I have Windows 10, both Punkbuster A and Punkbuster B are running. 5 seconds after joining the Free Candy Van server, I get kicked and receive this message "Your connection to the server has been lost.". How can I fix this? I fixed it yesterday but today it is doing it again

DMZ your PC?
Or turn off firewall to see if that helps. (Remember to turn it on after)

DMZ is a router firewall term it means to direct any unforwarded traffic to your rig by default.

I think he just wanted to know how stable your internet provider is. Typically dialup or satellite internet is not as reliable as cable, fiber, dsl etc.

BTW put stuff like this in support forum next time

Is there any risks when you DMZ a pc?

That would indeed be the point of running Speedtest.
