from Florida I just got it installed after error

JUST GOT IT INSTALLED FINALLY! I'm in florida so maybe it will work for you guys too who are in the southeast! Just follow this instruction 

go to network settings, go to manual setup, confirm your IP address click automatic setup when it asks for your primary DNS, go to custom and enter thiese addresess Primary 208.67.222.222 and Secondary 208.67.220.220, then disable UPnP, complete settings, run test, and should pass, when completed, go disable Media Server Connection.


after i finished that i went to download the update on the BF4 disk and it wen't through i hope this helps somebody, I felt all your pain but im looking at the beautiful loading screen as i type thisI'm changing my setting back to default now but it worked!

    One other guy got in and it is a 4 digit code they are huge, if you press down on your controller it should go up to 260  something so you can enter it.. anyways sorry if it didn't work for you but it worked for 2 people so far..

    I also erased the corrupt data and switched to a wired modem instead of wireless connection as well,  the other guy i helped on the BF4 forums erased his game data and DLC's first and redownloaded them after getting in..

    IT WORKED IT WORKED IT WORKED!!!!! He's right, all you have to do is clear out your game data, then go in network settings and manually change your DNS settings to what he said. Then just redownload Premium and all DLC's . THANK GOD!!!!! I was about to jump HAHAHAHA

    I wish the mods would pin these solution threads to the top but here it goes again.. Keep in mind it sometimes takes a few tries but the majority of people who tried it got in.. I changed my settings back to norm after as well

    Go to network settings, Go to custom setup

    Once you enter all your router info you will get to the IP address settings, use Automatic for this. Next is DHCP host name-do not set. Next is the DNS settings, go to manual and enter primary 208.67.222.222 and Secondary 208.67.220.220. Next is MTU setting choose automatic. Next is Proxy server- do not use. Last is UPnP- disable this. After all this is done your internet check should run fine the proceed to download the update. Also make sure your Media server connection is disabled too.
