ERROR CODE 1:85008S Server Disconnected every 10-30 minutes
Hi Everyone,
I am at my wit's end. Since BF6 launch (not the beta) I've been having connection issues. Every 10-30 minutes of play time, I get the same error. Sometimes it just kicks me to the menu, to the boot screen, or telling me I was "Kicked for Inactivity" when I was very much active. No other game (Counterstrike, Runescape etc) or App (e.g. Discord, Teams)) is recording any network connection issues, and often I am able to join straight back into my friends matches after being disconnected.
Here is what I have tried to resolve:
- EA and Steam versions of BF6
- Changing DNS settings on my router (Google and Cloudflare)
- Changing ISPs
- Obtaining a static IP from my provider (i found out they were using CG-NAT)
- Rebooting all network devices and PC
- Flushing DNS
- Verifying integrity of game files
- Allowed all instances of BF6 and EA anti-cheat through my Windows Firewall
- Contacting EA support (after a few suggestion resetting my hardware they directed me to create a post on here)
The only exception, is I have not changed from using a Wireless connection as its not possible for me to run a cable.
Now what has worked for me: Cloudflare's WARP VPN Service, it seems to somehow prevent me getting kicked, with the downside of a worse hit detection and what feels like increased lag in-game.
I have run the tracert commands as suggested in this post by EA_Vendcera both on my normal connection and using Cloudflare's WARP Vpn service. The logs are attached.
Is there any fix that doesn't involve a 3rd party VPN?
Thank you
