    This happens in all servers or just one server? Have you tried checking your internet connection and restarted it?

    The orange triangle represents that there is something wrong with your internet connection.

    Try the following steps:

     

    Resetting your router 

    Step 1

    Locate the "Reset" button on the back of your modem.

    Step 2

    Push the button with sharp instrument, such as a pen or paper clip, and hold it for five to 10 seconds.

    Step 3

    Release the button and allow the modem to fully reboot. The modem is fully rebooted when all the front lights become solid.

     

    Power Cycling

    Step 1

    Unplug your router, if you have one between the modem and computer.

    Step 3

    Unplug the modem from the wall or surge protector outlet and wait at least 10 seconds.

    Step 4

    Plug the modem back in and wait 30 seconds until all of the front lights are solid.

    Step 5

    Plug in your router, if applicable, and wait 30 seconds for the router to boot.

    This should solve your issue. If this does not, you should contact your Internet provider.

    Exactly, the triangle represents packet loss showing that the quality of your connection is degraded and not performing at the needed level.  When you play online it is generally a good rule not to download anything.  If possible try to coordinate with friends and family who may live with you so you are not playing online at the same time that someone is doing bandwidth intensive activities like watching netflix or downloading large files since these take up bandwidth needed to process the server data while playing online. 

    Also if possible ensure that you are playing using a wired connection to your router instead of wireless as wired connections are usually much faster than wireless connections (especially if you are on console).

    @EyesfromtheSky Try and factory reset your internet router to see if that fixes this issue.

    • Over the last few days I have been unable to play for more than five minutes due to some unknown cause for a seemingly bad connection.

    I am shown an Orange trangle in the top right -hand corner and I am frozen to the spot, unable to walk in any direction but able to spin around.

    I have never had this problem before and it seems to have happened completely randomly.

    It happens on every server- especially when I am Flying or driving. It only goes away temporarily when I am shot by a Teammate.

    I have tried:

    • Opening ports on my router for Bf3 and Xbox Live
    • Resetting my router ( which is fan cooled and reliable )
    • Resetting my xbox
    • Deleting my BF3 saved profile data.
    • Cleaning my discs
    • Complaining and/or Swearing at my monitor

    I Have no issues on any other games and I have no difficulty playing games while streaming and/or browsing.

    Has anyone else had this problem or know any solutions?
