Guild Wars 2 is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game developed by ArenaNet and published by NCSoft and ArenaNet. The game takes place in the fantasy world of Tyria.

The game is set in a persistent world with a story that evolves through instanced environments.
You may be having trouble connecting to the Guild Wars 2 servers. Users have encountered error messages like "Connection Error Detected. The Connection Error Detected" issue occurs when Windows users try to open Guild Wars Launcher in Normal or Recovery mode. The issue has been detected on Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10.
What is causing the "Connection Error Detected" message in Guild Wars 2?
Firewall Error: These two ports (80 and 443) may be blocked by your firewall. If this scenario applies, you can configure whitelisting rules specifically for these two ports or remove the third-party package that is causing the problem.
Ports 80 and 443 are blocked: This set is basically based on the 2 main ports to communicate with the megaserver. If these two items are not open, expect to see this error every time you try to download the latest version of the game. In this case you can solve the problem by enabling UPnP or manually entering the 2 ports needed.
The Guild Wars 2 installer is blocked: If you have downloaded a modified version of Guild Wars 2, it is possible that the executable is blocked, which is why Windows refuses to give it any permissions. If you get this error message when trying to install the game, check if the executable is really locked (and unlock it if it is).
Corrupted Game Cache: Under certain circumstances, this issue can occur due to corrupted data in the Guild Wars 2 cache folder. In this case, you can use File Explorer to access this folder and delete its contents to fix the problem.
DNS Mismatch: As some affected users have confirmed, this issue can also be caused by a mismatch in your DNS (Domain Name System). In this case, you can solve the problem by deleting your current DNS or switching to Google DNS.
How to Fix "Connection Error Detected" in Guild Wars 2
Allow access to the firewall program and exclude Guild Wars 2 from the antivirus program
You may not be able to connect to Guild Wars 2 servers because your system's security software denies you access to the game's network. This problem mainly occurs because these programs consider the game suspicious. You can exclude the game in your third-party antivirus and add Assetcdn.101.ArenaNetworks.com to your firewall's list of accepted connections and see if that solves the problem.
Make sure you are connected to the internet
Since this error is network related, you need to make sure your computer is connected to a network with reliable internet access.
