Punkbuster kick for no packet flow

Welcome.

A few days ago I bought Battlefield 3 Premium Edition. To this day I can not play, because after entering the server, a minute later, punkbuster is kicking me with the message "no packet flow". I reinstalled / updated Punkbuster, repaired the game through Origin and it is still the same problem. The strange thing is that I can play Battlefield 4 and this problem does not occur. In contrast, Battlefield 3 is absolutely unplayable.

Can someone help me?
Regards

    Can you please provide us some details about your PC and internet connection and try to disable your firewall/antivirus software as well as other bandwidth using application?

     

    Cheers

  • - Windows 7 (64-bit)

    - GeForce GTX 770

    - Intel Core i5 4670K

    - 8 GB RAM

    - No firewall and antivirus running

    - Wireless Internet connection 2 Mbps

    Like I said I have no problems playing BF4 only with BF3. 

  • In addition to what Basti recommended please go into your firewall and router and whitelist both Punkbuster A and B since the no packet flow states that the parent PB server isn't communicating with your local PB client.
  • Punkbuster A and B were already whitlisted in my firewall. I even truned off firewall and "no packet flow" problem still occur. Why I can't play BF3 and I don't have problems with BF4 - same punkbuster.
