Updater hanging

I haven't played the game in a wee while and wanted to check out the new shiny.

I seem to have 111mb to load, but the updater just hangs at 15 mb, with 0b/s and some ridiculous time left to download. It just sits there. Restarting the updater makes no difference, it just sits there.

I'm on a Dual Core machine running Vista 64 bit and mobile broadband. I've checked my Firewall and both the program and the updater are excepted. It doesn't make any difference whether I use msconfig and reboot with nothing but the barest essentials on (e.g. no non-MS services or startup stuff, inlc. antivirus), updater still just sits there with no action, stuck at 15/111 mb, and 0b/s.

Never had the slightest bit of trouble with CoX (apart from the occasional after-patch stuff that many suffered from) in all the time I played it before, so this is new to me.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated. TIA!

I don't know what to do about your problem as I am not techy, but my husband could not log in to City Of Heroes issue 17 when it was released. He went to NcSoft support, ran and sent them a test they wanted run, and that late afternoon they had him in the game and creating his Demon Summoning Mastermind.

You could try that.

Good luck.
