Cannot connect to EA server during a MP game

Has anyone else experienced a problem where you are a playing a multiplayer game (of Mass Effect 3 on the Xbox 360), and everything seems fine (i.e. no pauses, lag, etc...) and then for no reason, the game stops and says that it cannot connect to the EA server and you are booted to the game's main menu (where multiplayer is an option)? This rarely happens in the past, but it happened to me 3 times today. Note: nothing else was actively using my network. I was only actively using my Xbox 360. Thanks, rb8888
  • This happens quite often on PC also, especially in wave ten or eleven of a solo match! I have been told it comes down to the ping rate of your internet connection, but nothing I've tried makes any difference. However, it seldom happens late at night when less folls are on line. Do you have a wireless connection for your x-box? If so a wired router might fix the issue.
