BF6 Crashes Home Internet

Sounds stupid, but I posted this on Reddit, and have had a few comments since with people experiencing the same thing, where the game would crash on their PS5 or PC, and when that happened, it would knock out the internet for their homes.

In short, I have a Windows 11 Pro PC, RTX3090, ProArt Z490, 64GB RAM, 850W PSU - Ethernetted into a switch

Mac Studio M4 Max - Ethernetted into a switch

If the game crashed on the PC, and I leave it for a minute or two, the internet goes down.

I know it sounds stupid and ridiculous, but I am able to replicate this every time it crashes, and as I said, on Reddit, it seems that a few other people have experienced this same issue.

Can't upload video so here's link to Reddit post which includes video: REDDIT INTERNET BUG

  1. I've tried all fixes for PC crashing, nothing has worked, defo an issue on EA's side
  2. Wtf is causing the internet to drop out?

  • same issue. I've it with other battlefields too. Typically have to reset my network adapter, but this could easily happen 3 times within an hour. super frustrating

  • Bump.

    Game is hard crashing every single game that loads up. Tried every fix. Multiple people coming forward saying game knocks out their home network too.

    This is a big deal and someone from EA should address they've seen this.

    Same here, contacted my Internet provider and got a new router and it's still knocking out my Internet connection. Since the update it seems to be better but still happens once an hr.

  • Same here - luckilly just happends occasionally (so far 2 times in round about 15 game starts)

  • Guess I found something: Do you use a vpn tool even though you are not active in vpn (so vpn program ist just running)?

    When I close my vpn tool (UTunnelVPN) the error dont come up :-)
