Please Help! Connection Timed Out

[RDDL405]

Hi everyone! I am in need of some desperate help. Every time I try to play DCS for a long period of time, I get disconnected with a "connection timed out" message. However, at the same time, my Chrome websites get disconnected as well, giving me a "Connection was interrupted" message with the ERR_NETWORK_CHANGE code. I have called my ISP, and they have replaced my router, worked on the modem, and I have updated the drivers to my Ethernet adapter and LAN ports. I've also flushed my DNS, reset my connections, set my default connection to 8.8.8.8 and 4.4.4.4, I've looked online, everything. I hate starting my F-14 and flying for an hour then getting disconnected every time. If anyone can help me, I'd be unbelievably grateful. This only happens on my PC, my roommate is also connected straight to the router and he doesnt have this issue, indicating its something on my end. :helpsmilie:

when you ping 8.8.8.8 for a couple hours, does it happen then too ?

 

command is: ping 8.8.8.8 /t

 

make sure you do not run any power savings plan on the system. It shouldnt engage while you are gaming but who knows.

 

Set your LAN to a static IP instead of DHCP. Some routers have very short lease times and maybe your room mate is on static...

 

other than that...not easy to locate I guess

maybe post some of the DCS logs somewhere somebody can have a look? I would try running a traceroute to the server you fly on.. are you behind 2 routers?? which OS are you running?

Ill try to get some logs next time it happens, I only have one router, and OS is Windows 10

Is this one of those things where it helps to go into the registry editor and change the time out value?
