Connection

[MikeG]

Ive messed with ports and pb and everything but I still get choppy game play and lag and connection interuptions with a pretty damn good game rig I have. My guess is that it is the wireless connection. is that right? what can I do?

specs?
what kind of router is it?

I have exact same probs mate on my wireless, i get "there is a problem with your connection" every 2 mins. My router is a bt voyager 2091, i have disabled firewalls, opened ports etc but it still doesnt fix it, any one got any suggestions?

It is very likely that someone near your router (might be a neighbor) is using a 2.4ghz phone. I know my router wil reboot if the wireless gets interfered with, but it definitely doesn't happen every 2 minutes.
I would try to disable the wireless aspect if you can and use a hard line, and see if it still has connection issues.

To Sir. -=AJ06=-, it might just be a crap router because I haven't heard of that brand before :(

Ive got some kind of Linksys router, anyways I reinstalled and uninstalled about 3 or 4 times and now I dont seem to get booted but I have crap gameplay. My fps is around 80 at all times and my ping is within 100 but I get extremely choppy gameplay on all game settings. Any ideas?

Any ideas? a very common symptom of not updating punkbuster. http://websec.evenbalance.com/downloads/windows/pbsetup.exe
Download it, run it, and click on "Update" once you have added BF2 to the game list

Ill try it, mucho appreciated.

got the pb updated, but it still is REALLY choppy, especially when I sprint. My fps hasnt gone below 60 and my ping is still fine. Anything else I can do to help with performance.

Didnt work

Didnt Work Oh Noooes

Dont think it is your wireless connection, although it sounds like a problem a wireless connection could have.

After the last wonder of a patch......

I can not find any servers in the game browser (well, OK a Christain Gaming Server was found once) and the Favorites that I have are plagued with the "there is a problem with your connection" at times, one every 15-30 seconds.....pathetic.

Oh, and I am not on a wirleess connection and have never had any connection problems before.

No, me thinks it is the patch....that patched the patch, patching the patch that patched the other patch.

Thanks DICE, another fine job.
