sounds like a connectivity issue on your end, whether temporary or not I do not know. But the patches download fine for me, the last patch I was able to D/L in 8 seconds as shown in the attached pic.

I eventually did get the patches to download, some manually, some with the client update. Just logged in today and tried to download the 4 new patches that have been put out since I last logged in and having the same issue. I do not understand why this is so difficult. I have never had problems downloading files from any other site (http, ftp, nntp, etc) on either of my PCs (one vista the other XP).....ever. I have tried everything I can think of, turned off Norton, took my wireless switch out of the picture, I am the admin on both PCs, and I never enable windows firewall or UAC. Why can't I download the file with out getting server reset error after downloading 10 - 11 MB of the files? Why are there so many updates anyway (4 updates in the last 10 days, I thought Microsoft was bad)? So I have come to the conclusion that someone somewhere does not want me to play this game. They win, I give up. I have spent far too much time and effort to get this game to work as designed.
