Hi,
I'm having communication error when I run the installer for Autodesk Building Design Suite 2014.
As I've read other threads and followed troubleshooting steps, it is still not working.
Is there any link for direct download for Autodesk Building Design Suite 2014 Premium?
I've managed to download the installer with no issue.
When I run the installer, it gives a communication error message stating that the connection from autodesk to pc is lost.
I did not move the installation file, there is no website opened when installing, I cannot open network ports due to network policies.
You need to keep the website open until the moment you see the welcome page of the installer for the suite.
I am also having this same exact issue as stated above. I have followed all of the steps listed above and still no avail. Please help.
Hi,
I've just recently updated my pc from windows 7 to windows 8 and I'm having the exact same problem: 'Communication Failure'.
I have a disabled all firewall systems, however the same issue is still occuring. I've also spoken to ASUS the manufacturer, who suggested a reinstallation process of windows 8, after which it continued to display 'Communication Failure'.
Much appreciated if you could provide any information or direct links to downloading Revit 2014 and AutoCAD 2014.

Hi Daniel,
After accepting the web EULA, remain on the web page till the time the .exe is completely downloaded. Once it is downloaded, click/run the .exe. Till the time you run the downloaded .exe, do not click on any other links or buttons within the same autodesk portal page.
Do not click on the already downloaded <>_Setup.exe, that will not work. You need to go back to portal and click on Install Now button for each re-install attempt.
Hope this helps, let me know otherwise.
more of the same for me. have read this entire thread and acted accordingly but no luck what ever i try. im trying to install the autocad 2014.
Are you starting the workflow from the Install Now button on the web page and then waiting on the web page till the time a small self extracting .exe gets downlaoded? Once it gets downloaded, click on the .exe. Untill the point where you run the .exe, do not refresh, close or click on any other links in the web page from where you clicked on Install Now button.
If the problem is still appearing not resolving, then drop me a private message.
did all of the above, finally managed to resolve the issue by using the 'Browser download' option. thanks for your help regardless
