Re: Error message: Unable to retrieve patch data. please check network connection208

@culby117 

208 is a communication issue talking to either manifest.swtor.com or cdn-patch.swtor.com 

usual causes are antivirus and/or firewall or a net routing issue but it would be highly unlikely to still be occurring after several months

some common issues known are 

ESET - disable "protocol filtering"
Kaperskey - disable "scan secure/encrypted connections"
Norton (Firewall) - set exceptions to "Allow" not "Auto"
