Hi there,

Could you all please confirm that you're running the game/Steam as an administrator, that your firewalls aren't doing anything that might interfere with the game's updating process and that you don't have anything running in the background that might be using up your bandwidth.

With connection issues, reinstalling doesn't generally help, but using a VPN to download the patch might. Please note that your download speed may be affected by the VPN you use. For minimal latency I recommend trying to find one close to your actual location.

Please note that not everyone in this thread may be having the same issue, merely similar symptoms. I recommend either creating your own thread or emailing us at support@grindinggear.com if you'd like us to assist you more personally.


Running non Steam client as admin. No firewall issue, poe is an exception in my firewall. VPN I still get the same error: Unable to connect to patching server.
Would deleting content.ggpk help at all?

Tried, does not resolve the issue.
Uninstalled the game, reinstalled, restarted my system, deleted the GGG folder completely, and same issue. Really starting to believe this is an overwhelmed update server issue.
Installed the Steam version, no issues works perfectly. The issue is with the stand alone client or the update servers.
My stand alone client is working perfectly fine now :)
