haven't tried that, but i suspect the same thing will happen i will give it a try and let you know

[FurryNutz]

Ok, let me know.
If your interested, we can team viewer and see what your router settings and make sure it's set up.

[usmarine0622]

I got kicked out again. Sure I'll be up for that

What HW version is your router? A or B#?

Also are you using Port Forward or Application options?

[grandforker]

I had an issue very similar to this while trying to play 'Need for Speed: Shift" online (also an EA game). I could play for just a minute or two before getting kicked out of a race. There might be a better way to resolve this problem, but the one thing I did which worked was to put my PC's assigned IP address into a DMZ. After doing this, I never got dropped.

[FurryNutz]

You can add your PC to the QoS engine as well and give global ports and remote IP address ranges and set a priority instead of using DMZ.

Sorry it took so long to get back to you I was in a meeting. I have revision B and I tried to DMZ my desktop but tried playing it but i still got kicked off but I am able to play longer (10 mins before i got kicked out) .

[davevt31]

Is it Punkbuster kicking you or just disconnecting?

[usmarine0622]

just getting kicked out to the main menu, it happens on my PS3 too

[FurryNutz]

Does the PS and BF2 work ok if it's directly connected to the cable modem?

I think we need to start over from scratch.
Lets do a factory reset.
Add a DHCP (Static) reservation for the PS.
Setup a QoS Engine rule for the PS only. Use the Gamefule sticky information. Should be able to use Global IPs and ports: 0.0.0.0-255.255.255.255for remote IPs/0-65535 for ports.
Don't setup any Port Forwarding or Application rules, yet.

Ensure DNS IP addresses are being filled in under Setup/Internet/Manual?
Turn off Advanced DNS Services if you have this option.
Turn on DNS Relay under Setup/Networking.
Setup DHCP reserved IP addresses for all devices on the router.
Ensure devices are set to auto obtain an IP address.
Set Firewall settings to Endpoint Independent for TCP and UDP.

Test the PS only on this and see if BF2 still disconnects.

well it something with the router I was about to play for 45 mins without getting kicked out connected directly to the modem. I did a factory reset 2 times, the first time i did not configure anything at all I got kicked out. the 2nd time a added the port rules, I got kicked out

[usmarine0622]

So I went out and bought the linksys E4200 and I'm not having any problems and my connection is a lot faster. I don't know what the deal is with the router, I had to restart it at least 3 times a week for my wireless to work. I think im going to stay away from Dlink for awhile until they smooth things over.

[FurryNutz]

Sorry it didn't work out. I wish we had more of a chance to see how your settings were set up to make sure they were correct. Hope the new router works well. Enjoy.

[usmarine0622]

to be honest I dont think it was the settings everything was working fine up until a month ago. I did not have any problems connecting to EA servers. I did not change anything or add anything new to the network, it just stopped working one day and the wireless performance dropped and turned off completely at times. I would have to restart the router to correct the problem
