CDN Asset Servers with corrupted files

Thought that if we had a way to tell anet to fix the cdn servers' corrupted files, it'd help ppl. corrupted files might cause lot of issues and most can be avoided if cdn servers serve healthy files

this post could be temporary until anet fixes all those cdn

people who find that the game client is indefinitely downloading and the file remaining counter doesnt change and download speed is very less and game is not downloaded to 100% may do this:

open command prompt and type teh command

"nslookup assetcdn.101.arenanetworks.com"

u might notice the cdn ip address in terminal post it here in this thread so the devs can pinpoint those specific nearest servers and load an healthy copy or something

corrupted cdn ip: 34.149.39.96

seems corrupted files are after 80% [fresh client download full game download] client update  download ie.. EOD expansion / patch files

They recently switched to using anycast, so that IP is the same for everyone.

As for the problem, more specifically the files are incomplete, as if the server was interrupted while originally downloading it and simply assumed that was the full file.
