Since the latest update, I've had huge issues with connection quality.
Before the release of Premium and CQC (or whatever it is..), I could connect to pretty much any server, no problem and have almost no issues in-game with ping around 30-50.
Since the update, all the servers in the server list are showing 300+ ping, or not even showing any, apart from the rare few showing 30-50 like before.
Sometimes I join a server it just disconnects me, with "Unable to connect to EA Online" or "Disconnected from Server" messages. Then clicking "retry" just tells me the server cannot be found, then I likely never see the server again.
When I eventually get into a game, no matter what ping it showed in the server list, whether it's 30 or 700, I have one of the following:
- Constantly high ping, 300-500+.
- Fluctuating mid-high ping, 50 for a few seconds, then 300 for about 30 seconds, then back down to 50 again.
This is every server I join. Regardless of location, I've tried UK, US, Russian, German, Japanese etc. servers, same result.
It's not my PC or Internet connection. No other games do it, I get constant 30-40 ping on CS:S and other games.
I'm not downloading anything, I've even disconnected everything else in my house from my router and tried at all times (peak and non-peak), which made no difference.
I've re-installed Origin and BF3, which made no difference either. Restarted the router countless times and restarted my computer even more.
With EA Support I got into a continuous loop of "Have you tried re-installing Origin and BF3", "Yes, it made no difference", "Try it again.".
No help found on the forums either, all the moderators just say they'll let the developers know, even in 6 month old threads, so obviously they've doing nothing about it.
Does anyone have this problem, or even better, a solution to it!?
Any help at all would be amazing.
