Default GW Client wont start

Well, I have GW installed at my own place and works fine. But I also wanne install GW at school so I can play a little bit during class. And yes thats possible over here

So ive just downloaded the client and started it, but it doesnt stops at a certain point all the bloody time.

How is this possible?

It stops at: Connecting to Arenanet
At about 90%

And yes Ive my own PC hard drive over here, and the PC is pretty good so thats not the problem.

Firewall? Yes Windows Firewall is enabled, but same thing when its not

You're school has a firewall port closed that GW requires. The port you play the game on isn't the same as the port you patch the game on.

You can patch fine because GW uses a standard port (a port your campus has open), but when it goes to launch the game and attach to the GW games servers it uses a port that your campus doesn't allow outbound (or inbound or both) traffic on.

ah, it'd be better downloading Builds/Patches when you're away from school so you can get up to date with it, otherwise, there's the ADMIN computer you can try to override...
