BF1 and VPN Issues

Im hoping someone can help me. Im not trying to do anything fishy, I bought the game legit and im playing in my own area.
The problem no matter what VPN i use, i cannot go online in BF1. Orgin will load and connect, and the game will load, but will not go online. If i load without VPN, BF1 will go online. What am doing wrong, I tried dynamic and static IPs.
Yes i have a reason for trying to play through a VPN in my own area. Its nothing illegal, we are trying to solve disconnect issues.

    i just went though a complete fresh w10 install, a complete drive wipe. after ill test this, then ill try the tether with a phone. Ill have to look up how to do that though. Im not messing with any of the settings in windows except the obvious things it wont hurt. thank you for the help, really i hope EA just fixes the issue. Im not the only one facing disconnects, its only BF1 for what ever reason. Battlefront and BF3 and 4 run fine.  However this issue has been discussed sense OCT on serveral forums with several threads. Only the community has been helping others out. EA has dropped the ball with it.

    well the fresh install did not change anything, BF1 is still the only game that disconnects and wont allow me to run a VPN

    My best guess to this troubling issue is to make sure DirectX 12 is disabled.
    Also, try logging out of your profile on the main menu, then log back in.

    Keep me updated on your progress!

    i have the same problem with bf4 and since my isp throttles so much, VPN is the only way i get stable internet. did you find a fix?

  • Hi!

    I'm in a hurry, but I had time to read your question/problem. Sometimes people forget this that games need admin launch to work, even with VPN. I have VPN all the time on, no problems.


    I hope you get yours fixed. So many bugs been around..."Waiting for hotfixes.."

    Best Regards
