Post; About EA Link (downloader)


Who has this EA link??

I am fed up with it !

Please someone help if possible..

Eveytime I try to connect, this message appears:




I am sure I am connected.. but could the servers be temporarily unavailable?? It looks like permanantly for me.. seriously.. I wait for ever..

What should I do??

Are you behind a firewall? if so check the settings make sure the right ports are open.

the steam thing is WAY better than that of EA imo.
EA sometimes works, sometimes doesnt.. makes u mad.

Also, there arent as many games available for purchasing and downloading right? or is there a way I can view older games? purchase them and then begin downloading?

I think i've had one problem since it got online heh

Not sure why you experience that, do you have a firewall in your router?

In some cases it's the ISP that blocked the port, some ISPs are either scared about everything or like to make their customers have hassels. I would contact them and ask if they block any ports. Remember to be nice when calling

EDIT: Okey it seems to be my second problem now, to many people are trying at the same time downloading stuff so they are having problems.

Hmm yeah I saw a message saying that they (EA) are apologizing. Hope they fix the problem.
And I am thinking in the future to change the ISP
