Title: Soon As I log Into arena Connection is lost
Post by: Prayerz on March 16, 2010, 03:49:15 PM
This recently just started happening. Cant say it is the patch but i suspect it has something to do with it. Last night the game ran fine after new patch was installed for a few hours. Today i tried to log in (at two seperate times four hours apart) and it would let me enter a arena but as soon as i was in maybe 3 seconds it would switch to session and it would say connection to host has been lost. After about 30 attemps, it was still doing the same thing. It seems like everytime i go into a arena it shuts my connection off. But I can alt tab and still bring up internet explorer and test my connection, while im at the arena selection page.

Itīs ok here.

Connecting from Rio de Janeiro, Brasil, using 4 MBPS cable.

Avg ping is 156. In game Netstatus ok.

Did you check your firewall(if any) settings?

I went as far as turning my fire wall off. On ping plotter everything is fine till i enter the arena then its 100 percent package lost. Then after game shuts down everything is fine, Never had a problem with firewall before.

I have the screen to select arena open right now, and its showing 66-78 ping but as soon as i enter a arena connection is lost. This is so weird. When Im in the arena and hit alt tab, my connection resumes. but as soon as i bring the game back up with alt tab it loses connect, then i alt tab out again and it connects.....

I ran PingPlotter for a few minutes with no problem. 77 average round trip. Lost a few packets here and there.

Then I ran it with Aces High minimized and a couple minutes later the packet loss went to 65 then higher. All the loss starts at IP 206.16.60.38.
As soon as I shut the game down, everything is fine again.

Packet loss is a serious problem and should never occur.  It is what causes discos. 

If it happens on the last hop, or next to the last hop, I have to run a trace back your computer IP address, as the packet loss is acually happening on the return trip back to your computer.  You cannot see that route with Ping Plotter, or any other piece of software.
