Every now and then, I'll be able to play for 30 minutes straight, but usually I get disconnected shortly after joining the server and my entire internet dies for a few minutes

Hm, if your entire internet dies... Perhaps a firewall and/or a router issue?

I get disconnected only by my isp because they suck!!!

in my case if im lucky ill be able to finish a round, usually i get disconnected every 5 to 10min after a round. i really dont know if its da isp or da mod itself

I think you both should do a clean reinstall of bf2 and the mod+hotfix

well it happens sometimes in regular bf2, maybe its my isp

It's only been happening since Saturday.

Was there a hotfix I missed?

Nope
if it has been only from saturday then it is definatly on your end and not the server.

It has to be your ISP, if you tried to join a server with a different version of PRMM, it would CTD on the load screen

I'm so ****ing pissed because PRMM is the only game I play

Are you using a Wifi connection?

No idea if this is the cause, but I read on TBF2 that dual core CPUs suffer from an issue with BF2 that manifests itself as random conection failures.

Here's the thread with a link to a patch from AMD (or maybe MS) that addresses the issue:

And another thread about this problem:

And as Fritz pointed out... if yer on wireless.... hrm...... well I gave up on gaming over a wireless network and run hard wire for the home network, but have wireless for guests, laptops, etc.

ymmv

egg

he came on our server and got disconnected again, but thats prolly becuase we had to keep taking it down and back up, and down....

Yeah, I remember seeing this at a LAN, I beleive the solution was to disable a certain property. I remeber totalbf2.com had a guide of some sort to solve the problem.

Wireless works great for me,

I had a problem like that when I installed PRMM, it seems the first time I ran PRMM it didn't pick up on my settings from the vanilla BF2. In short my connection setting was set incorrectly and just needed to be changed.

It seems that the mod doesn't pick up on changes to your configuration for regular BF2.

Now I can't even log in

I've been gaming wireless since 2004, and this is the first time I've encountered major problems. And it's for my favorite ****ing game, damnit!

Prior to this week, PRMM has never given me any problems
