Connection timed out for 1 month+

[=GR= Cypher]

Hello everyone. I keep getting connection time out issues for over a month now. The last couple of days it got worse by disconnecting me over and over again with out even taking off the ground. I contacted my internet provider and they informed me that everything looks ok but the log file says that i select to disconnect from the servers.

 

 

Any ideas?

 

 

Thank you

Hi Cypher, can you please attach your dcs.log file?

 

 

Are you using a wired or Wi-Fi connection?

Have you looked at your Windows Event Viewer to search for Ethernet issues?

Just added the log file. It's a wired connection. What do i look for in the event viewer? Thank you!

It maybe worth trying a VPN, I have seen a few have disconnect issues, and it is usually the ISP.

 

If you can do a test with a VPN you can rule out your ISP as the problem.

 

thank you

For a start my ISP is changing my router as a first measure. It all started in mid May. Thought it might be an open beta issue but it wasn't. Still tried clean installation of the open beta but the issue kept on. Yesterday and today it got worse and timed me out after 5 minutes on the servers.

 

 

VPN is a quite expensive solution for me right now so i will try the new equipment from the ISP and maybe static IP to resolve any issues.

 

 

Thank you.

Open the Windows section, and look for issues (red icons) or warnings (yellow icons) in the System, Software and Security sub-sections.

 

See if any incident happens at the same time you get disconnected from the game.

i have just got into DCS MP and see they use IPv6. do you have it enabled and is your ISP routing it? what is the ISP?

I haven't checked it out to be honest but I suppose I would have problems with the MP long time before the issue started. Seems like I choose to disconnect from the servers in a way I can't tell.

I have been getting random “server connection time outs”

Since I started using OB just after the first major 2.56 patch.

Not savy enough to track the issue. When it gets annoying I just put my junk away and do something else. Haven’t flown in about a month so may be fixed, dunno

Hey everyone. Thank you for the assistance. The problem was solved with a simple router change as it seemed.

Good! Thanks for letting us know.
