Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 5, 2021 Administrators Posted March 5, 2021 Is it possible for you to connect the PC directly to the router or the XR WiFi and see if you get the same issue?

Yeah I'll try it. As I said though, my friend has the same everything except for the switch and he still gets DCed. But I'll test it just to rule out any possibilities. EDIT: Just happened. Switch isn't the issue.
HyperFirez Posted March 6, 2021 Author Posted March 6, 2021 Could I potentially try to change my DNS servers? I am using 1.1.1.1 right now but maybe I should try Google DNS?
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 6, 2021 Administrators Posted March 6, 2021 You can try that but it's unlikely to make a difference unfortunately. In Traffic Prioritization can you make a custom rule for the device: Source 1-65535 Destination 1-65535 Protocol TCP/UDP and see if you notice a difference then please? You may experience lag on other devices but it's just for a test.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 7, 2021 Administrators Posted March 7, 2021 I've never seen anyone have this issue ever, I don't see what could be causing it, do you know if your ISP blocks any new equipment that you add?

Nah my ISP doesn't do that. Only thing I had to do was get them to provision my modem when I initially installed it. There are 1000s of comments on reddit/blizzard forums discussing this DC issue. I thought maybe it was the router because my friend with same isp and router also has had the issue. If you are at a loss then it must not be the router then. Either the ISP or ATVI/Blizzard issue. Ironically enough even though it says "Blizzard Server" in the error code, Blizzard support redirects you to Activision support and they also give you a run around. If there isn't anything else I could try I appreciate the help regardless.
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 7, 2021 Administrators Posted March 7, 2021 I did find a comment somewhere that uninstalling and reinstalling the Battle.net launcher resolved the issue, have you tried that?

The Battlenet launcher DCs for a second. I just saw it happen. Blizzard is saying it isn't their issue but I'll be damned if it isn't.

Where did you see that it disconnected for a second?

I was watching the launcher and saw it reload the page and take a second to re-connect me to their online services. I didn't drop connection on anything else, just Battlenet.

Then go to Settings, WAN Setup and input that IP into the Default DMZ Server option and click apply, then try again.

Should I enable any other setting in here?
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 9, 2021 Administrators Posted March 9, 2021 Yes that's right, click the tick box for Default DMZ server and enter that IP in, then click Apply, you can leave the other settings as they are

Testing it now. Just curious what does this do? EDIT: Welp that didn't last. I think it is literally just the game or my ISP.
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 11, 2021 Administrators Posted March 11, 2021 It would pass traffic straight through to the device bypassing the normal routing so I would have thought if it was the router at fault then that would have resolved it. Try in WAN Settings switching NAT to Open as that relaxes the firewall - you can also remove the PC from the DMZ.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 12, 2021 Administrators Posted March 12, 2021 I don't think they are any other settings we can change now that would affect this so I'm not sure if it is the router. Have you tested directly to your modem? Have you run the launcher as an Administrator?

I have tried launching in admin to no avail but I haven't tried direct connect to my modem
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 12, 2021 Administrators Posted March 12, 2021 Okay try direct to the modem and let us know what happens.
