What a technician must be able to justify
Technician visit
These are the steps they must carry out and show you. Tick them as they work: if steps are skipped, do not accept a part swap.
These are not instructions for opening or handling the equipment yourself. They are the checks that should support a technical conclusion.
Blizzard technical support
What they doIf the error persists on a good connection with the system up to date, Blizzard checks whether the fault is on its side and reviews your case.
They must show youwhether there is a known incident and the ticket number.
In writingthe code, the time of the failure and the steps already tried.
Internet provider
What they doIf the download only fails on your usual connection and works on another network, the provider checks the line and the router it supplied.
They must show youtheir line test result.
In writingthe incident number and what changed.
Before accepting a part or repair
Nothing has been shown yet. Do not accept a part swap based on the code alone.
Follow these steps
Note: Follow the documented order. An error code identifies the affected system, but it does not prove by itself which part has failed.
Restart the app and the PC
- Who:
- you.
- How:
- fully close Battle.net and open it again; if the error stays, restart the PC and open the app again.
- Result that matters:
- whether the app loads your games without the code after restarting it or the PC.
- If it loads:
- a stalled Agent process or a background program was interfering.
- If it stays:
- check the connection.
- Evidence to keep:
- the time of each restart and whether the code came back.
Evidence: BLZBNTBNA00000066
Connection quality
- Who:
- you.
- How:
- if you use Wi-Fi or a slow line, connect the PC to the router by cable or try another network, and stop downloads or video on other devices while Battle.net downloads.
- Result that matters:
- whether the file download finishes on a better connection.
- If it finishes:
- the connection was insufficient or unstable.
- If it stays on a good connection:
- it may be on Blizzard's end; leave the app open, as it keeps retrying.
- Evidence to keep:
- the connection type used and a speed test result.
Evidence: BLZBNTBNA00000066
Windows and driver updates
- Who:
- you.
- How:
- install anything pending in Windows Update and update drivers, especially network drivers, from your PC maker; restart.
- Result that matters:
- whether the error goes away with the system up to date.
- If it goes away:
- there was a system or driver incompatibility.
- If it stays with everything updated and a good connection:
- the case is for Blizzard support.
- Evidence to keep:
- the Windows and network driver versions after updating.
