There is a problem with Your connection

Post by mebel »

I'm getting disconnected all the time:
Connection to server has been lost...

I found this happening especially where there is much traffic on mumble. I've tried to disable QoS but with no result.

It seems to me, it could be related to ISP or modem - after a hard resetting modem I started to get those disconnects everytime. The game hangs for a moment, and I get disconnected.

Looks like I've found the solution:

My modem is Thomson TWG870UG. I began to ping it (modem adress) a lot while in game - there was 2 strange things that I noticed:
1. I've got my usual ping to router kinda big - from 2 to approx 8 ms.
2. The disconnect occurs whenever there was a ping spike up to 18000ms. I suppose that was caused by modem trying to change 802.11 to n-mode.

I've disabled n-mode - and the usual ping decreased to about 1,6ms. I've also disabled some features on it that could cause a bit lag. I did not experienced disconnect since this change. Hope it will stay like that.

If that works, I will be extremely happy.

This issue make me stop playing PR, the huge thread above just recomends changing the modem, impossible to me.

The issue above is WiFi being WiFi. If you're using WiFi that you're unsure its reliable, don't use it. BF2 has issues with heavy packet loss and nothing can be done or will ever be done about it.
