Hello,
I have some ideeas.

I suggest that you should download and run this one and this one. Run both of them and restart the PC after the instalation is completed.
Then try to join a server and see if it helps.
In case this is not working, I suggest to install Smart Port Forwarding and do the following settngs:
open the software - a blank white windows should pop up with 5 columns (Protocol - Listen On - Forward To - Type - Running)
Right click on the Blank white window and a pop up should be present saying Add new Forwarding Port.
click on the new option and you should see a new window.
There are 2 selectable options : TCP and UDP.
select TCP and near it should be present a case labeled "Listen Port"
Inside that case type 3659 and click OK
Now you should see that the blank white window has a new set of options in it.
next repeat the first step (Right click-Add new Forwarding port)
Now Select UDP and type 3659 in the Listen Port Case.
Select OK.
Close or minimize the software and try to join a server without restarting your pc (there is no need for that.)
Thank you and keep me posted about this!

  Hey,
  Did you tried everything I suggested?
  After you installed the redist 2012 and 2013 did you performed a restart?
  Also, try to uninstall and reinstall the battlelog plugin, disable your firewall or at least set Battlefield 3 and Origin as an exception.
  If this are not workning try this:
  in cmd (Windows Search -> CMD ) type these commands one after another (watch out for he space between letters, because you need it)
  ipconfig /flushdns
  ipconfig /registerdns
  ipconfig /release
  ipconfig /renew
  netsh winsock
  After each command press enter and so on then after you managed to execute this commands, please restart your PC and try to join a server!
  Thanks!
