Well opening to 80 or 4711 did it for me, I played 3 full rounds. I seem to be fixed for the time being.

Further, I completely bypassed the router and that didn't solve it. :/


Honestly, the issue is being more and more random. It doesn't matter what factors I change, sometimes it happens and sometimes it doesn't.

I'm even starting to think that maybe it's my ISP: my ping on PRTA also went from like in the 25 range to 72 yesterday.

That's curious as those should be server-only ports. 80 is HTTP for Battlerecorder (I think) and 4711 is Rcon.

My router won't even forward those 3 port ranges because it says: ''The Port Range Already Exists''..

It probably have nothing to do with this , but still worth a shot !
Run the game and join a online server
Press ~ key to open game console , and enter following command :
pb_sleep 500
pb_writecfg

That's gonna be my next attempt at fixing this should it happen again.

Stupid problem.. the Devs haven't replied in some time.

This is a fairly complicated issue as it could be caused by any number of things. The DEV's themselves are fairly busy attending to the development of the modification and do not have the time to respond to these requests. There are only a couple people dedicated to providing support and I know Litoralis is doing all he can but I fear he's running out of ideas. :/

I know this is a frustrating issue, believe me. Just give them some time to work something out.

I've tried and tried pb_sleep 500 all the time. No dice. Im so desperate that everytime I type it I feel like its working then boom.....rejoin and retype.

I have tried this as well. Nothing.

pb_sleep 500 doesn't do much. that number 500 is a number in milliseconds, so it changes the pb pings from 100 milliseconds, i.e. 1 seconds, to 500 ms, ie. 5 seconds.

My guess is that it has to do with punkbuster.

It appears my issue may have been resolved, I just survived three full rounds on Hardcore without being disconnected.

This morning I performed a complete reset all of my networking devices. By complete, I mean holding both the pinhole reset buttons on my router and modem for several seconds.
After re configuring my router and opening 16567UDP, 4712TCP/UDP, and 27901UDP I was able to play the aforementioned three rounds (over three hours) without issue.

Will try. Ill post how it goes.

KertusRay, what make and model of router? And if possible, which firmware revision?

It's a pain for sure, but let's face it and be patient, the more you limit and remove objects from maps makes it less PR.

It's been 5 or so hours. How did it go?

No luck at all.
