    Quick update - issue has been fixed.  The EA helpdesk, although very responsive, were not that helpful - they just pointed met to all the things I had tried already.

    Then contacted my ISP again who suggested trying a port forwarding tool.

    Downloaded a tool called 'smart port forwarding' from a website called softpedia.com.  Created 1 rule for port UDP 3659 (picked that one as a lot of posts seem to mention problems with 3659). Before launching BF1 i run the tool and activate the 3659 forwarding rule and voila, I've had no more server disconnected errors since.

    I did have manually created forwarding rules for port 3659 in my router and also in windows 10 - not sure why those didn't work and it does work when using that tool.

    Anyways, I've rolled back all the other settings I tried previously, and the port forwarding tool works fine still, so I'd recommend giving it a go for those who've had the same server disconnected issue.

    Cheers.

I didn´t know that, never needed one. So that´s no solution. ☹️

Sorry again, I still hope this is just some sort of technical issue that can be fixed 🤞
