Felix Krohn Posted February 22, 2018 at 09:08 PM Posted February 22, 2018 at 09:08 PM Hey guys, I found some information concerning this topic, but none of them really helped me out. It started this week, that vPilot disconnects every 2 - 10 minutes, roughly. It just does not match with any other event. I already changed to other servers, with no result. Re-installed vPilot (so I have the latest Version), did not change anything. I thought it may have something to do with my internet connection - but no other program has any problem whatsoever. I won't be kicked from any server in a shooter game, I won't be kicked from a TS server or anything. Because we changed our Internet connection (to a faster one, actually) last week, I thought that there may be connection losses. However I checked my connection with Net Uptime Monitor - it doesn't monitor any connection fail. However it only checks once a second. I wonder if it will bother vPilot if the connection is lost for a millisecond or something. Maybe some of you guys has an idea.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Tyndall 1087023 Posted February 23, 2018 at 05:33 AM Posted February 23, 2018 at 05:33 AM Did changing to a faster internet include a new modem? If so, I wonder if that could be the culprit. I know when I upgraded to a faster connection I had to get a different modem from my provider, although I didn't experience any connection issues when I did.

Felix Krohn Posted February 23, 2018 at 07:41 AM Author Posted February 23, 2018 at 07:41 AM Yes, we got a new router. But we got the new router first, and the first flight with the new router was no problem. It only started after they changed our connection. Btw.: Tried Squawkbox yesterday for a couple of minutes, which seemed to work fine :/ Guess it has more to do with vPilot somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Walsh Posted February 28, 2018 at 03:08 PM Posted February 28, 2018 at 03:08 PM I've had that experience with a slower internet connection (1.5 mpbs down). Although vPilot worked fine on the connection, I experienced a laptop of mine was running windows 10 and wanted to download the updates. This seemed to bottle neck the internet connection and had the disconnect problem. Mark Walsh Vatsim Network Supervisor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Board of Governors Tim Barber Posted March 1, 2018 at 06:01 PM Board of Governors Posted March 1, 2018 at 06:01 PM Does it disconnect you from the network, or do you just lose voice? If you lose voice only, does pushing your PTT resolve the issue momentarily? Tim Barber VATSIM President Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
