Keep disconnecting and getting ERROR 7

A couple of things comes to mind.

1. Clear the GW2 cache. If on windows, hit win+r at the same time, and type %temp% and you can locate the gw2 cache there. Delete it, then run gw2 to have a new cache folder created. Corrupted data caches can cause disconnections.

2. Run a repair. Locate your Gw2.exe file. Right click and create a new shortcut. Rename that shortcut as GW2 Repair (to ensure you don't confuse it with anything else), right click on that newly created shortcut, select Properties, and in the Target line, add -repair at the end. (Example, "C:\Games\Guild Wars 2\gw2.exe" -repair) That creates a repair client. Run it, and it'll repair your game files. Just be aware that clicking on the shortcut will always run the repair mode. So only run it when you need to.

3rd one is out of date addons (Like using ArcDPS), but they don't give errors. Just crash the game.

I'll try that out, thanks :)

I have the same problem, there are several speculations about the real cause of it, some say it only improves by changing wifi or using a cable, others say it's the HD losing date when changing areas, I'm reinstalling the game to see if it's corrupted. , I have a 400mbs internet, it's fast enough and the computer is more than enough but I still have this problem

I got myself an new modem and ethernet cable, it fixed it.

Oh, so there was an underlying issue with your connection. Glad you could fix it.

Interesting how i've never had any problems with my connection before, just in gw2. Oh well, i can play now atleast :D

[ebaG-gamma]

Did you test the connection with analytics tools / other games in between?

[vole.]

Yeah

The reason it disconnects is because the game is wildly inefficient with both its routing path to AWS servers and the way it loads everything on demand. Lots of routers just crap out, and the problem's been around for years.
