Received a packet that is too large to deserialize

I installed the game and now before donwloading it i get this error
"Received a packet that is too large to deserialize"

(I forgot to say that I use Windows 7 64-bit) meybe that's the problem because when i use windows 8 I had no problems with PoE

I am having the same issue. "Received a packet that is too large to deserialise". Windows 7, 64 bit.

Launch client.exe
Checking resources...
Exception
"Received a packet that is too large to deserialise"

Same for me, and I'm using Windows 7 x64, too.

I get that error right after starting the Client when it says "Checking Resources" - exactly like SilentDeadlyGas.
Does someone know how to fix this issue?

Check out your network interface settings or your router/switch, perhaps Jumbo Packets is enabled? If so, try turning it off and trying again.

Haven't had this problem myself, and without know more about the network environment, hard to troubleshoot.

Thanks DoomCloud, I guess that's the right direction. I managed to get the client on my desktop computer to allocate the space and start with the download. This works only, when I download the game on my laptop at the same time. If the client on my laptop is not downloading I still get that error on my desktop computer. I changed a lot of network, firewall and antivirus settings but couldn't find out how to solve the problem.

Hey Guys,

also getting the said exception. I downloaded and installed the game and when I start the client, after "checking resources" the launcher just crashes and all it says is "Received a packet that is too large to deserialize".

Using Win7 64Bit as well.

Increase the interrupt frequency (or something synonymous) of your NIC. This can typically be accomplished through the device's configuration. It's possible this will work but as it's extremely implementation-dependent don't get your hopes up.

I am having the same problem. "Received a packet that is too large to deserialize" pops up upon attempting installation. Would connecting my desktop through an ethernet cable rather than by wireless adapter help alleviate this?

I am also getting this error. Windows 7 64 bit. I uninstalled the game because I was getting stuck at "Checking Resources" since the new patch. Now I can't even install it due to this error.
