Hello! I have the problem with connection to the bf3 game and i can't solve it . I've done all steps http://answers.ea.com/t5/Battlefield-4/Game-disconnected-you-were-kicked-by-PunkBuster-Stated-reason/m-p/1989915#M69174 but it didn't help. I need your hand with this !!!!!!
Could you please go through this process: http://help.ea.com/en/article/how-to-uo-trace/ and post the results here? Gotta track that packet flow (yo?)
Hey I have the same problem I did what you ask for! Could you check it?

OP that error states that the punkbuster parent server cannot communicate with your local PB client so it kicks you. Many players have remedied their problem with this solution:

I got the RESTRICTION: Service Communication Failure: PnkBstrA.exe message.
I finally fixed mine after reading lots of forums, i did a few of my own things, some probably not needed, and others probably noobish, but in the end mine works!
i did:
1. Open windows firewall
2. click advanced settings( on the left) and then inbound (also left)
3. Find PnkbstrA.exe and PnkbstrB.exe (if you have two of both, its fine)
4. right click on each of them>properties>programs and services
5. make sure that "all programs that meet the spesifications" is checked
6. then go to the "Advanced" tab and check all 3 boxes. Domain, Private and Public.
7. REMEMBER TO DO THIS FOR ALL PnkBstr Files. then save and quit.
8. Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 3 and delete "Pb" folder.
9. go to these 2 links:
http://websec.evenbalance.com/downloader/download.php?file=1
http://www.evenbalance.com/downloads/pbsvc/pbsvc.exe
10. download and install both
11. Run Pbsetup.exe (the first link)
12. add a game (eg. bf3)
13. check for updates.
Have you updated punk buster this way....
Go to Punk Buster site
Download PB then extract files to your desktop then open Punk Buster folder. Click on the PB setup and it will open.
Add your BF3 game to punk buster its at the top of Punk Buster.
Then update punk buster again at the top of Punk Buster.

I thought you did but wanted to be sure. In truth I have no idea if this can help at all but it will rule out other programs making the issue with punk buster so worth a shot just to try and pin point what is going on. So try this and then test the game, good chance it may not help at all but I have seen some crazy things over the years with PC games fix them so this is why I thought of this.
Run a Clean Boot: http://help.ea.com/en/article/how-to-clean-boot-your-pc/
This should ensure that no programs are interfering in the background.
Any solution yet? was playing it good today, all of a sudden kicked and this * happened, * Battlefield ☹️

When that happens first right click and repair BF3 in Origin and try to play again. If that doesn't work do what I said above and install the newest PB from evenbalance.com and manually add BF3. That works for me on every time on BF3\4\ and even hardline.
Game disconnected: you were kicked by Punk Buster. Stated reason: Punk Buster kicked player 'xXvestigesXx' (for 0 minutes) ... No Packet Flow i have both pnkbstr a and b running did the test and uninstalled and reinstalled punk buster and stll get the same thing i don't understand what did i miss http://i.imgur.com/FIVETRd.jpg
