I have SWG patching trouble!!

About 4 months ago i played swg, then i quit for 2 months uninstalling the game, but now i want to go back. Problem is im on 56k and SOE isnt kind to us 56k'ers. I have freshly re-installed SWG and paid for 1 months acount time to find that i have to spend 2 days patching. I thought ok, this wont be so bad really ill just get it chunk by chunk. Well, that was the plan. My ISP dissconnects me every 2 hours for some unbeknown reason which as you can imagine really hampers the patching progress. I have got to patch6 but it just wont download in 2 hours. So im stuck, ive paid for play time which i cant use and there is no way possible to log in, i tried to get this on the SOE SWG forums but it wont let me log in. Would it be possible for someone to upload some of the patches onto an ftp server or even burn them onto a disc and send it to me, becuase otherwise, im pretty much in the shit.
Thanks

I had to start from scratch too....but only took me 6 minutes
to update everything
People who have to create conspiracy and hate threads to further a cause lacks in intellectual comprehension of diversity.
You are the customer! Call up your ISP and demand to know why they always keep disconnecting you every 2 hours. Hey you are paying htem for a service, and you are not getting served. Not right.
The entire SWG patches took 1 hour for one of my friends to get after he signed up for the 14 day free trial. (The 2 GIG game took 3 hours for him to download.) He left his computer on at night while he slept.
No ISP should be disconnecting their paying customer every 2 hours, or any time at all without any explanation.

Lo mukka....sounds like a throwback to my old BT days....hang on...check you bio....guessed it your a brit
. I had similar probs back in my BT 56k days.
Some games used to have site where you could DL patches via the out of game site so you could DL the patch via gozilla or something...
does SWG have this option?? Or mate phone them up and change your subscription. Those sort of free isp's are for infrequent users and not gamers.

Yeah, good point, panache! Is the initial poster's ISP going to disconnect him every two hours while playing?!? Buzz kill for sure if so!

Heh....back in the days when a quid would buy me 10 fag's and a pint less that a quid, i used to play in a UT clan.....used to have a hour praccy before match and then the match. I had to remember to relog on my isp after praccy so i would be sure i didn't get disconnected 15 mins before the end of match
change isp mate
