Getting disconnected?

Dcully · 2006-01-15 15:57:58

Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing random dosconnections from wow? Almost everytime i login and enter world i get disconnected a minute later. When i rejoin i can be fine for hours or maybe 30 minutes later im disconnected again. I know the recent patch was meant to sort this but itsnot for me :(

generally if ur experiencing disconnects like that.....then its propably ur add-ons. Make sure u update all ur addons (that can be) and then if it still persists turnoff some of ur addons and see if its one of them that kicks u off.

i know i got disconnected alot after the patch came out coz of my ct raid addon. Had to update and after i was fine.

They made a massive EFF up with the latest patc, I couldn't play for 5days due to disconnections. everything was configured correct, and hey bingo back to being fine again without changing anything.

Blizz are feckin useless bellixes. The Comp - Tweaking / Modding crew from boards could do a better job, with 10 PIII's and a few KVM Switchs

Ive tried everything suggested on many forums including tech support official.
Its only since the latest 2 patches which were in quick succession to eachother.
Before them all was well.

Im getting sick of it tbh and so close to cancelling wow.
Its anything from 3-6 disconnects per jour now
When it gets really late with a lowly populated realm i might get to stay connected for a few hours.
It is not a hardware or connection problem as i have done extensive testing on both.
Support ticket submitted to blizzard as a final throw of the dice,love wow but this is infuriating now,so close to jacking it in and booting up guild wars again.

Hrm - someone I know had a similar problem and went mucking about with their network card settings - something about changing to full duplex or similar silliness which shouldn't (as far as I know) resolve the issue but did. Might be worth screen shotting your settings (if you don't know them off by heart) and then experimenting a little.

something like this happens to me every time just after a patch has been released. Have to delte all the mods in my interface folder then just keep logging in and it sorts itself out after awhile. Then i restore the mods.

Are you using a dsl connection?

Me and a mate are playing and are getting diss'd at the same time. Noone else on our server is having that problem so I'm putting it down to the isp. Hope it sorts itself out soon ffs.

myself and 2 friends are getting constantly disconnected at the moment. its bloody annoying. tried changing dns as well, but it only worked for a few minutes. and since i still have net access, it must be a blizzard problem.

Is this an Eircom issue here; or is anybody experiencing this not with Eircom?

Somebody has posted about it on Technical Support
