Battlefield 3 Disconnection Errors - This is becoming rediclous, I can't even play.

Problem

 

Whenever I go to play battlefield I keep getting disconnected.

How long have i been having this issue I hear your ask, consider it as 1 year. However, it was half bareable as the disconnections were only every like half an hour or so. Not ideal, but bareable.

 

Now, it's every 30 seconds, I have tryed so many soloutions which i will list below, and it doesn't work. It's becoming a joke.

 

One thing I would notice is that depending on if I disable or enable upnp I do get different errors. 

 

Errors

 

With UPNP on -  "You were disconnected from EA Online ⚽"

 

With UPNP off -  "Game disconnected: your connection to the server timed out."

 

Soloutions Tryed

 

Allow Battlefield 3 on firewall - Done, not fixed.

Reinstalled Origin - Done, not fixed.

Reinstalled Battlelog Plugin - Done, not fixed.

Deleted %temp% data - Done, not fixed.

My patience is running thin.

    Hello.

    Have you updated Your punkbuster? :  follow the steps below: 
    Download and install the PBSVC program from http://www.evenbalance.com/downloads/pbsvc/pbsvc.exe [evenbalance.com] 

    Open the program and Uninstall PunkBuster 
    This will clear any older versions of PunkBuster that may be experiencing an issue 

    After uninstalling the program, download and run PBSetup from http://evenbalance.com/index.php?page=pbsetup.php [evenbalance.com] 
    Once downloaded, open PBSetup and select Add a Game and add Battlefield 3 from the available list. 

    After adding Battlefield 3, click Check for Updates until you receive a message stating No New Updates Needed. 
    This may take several updates depending on the game and version of PunkBuster. 

    If that didn't Work,  you can try deleting hosts file that is located in C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc 
    Backup this file before you delete it, in case something goes wrong tho... 

    Cheers
