Figured I'd add my voice to yours.
I've reinstalled punkbuster, didn't help.
Updated punkbuster, didn't help.
Followed all the steps posted elsewhere by a moderator, killed UPNP, opened any port I could find related to punkbuster or BF4, doesn't help.
I'm running windows 8 so I swapped to Windows 7 compatability mode for both punkbuster A and B as well as BF4, didn't help.
Deactivated every program other than origin, the browser to launch battlelog and BF4 itself. Didn't help.
I'm sincerely hoping for some kind of official response (this issue is not even on "known issues" right now!) or I'm going to be forced to demand a refund (and I suspect so will the 4 friends I've convinced to buy the game to play with me).
This is really annoying, when starts to happen, happens all time so I need to stop playing the game, tried everything, I had the same problem with BF 3, X-Box 360 and PC version, now I am using a new PC, in a different modem and network that the one I used to connect, and the same problem happens .....I mean, this is a know issue since BF3, Dice had a lot of time to fix so I have really low hope they will fix after Beta.........
