hey bud

#

Do you happen to have access to a VPN service?

loud ingot
#

I don't use a vpn on desktop

fiery shoal
#

It could help figure out a solution

#

Or the problem

loud ingot
#

Ah i see, I can access a VPN if you mean that

#

I recently clean reinstalled windows so its not currently installed

#

I'm in the UK and joining EU servers

#

It's just a shot in the dark but from experience, routing issues and connectivity issues can cause all sorts of problems. Possibly it can be alleviated by accessing a low latency VPN service for a couple rounds just to see what happens.

#

Also, are you using WiFi?

loud ingot
#

No I'm hard wired straight to my router

fiery shoal
#

That's good. Is the network shared with anyone? What's your speed?

loud ingot
#

I get around 150Mbps down, 30 up

#

It's a rock solid connection even when 4k streaming and gaming

#

I can try using my VPN to eliminate routing issues

fiery shoal
#

That'd be worth a try IMHO. Let me know how it goes

#

I also checked that EAC and Squad were allowed through firewall

fiery shoal
#

If you are able to join a server and you are not kicked within 2 minutes I would assume it's not a regular firewall rule.

#

Although there may be firewall related issues that do not happen when using a VPN

#

It's a strange issue and my gut is saying an issue with the game, connection is perfectly fine for a few games, then it just stops working, no server allows me to join

#

Another topic would be monitoring your traffic over the period you are playing. In and outgoing connections and traffic size

loud ingot
#

never had issues with other online games

fiery shoal
#

Yet, Squad is kinda specific in how it's networking is built

#

So it may be sensitive to something another game isn't

loud ingot
#

Ok well thanks for your time, with any luck a solid vpn connection solves it

#

maybe its to do with my DNS? I just use my regular providers DNS

fiery shoal
#

No worries. If it happens with VPN lmk.
Although I'm not sure what else there would be to try at that point.
If you lose VPN connection during your play that would be a good indicator.

Please consider monitoring your traffic
