SUMMARY: I receive ERROR_30008 when I try and log in to the server
Bug Type: Connection/Battle.net Bug
I note there are other threads which comment on this appearing in a number of situations. I've started a new thread just to have one which fully explains the bug.

I get this message when I try to connect to Battle.net on the home screen of the D3 client.

My client is able to connect with battle.net servers. I know this because when I try and put in an incorrect password, I get an "Incorrect password" message. So, we know that this is not a problem with the authentication, but occurs somewhere after that.

Retrying does not help. I tried approx 5 times spaced out over 10 minutes and got the same error each time. I will update and advise if it continues to occur, or if it is just during certain times of the day.

Battle.net is down.
