Re: Battlefield 3 - Your connection to the server timed out

Hello,

I recommend to check thishttps://help.ea.com/article/connection-to-the-server-timed-out-error And run Punkbuster as admin:

1. Open Windows Explorer and browse to c:\windows\system32
64 bit, you need to browse to c:\windows\syswow64
2. Scroll down and find PnkBstrA.exe - PnkBstrB.exe,
3. Right-click PnkBstrA.exe - PnkBstrB.exe and choose Properties.
4. Click Compatiblity tab.
5. Click button Change settings for all users
6. Click Run this program as an administrator
7. Click OK
8. Restart your PC

Regards, Libever

Hello, thanks for the answer!

I already did that, and it worked the other day.
The error I was reporting was already fixed with a program called : Smart Port Forwarding.
But, if you may help me another time, I'm getting disconnected by PB and I don't know the reason for it.
I get this error everything : " ERROR
Game disconnected: you were kicked by PunkBuster. Stated reason: PunkBuster kicked player 'Noctis112' (for 0 minutes) ... RESTRICTION: Corrupted File/Memory [98080696] "

Best regards!
