Question
Code=058
Answer


We're sorry that you are experiencing network difficulties. The error you are reporting, Code=058, is indicative of a mis-configured network setting or network interference. Please use the following information in order to assist you in troubleshooting this issue:

1. Make sure GW.EXE or GWSETUP.EXE is added to your firewall's exception list. If you have already allowed Guild Wars in the past, please double check the exceptions. Often times firewalls will decide to block Guild Wars after it has patched. If adding an exception does not help, please try completely uninstalling the firewall software.

2. If you are using a router, please open and/or forward both TCP port 6112 and TCP port 80 within their settings. If you are connecting to Guild Wars while on a campus or business network, please consult your network's administrator to verify that these ports are available. If you are using a NETGEAR® router please review the following article:

Why am I unable to connect to Guild Wars while using my NETGEAR® router?

If you are using a wireless router, try connecting your computer directly to the router using an Ethernet cable instead.

3. Try temporarily disabling any Internet Security or Anti-virus/spyware applications. If this resolves the connection issue, then you will need to properly configure these applications in order to enable them while you play Guild Wars. Please contact the author of the software if you do not know how to make these adjustments.

4. If your Internet Service Provider is America Online® and you are unable to use Internet applications outside of the AOL® client (such as Internet Explorer), please contact their Customer Support regarding this issue at http://www.aol.com/support/help.adp.

If the above information did not resolve this issue, please contact our Technical Support team by using the Ask a Question tab. Please provide them with the following information so that they may better assist you with this issue:

* Are you connecting through a router or hub? If so, what is the name and model number?
* Are you on a home, campus, or business network?
* Are you using a firewall application? If so which one?
* Do you use any Internet Security Applications (ISA) such as CYBERsitter, Net-Nanny, ZoneAlarm®, McAfee®, or Norton™?
* Who is your Internet service provider?
* What type of connection do you have (cable, DSL, dial-up)?
* Where are you located?

Please provide as much relevant information as possible; this will help them swiftly resolve your issue.

Apparently its a DNS issue...(according to users with the same problem)

1. Disconnect your network connection.
2. Start -> Run -> 'cmd' -> 'ipconfig /flushdns'.
3. Reconnect.

Otherwise, what line do you have?

any recent additions of a proxy in IE ?

Nope, Tried this morning again no luck, came home at about 12 and it downloaded a file now it's all okay...

Still pretty clueless on what the problem was, lets hope it works 100% now

Thanks lot for your help Necuno!

i had this issue and sorted it in the end with either a reinstall of GW or replacement of gw.exe and gw.dat from a working installation.

somehow along the line one of the two files goes sour and you can't connect to arena net or play.

not being the OS, Network, router, dsl line or isp - well in my case

I've got the same problem, i mailed guild wars, got no reply yet. Did guild wars downloaded the file by it self? Or did you downloaded it? If so, where can i find that file

This is a common problem, in that there is corruption in the gw.dat or the .exe. Try and do a /repair or by doing reinstallation from the Guild Wars game menu or install CD.

Alternatively, remove the gw.dat en download the content again or do a -image, or copy the data from someone else / working installation.
