Lost connection to server

[Skittles]

Hey guys I just noticed this happening a few days before 1.0 launched. Played 1.0 fine for the past few days and it is happening again. I join a server, walk around for 30 seconds and lose connection to the server. I put myself in my routers temp DMZ to make sure all ports were open to see if that was the issue, still happens. I am hard wired to a cable connection roughly 60mb down 15 up. It only happens with PR. I won't lose connection to TS3. So it's something with PR, I just can't seem to figure it out! Any knowledge would be appreciated! I can provide a dxdiag if you guys need to know my hardware.

Strange, happening to me too. So many people seem to be experiencing this problem now, don't know what the fix is. For some reason, I can play for a long time on some servers and then later for only 20 minutes.

Don't remember having this issue before 1.0

If it's the 5 minute kick problem, it's probably a false UDP flood protection mechanism kicking in from your router's firewall.

Try disabling your router's onboard firewall as well as DMZing your computer (but don't leave it that way for long, it's not very secure). It should solve your issue, Skittles

Disabling my firewall, EAX, and VOIP helped for a while, then all of a sudden it started back up later in the day. Otherwise, it was standard server lag and crash
