I cant log in to POL yet..

If i remember right, the servers are always up 15-30 mins before you can log on.

I am having the same problem as well, probably will iron itself out. Networks are flaky as it is, especially when they are constantly being "maintained" lol PLZ do not bash SE in this thread, i would love to see all those Flamerz put together and maintain a network that spans half the world.

I'm just getting a solid
Connecting to Playonline... 
Verifying PlayOnline ID, PlayOnline password, and DNAS... 
Make sure the Ethernet cable is correctly connected.

Followed by the POL-0011
Awhile back when the servers were down I would get a POL-0276 or something of the such shortly after the Verifying notice.

Actually during maintenance most of the day they showed as being in maint. Just not too long ago they came up but remember POL maintenance is until 20:00 so there's another ~30min left.

It makes sense to get the worlds up and fully loaded before opening the door.

yeah, 18 minutes and counting.

This game is my crack. I need more crack.

PlayOnline Maintenance Extension (Oct. 13)

The PlayOnline server maintenance currently underway has been extended. The estimated finish time is now 20:00 (PDT) as noted below.

The "Friend List Plus" feature, as well as the "Q&A" feature accessible from the official PlayOnline homepage (http://www.playonline.com/) will be unavailable.

We apologize for any inconvenience this delay may have caused.

[Date&Time]
Oct 13, 2005 8:00 to 20:00 (PDT)

[Affected Services]
PlayOnline

They're working on POL servers, not FFXI servers, so that's why the game servers are up but you cannot log in.

In case anyone missed it, the time for maintenance was extended by 2 hours.


So, that means 11pm est at the earliest. However I would not count on that either.


We will probably get another extension with SE claiming the hamster on the treadmill used for the power supply is missing from his cage.

I tried to log on and got an error where my DNAS was not being recognized. Now, your DNAS is supposed to be automatically set. I remember having the problem with this during the last update when I was off FFXI for two days. I remember calling SE and explaining the problem. The SE rep said the problem was with my ISP. I then informted him that I would for that ISP (being Comcast). Dead silence. Then he gave me a DNAS server to connect to directly. I put that in and linked up. Between then and now, I switched my DNAS back to automatic. After trying a few times tonight, I switched it back to the DNAS and now I am getting the busy instead of not able to locate DNAS server.

Here is my theory.

SE temporarily disconnects some of the DNAS IP addresses to allow people with slower connections (i.e AOL, Earthlink, DSL) to connect while us who have a cable connect suffers. I know this might sound crazy to alot of you but when massive amount of people suddenly get booted, we are all cable subscribers whether its Comcast, Time Warner, etc.

Once again, call me crazy but I think I am on to something here.
