I have been having issues with my connection while playing WoW pretty consistently. They happen about every 30 minutes or 1 hour. It doesn’t happen on any other time interval.
These are the things I’ve tried:
- I contacted my ISP and they say there is no issue on their end.
- I asked my ISP to see if there was a firmware update that was needed.
- I flushed my DNS.
- I tried wireless.
- I tried plugging directly into the modem.
- I reset the router.
- I restart the router.
- I checked my PC for all updates including bios updates.
- I checked my signal levels and they are all within the recommended range.
- I contacted my ISP again and had them reprovision my modem.
- I tried lowering the firewall settings and that didn’t fix anything.
- I do not have a separate firewall connected to the G54 gateway.
When I get my disconnects, I always have the following notice in my firewall logs:
firewall: Reloading firewall due to ifupdate of wan (eth4)
I know its not my computer because I connect to my neighbors wifi and I had no issues. They obtained their modem directly from the ISP. We use the same ISP. I could always just switch to a gateway from my ISP, but I would prefer not to because my G54 is not even a year old and it was very expensive.
