Error 327 (now 201) still persists

I've downloaded and installed the ~1.5gb patch today and it has made no difference. I still get disconnected roughly every 5 to 10 mins of play. The only difference is that it now shows error code 201.

A couple of things to add:

When trying to play GA, after a fairly substantial load time, I am often added to an empty server. I then typically see over the course of one or two minutes, a handful of player who join, but never enough to start a game. Very strange!

Secondly, I've noticed that I always seem to be able to play the first half of a GA game without issue. If I stay for the second round, the game will freeze every time after anywhere between 2 and 5 minutes from the beginning of the second round with error 201 - lost connection to EA servers.

Where are you playing from?

i was told the opposite! I was told it was a common issue and would be rectified in an update. So after the recent 1.5gb update failed to make any headway, I was bitterly disappointed.
