I have had this issue and it is driving me insane, I get disconnected from every game... i have roommates who play games everyday and they have no connection issues.

I play for maybe a minute then bammm, I'm out of the game ?
I have tried doing the ipconfig / FlushDNS, didnt seem to help.

what was it? is your system working now?

 

[napalmwaffle]

no, its not working. i was told that Antimalware software could cause some games to disconnect but i have not seen that working.

its been about 5 months now since ive had this issue and its getting worse somehow.

 

[napalmwaffle]

i also have a wifi adapter added to my build as well

 

[rgd1101]

[napalmwaffle]

First off what’s the mbps plan at place of residence? And if you’re not on wifi? Then who is? And who’s in charge of the whole thing is has controls of the main modem or the main modem/wifi router. These god forsaken cellphones are smart enough to eat up all bandwidth on the fastest connections. I ran a speed test on my iPhone X it can now do 120 mbps in a different city. That’s more than double on the same speed network. This location I’m at for networking testing in a god forsaken basement using 4 wireless routers... man.. there’s 600 mbps here, even in the basement my phone get the full 600 on wifi. I’ve even seen gigabit speeds. Someone is doing something and not tell you or you or them are exceeding bandwidth. So what’s the mbps plan? The term “hard wired” is basically reference to a modem and a Ethernet cable. Meaning not even having a wireless network or any other devices on the network. Even on wireless in this basement, the wireless is providing a Ethernet cable, but it’s still purely wireless, because it still gets internet from a wireless broadcast. So ya provide the mbps bandwidth limit please

did you or did you not scan the system for malware?

 

[napalmwaffle]

Maybe do a simple test and leave a constant ping run to your router IP. When the game disconnects you should see packet loss if you are actually getting a network outage.

If it is only the games being affected and not the ping command I would suspect something else rather than a network issue. The only way I could see ping work and game fail is if you have something like a vpn running.

 

[napalmwaffle]

idk how to do that but i can figure that out, any good software to download??

Questions:

Explain - what do you require that "good software" to do?

Make and model information for modem and router? Or if combined modem/router?

In your house who has full admin rights to the network router or modem/router as the case may be?

Go to the console [cmd] and run ipconfig
Locate the default GATEWAY IP for your adapter.

ping gatewayip -t

ie ping 192.168.1.1 -t

-t means unlimited pings, keep going til you stop it.

put the console window in the bckground and run a game until its having issues, then exit the game, move to the console window and hit CTRL + C. You are now telling tit to stop.

Paste the report line into here. This is JUST pinging the router in the house and so if problems are here, its either your computer or the Ethernet cable or maybe a bad port on the router.
