Err=26? 

Whenever i try to log onto GW it says connection....then i get an error=26 and it says something about un-able to find domain server name.

Then the monitor goes back to desktop because i get kicked off dial up.

I dont know what the problem is but i know its been rather consistant only with guild wars.


Oh and this started on the 1st of this month but its really annoying because i cant play.

Re: Err=26? 

Doubtful. It is a connective issue you are dealing with. You should contact Guild Wars support about correcting the problem. They have a thread about Error 7 but more information is needed before they can solve the problem. You could probably be of help to them.
