentication service of Microsoft, so i was basically locked out of my (paid) services like hotmail and onedrive.

I thought this would be just temporary thing, but it had been happening for 2 weeks already.

And it was only at home. I could access normally when using my cellphone and my work notebook with VPN.

Then i did more couple of tests to understand the problem because it was happening for too long and it started to bother me.

First thing was isolating the problem: where was the problem? The characteristic pointed something “local” as it just happened at my computer and not my cellphone or work notebook.

So, tried to access site from my ipad and…. Could not access it. Not the same error message but faulty regardless. So, the problem wasnt my hardware, but my internet environment.

That environment has two components: the ISP and my router. If it was an ISP, my option were limited. So my next step was checking the router. My hypothesis was the the router could be caching DNS, thus never resolving my requests to login.live (side note, i knew it was DNS issue because windows had the error message “dns_probe_error”).

So i just tried to restart the router. Yeah, maybe this was a really quick and dirty testing, maybe incomplete, but it didnt change the issue so at least i understood that i shouldnt trust DNS as it was, because someone had it faulty.

So, my next step was checking my options to change it. Both my ipad and personal notebook had DNS Server as “automatic”, meaning it just trusted the DNS from ISP, so i changed both to resolve to google (8.8.8.8) and…. Worked!

I just quickly reviewed some answer on internet trying to explain the problem. Probably something related to DHCP when your ISP router connect to ISP server that could be generating some dirty in the configuration. If its something like DHCP, it should work with temporary IP being lent to you, and to fix it, either see how to manually renew the IP or just let it expire, but as noticed, this could take a long time.

TL,DR: try setting your DNS Server to Google. Below, a video how to do that.
