Do you have someone elso in your household (someone that uses the same router to access the internet) that plays BF2042 while you do?
@kregora: Yes, what you describe seems do be exactly my problem.
To your questions, of coure my wife is streamng while I'm playing, but we have 100mbps download and 10mbps Upload speed... I guess the download/upload rates shouldn't be a problem and have it has never been a problem the whole year before.
I also performed serveral speedtests to see if there is something wrong with the performance of my connection, but the rates seem to be pretty steady.
And there is no one else connected to my Router who is playing BF or any other EA game.
There is one thing mentioned in the connectivity guides which I couldn't do. It is the stuff about giving ports free on my router. My router is provided by may internet provider and it does not allow me to do this. Could this cause these problemes? And if yes, why did it work the whole year before.
Anyway I will now have a try and hope that repairing the game maybe fixed the problem. I'll give feedback.

OK Feedback: 3 Rounds played, 2 times kicked with the same problem. So repairing the game was not the solution :-(
Are there other ideas?
- kregora3 years agoSeasoned Ace@Hanelores84 I had some issues with a ISP that does IP based traffic shaping. I could solve the issue by using a VPN. Maybe that would be an option for you.
For me BF2042 game servers usually run in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. So I setup my VPN to a Frankfurt server. This would also address potential issues with multiple clients playing the same game.- 3 years ago
@kregora Thank for the tipps I Tryied some stuff meanwhile. First thing, I dissabled the overlays of Geforce experience and the EA app and had one full evening without kicks from the Server. Today the issue is back in its best. I'm kicked everytime after 2-3 Minutes. Also the VPN Client didn't change anything. It's always the same...
Is someone else having this issue?
