5XT Posted June 4, 2022 Report Share Posted June 4, 2022 Hello. I'm on Macbook. Yesterday i started to disconnect every 5-15 minutes, though my connection is good (everything has been checked and please don't write stupid comments that i should change my provider) then i have to force quit the game and when i come back in, i can't join the lobby for another 2-3 minutes, it keeps loading and i have to quit game again and enter it again couple times till i can join the lobby. I've been reinstalling the game but it didn't help. Thought it will maybe somehow get better over the night, but today is still the same. Completely unplayable. It happened once in past, and the other day everything was fine, but now it continues for 2 days. Any suggestions FROM MAC USERS? Please don't tell me to delete some weird user.cfg files that aren't even there on Mac, because Mac programs are built differently i guess, and i can't find that file anywhere. If you have Windows then it's a big chance u will not help and please don't spend our time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Langbart Posted June 4, 2022 Report Share Posted June 4, 2022 I had a similar problem and when I switched my router to WPA2, the problem no longer occurred. Ref: MacBook Pro drops WiFi connection exactly every 10 minutes for 4 seconds (5/Nov/20) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5XT Posted June 4, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2022 I was playing for 6 months and everything was good, except 2 days as i described in my post. Also it isn't the same problem as described in other post you are sending. Connection is not dropping for 4 seconds, and not exactly every 10 minutes. It is dropping every 5-15 minutes, it depends, could be even dropping at 2nd minute. And not for 4 seconds, but for all 20 till i get disconnected and then can't join the lobby for another 3 minutes.

I managed to do it so it depends. Are you using the default version or the M1 version of the game ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
