FAF Client and Game dropping connection in the last week?

LegendOfTheStars

FAF all of a sudden (last 7-10 days) is connecting then dropping its connection. This means the list of games randomly disappears or worse when joining a ladder match or team game the game fails to launch and I get a 'strike' warning.

Any ideas?

Has any of the connection code changed recently.

I am based in Australia

Checking the logs there are a few errors but not sure they are related.game_18002665.log

FAF disconnects show on right of this screen....

Jip

The logs you share are of the game - those do not relate to issues of the client. Best to share the logs of the client and the ICE adapter logs.

Looking at your logs anyway - there are no warnings or errors related to connectivity.

@jip Just found the "Preferred Coturns for ICE" in Settings so have set to Australia to see if that helps

Ice log with errors from today attached.

Same issue again today....Australia set as preference for ICE.

First game of the day...Violation, dismiss it and game cancelled message behind it and then FAF Client disconnects and reconnects...sequence from this one game shown below....

My son is getting similar issues on his PC. I have tried rebooting NBN, router, etc, no joy....

UPDATE: Someone suggested changing the ICE adaptor preference from Australia to Germany....so far this has FIXED the problem.

So it appears Australians shouldn't connect to the Australian ICE adaptor....go figure....
