BF V disconnects

[Bintje_NL]

When playing BF V (and only when playing BF V), I get connection stutters or lag spikes every 10 minutes or so. And occasionally, this leads to my entire network connection resetting, effectively disconnecting me from the game, Origin and my home network. This only ever happens when I'm playing BF V, I want that to be clear, but I'm at a loss as to how to fix this. I've looked all over the forums, but all I get is 'check your connection'. My connection is fine and works without issue on every other game, it's just BF V that's causing this issue.

Hey @Bintje_NL 

Sounds frustrating what you're going through and thanks for checking these boards for possible solutions before posting.

I imagine you've already tried opening up ports for BFV. If not, they are listed in this help article below.

This might be a longshot, but another player was experiencing this same exact issue and was able to fix it by because of a Motherboard killer nic built in it.

Well, I tried it and for a few weeks it seemed to have worked. I still got the occasional lagspike or crash due to those, but no more random disconnects. Until today. So back to square one, I guess.

Hey @Bintje_NL,

Have you also given these steps a try?

Like EA_Blueberry said, opening Ports also helps with these connection issues. If you haven't tried that yet, it may help the situation.

Let us know.

Thanks

Tried this and although the lagspikes are still a thing, I haven't had any random disconnects for 2 weeks. Let's hope it holds up.
