Adrian Obediente Posted June 28, 2020 at 01:49 PM Posted June 28, 2020 at 01:49 PM (edited) Sim: FSX Vatsim client: Vpilot Server: Singapore (it has the lowest ping for me around 30 to 40) Ever since i joined Vatsim, i never had a smooth flight due to network and voice server disconnecting. When i start a flight, everything's fine up until departure, cruise and mostly, approach. during cruise my Vpilot disconnects like once or twice which is fine. But during approach it keeps on disconnecting like every 2 minutes. and when it automatically connects, all transmissions comes in at once, its just pure noise. And when someone transmits, its very choppy and i'm choppy for them too. Only 40% of the flight that they can hear me properly. I tried changing server (USA EAST) even though its far for me, but still same results. My internet is great and I have no problems with other things (like watching movies, downloading etc..) Its just my Vatsim experience isn't that great due to disconnecting issues. What can i do? Should I change anything in Vpilot or the settings on my PC itself? Thank you any answer would be greatly appreciated! Edited June 28, 2020 at 01:50 PM by Adrian Obediente Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mats Edvin Aaro Posted June 28, 2020 at 04:24 PM Posted June 28, 2020 at 04:24 PM This smells like a port timeout problem.. Ensure you've forwarded UDP port 3290 in your router, for routers that close the port after a timeout. (If you're not sure if yours does or not, it doesn't hurt to set up the forwarding for routers that don't have an inactivity timeout). Some Windows 10 users are finding that the Windows 10 Firewall is the culprit. If port forwarding alone doesn't solve the issue, try the following in Win10: Windows Settings > Network and Internet > Windows Firewall > Allow an App Through Firewall > (Admin Icon) Change Settings > scroll down to vpilot.exe > ensure both Private and Public are checked.

Ross Carlson Posted June 28, 2020 at 06:28 PM Posted June 28, 2020 at 06:28 PM Port forwarding for 3290 is no longer needed, that was for the old voice system. (Yes, the vPilot docs need to be updated in this regard.) The AFV devs would have to chime in with the official word, but I don't believe any port forwarding is necessary with the new voice system.

Just to save you some troubleshooting -- the voice server is *its own* server. So changing FSD servers (USA-EAST, UK-1, etcetera) will have no effect on your voice connection. Cheers, -R.

Don Whyte Posted July 26, 2020 at 07:48 PM Posted July 26, 2020 at 07:48 PM I've had the same problem since updating hardware (new motherboard, processor, memory, hard drive) on my computer. Vpilot v2.5.2 randomly disconnects from voice server and reconnects a second later. Same message as shown above in Adrian's post. I tried to add port 3290 to my Cisco router and to McAfee firewall but the problem continues. My system specs: Win 10 Home V2004 build 19041.388 Asus TUF Gaming X570 Plus Wifi motherboard (connected via ethernet not wifi) AMD Ryzen 7 3800X processor 32G memory M600 1 TB SSD Nvidia GTX670 and AMD Radeon HD6850 video cards. Have updated Windows, BIOS, motherboard drivers, video card drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Parry Posted August 1, 2020 at 07:04 PM Posted August 1, 2020 at 07:04 PM I knew I should've checked the vPilot forum first. I'm having a similar issue, started about two days ago.

Richard Watson Posted April 16, 2021 at 08:56 PM Posted April 16, 2021 at 08:56 PM I'm having a similar recurring problem with the voice server. However, in my case it DOES NOT automatically try to reconnect. My error looks like this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
