Unable to Connect to Server After Switching ISP


Question

Posted

So, for the last 2 weeks, after switching our ISP, I am no longer able to connect to the public server. I can play on literally any other server except that one. Even the Private. I have tried refreshing 100 times, joining off of a Steam friend, and joining manually in console. Nothing seems to work. If I do randomly get in, I have terrible lag that I do not experience in other servers. Is there anyone that can assist? :'(

Race,

 

Since you switched ISP's recently, we will need to go through a few steps to rule other things out.

 

Command Prompt, type "ping  208.167.243.207", no need to include the port. Let's see how it pings the server.

 

After that, type the below in Command Prompt:

 

  • Right-click Command Prompt and select Run as administrator.
  • Type ipconfig /release in the command prompt and press the Enter/Return key on your keyboard.
  • Wait a few seconds for a reply that the IP address has been released.
  • Type ipconfig /renew in the command prompt and press the Enter/Return key on your keyboard.
  • Wait a few seconds for a reply that the IP address has been re-established.
  • Type ipconfig /flushdns in the command prompt and press the Enter/Return key on your keyboard.
  • Close the command prompt and attempt to make a connection to the 1st MRB DODs sever.

That worked! I was able to connect and played for 5 mins with no lag spikes or anything. I really appreciate your help Cpl. Wright, especially while you are in recovery. <3 <3

 

EDIT: Just now while playing on Donner, I was getting severe lag, with no change in ping (60's-70's)

Disconnected from the server and attempted to reconnect. Got the same message as my original post. Going to try to follow these steps again to correct it.

Race,

 

Lets setup a date and time that works for you to troubleshoot. There will be a few more steps to take and it's easier if I can see the output data, instead of me telling you what to do. Let me know what works for you, as I have a lot of free time during my PT recovery.
