Posted August 20, 200817 yr Does anyone have any ideas for this problam? I keep gettting disconnected from the server at least onec or twice a round in bf2. it dont matter what server im in at the time and it only happens on bf2. no probloms with any other games so fare. It just says.."there is a problam with your connetion" and then it tells me i have been desconnected form the server. Then i just rejoin the server and go back to playing until next time. It really sucks because if it happens twards the end of a round i lose all the points for that round if i dont get back in before the round ends.
August 20, 200817 yr It seems there is a problem with your net connection, losing the signal at times. Make sure all your cables are properly connected and check your modem as well. You coud also check your internet speed connection online to see if it matches the connection specifications that your provider should provide you with.
August 20, 200817 yr Check your pb reinstall the services and make sure you are up to date. Use the link on the homepage to get this info.
August 20, 200817 yr Author ok...I dont think it is the net connection. Because it only happens on bf2. And also I have the in game setting to cable. But what is this pb?
August 20, 200817 yr PB short for Punkbuster. This is the anti-cheat program for BF2. This program is so much garbage unfortunately you have to have it. Since you say its only BF2 this inclines me to believe that it is pb. On the homepage of the site in middle right hand side of th page there are 2 pb icons. Click the second one and install the pbsvc. Also make sure your pb is up to date. Do this by clicking the pbsetup link. Install the program and run it. Most connection/lag/CTD problems have been caused by PB. Since the pb services A and B monitor your computer if one of them quits sending info to Evenbalance (creators of pb) then you lose your connection to the BF2 master server which therfore does one of two things. It may just cause a disconnection or it may cause a crash to desktop. In rare cases it can cause a temporary lock up of the system. Let it be known though BF2 does have a memory leak which will also cause the same problems. If it was purely internet you would lose ur connection to vent as well which you didn't last night. Reinstall pbsvc then install and run pbsetup. After that run BF2 if it still happens we may have to go deeper.
August 20, 200817 yr Author Ok...great Ding. thanks..I will do that when I get home tonight. One question though if PB disconnects you dont you get a explanation like "You have been disconnected by Punk Buster for the fallowing resons" Bla Bla?
August 20, 200817 yr Not always. I've been kicked from a server by PB and it will say nothing. If we didn't need pb so much i wouldn't be using it. Once you get home find me on vent and i will help ya out.
