Archebuddy Authentication issues

[d3remz]

Hello,

I bought an archebuddy key and getting:

2:17:10 PM: Authentication failed! Check is your Buddy Auth keys valid and check your sessions.

I have researched and tried every suggested fix. This is what I have tried:

- Reinstall AB
- Installed all updates (framework etc)
- Key hand typed to avoid ghost spaces, exactly as shown on the buddy auth portal
- Direct connection to router on DMZ (all ports) open
- No anti virus or firewall interference whatsoever


Log just says
2:17:09 PM: Game Client detected
2:17:10 PM: Authentication failed! Check is your Buddy Auth keys valid and check your sessions.


Please let me know what else I can try.

Thank you

This can be only if your firewall blocks Buddy auth servers, or if you enter incorrect key, or reach sessions limit on this key (check it here Home Page - Buddy Auth Portal)

There is no firewall, either software or physical.
The key has been checked many times and there aren't any spaces or anything.
The session never really appeared on Buddy auth, i have check.

Also my key says it experies in 9999, i assume it is because it wasn't actually ever used.

Send me to private your key and your buddy auth nickname. And is you copypaste this key from buddyAuth site to ArcheBuddy?

Still having the problem. Out tested my key and it worked for him (It is now shown as active on the buddy auth page)

Since we last spoke, I have tried a fresh install of windows (with firewall and antivirus disabled of course), tried on a Virtual machine and tried on my laptop.

Still getting the authentication error, and I am now fresh out of ideas on what to try. If anyone has any input it would be much appreciated.
