Hi, I'm playing in a server hosted by a friend of mine, but I keep having an issue since day zero which consists in losing connection fully random. The latency is not an issue, I mostly have 15ms, the server resources are not either since has 8GB dedicated memory and Dual Xeon CPU.
My computer has 32GB, and 4 dedicated to the modpack (I could give more, I just left the CurseForge's default configuration) with an I9 12th + 3090TI.

Sometimes the crash happens one next to eachother really frequently, other times is not, there isn't a specific pattern really. Probably now it's happening more often because we did some other machinery in the modpack, but still nothing so big, just some Mekanism stuff.

Also, my friend is not crashing at all...

Any ideas on how to fix it? I thouoght at installing Connectivity mod, would that work?

4GB is a bit tight, for the pack, client side.
otoh, that looks like, maybe, a network problem crash.

I'm going to try with 8GB. If it was a network problem, why isn't my friend crashing aswel?

Connection Reset means that the network connection between you and the server no longer exists/was disconnected, either by you or some network device between you and them, or their server

#

The latency is not an issue and even the connectivity itself. (I have a 200mbit connection)

#

Yeah, but that should happen on other client / players aswel no? Why just me

#

are you both connected to the same server through the same LAN devices with the same hardware and software running on your PCs?

#

if everything is identical, i would say that that, yes, it should, but at that point it could be the router port or some other connection point that is not shared

#

Uhm, got the point, but still don't know what it could be on network-side...

#

firewalls, wifi interference, your ISP doing maintenance and not telling you, etc

#

do you ahve the server logs?

#

Not at the moment, but they were saying the common "timed out" thing

#

I could get them tomorrow

#

But there was no error or any meaningful message

grand quiver Jul 25, 2025, 9:03 PM

#

yeah, timed out means that it wasnt a clean disconnect. I would suggest maybe keeping a resource monitor of some sort open with a good 30 minute time window visible so that if you disconnect you can see if there was a bottleneck, sudden network traffic drop, etc

#

if its a personal server, you may also be able to keep a persistent ping command running so you can see if you are having random disconnects

Oh that is a good idea, I'll try for sure
