I have no problems really should of checked forums there have been issues with certain ISPs and certain Connection types IE wireless problems but there was fix's also you will find ISPs usually help too if you have issues keeping a connection :P
The ISP works great for all games but WW2online sadly. its just there i get DCed. 3 years of wow, DCed maybe a total of 2-3 times. That i did in a evning of WW2. Tried to track the issue from my side, but could find no errors.
You can have a bad memory dimm and have this problem. Even if it runs WoW etc if there is even 1 bad byte on a dimm it will drop you out of ww2ol. D/l and run Memtest86.exe and let it check your memory for errors.
The thing that helped me with my connection problems was getting rid of the QOS service from my network connection. As far as I know it's pretty much pointless anyway and I very rarely get disconnected from the game now. There's a post by one of the Rats about it on the support forum:

Will check it out, see if it perhaps makes it worth trying ww2 again.
I used to have a bat file called services.bat would close down all none needed windows backgrounds services so that games had more FPS and connections ran better. Worked a charm on my old system since upgrade not needed it so not sure where it is. Will have to look for it maybe if you want this file.
Maybe this will close things using the connection causing it to drop out never know I guess.
On WW2 online official forum, in the support Windows section, I see someone complaint about disconnected, and Rat replied about some memory issue on player's local computer.
Also, there is a setting in WW2 that you can see how many player that you see at the same time. I think 128 is the MAX. Someone has same DC problem and solved by lower that MAX number of player that he can see. You know if your connection can't support up 128 that much signal traffic, lower it might be an opinion (who the hell would ever able to actually see and interact with 128 targets ?! ).
Check out official forum of WW2 online http://forums.battlegroundeurope/index.php? ( <-- need to copy the question mark with the link ), and then scroll down to Support for Windows forum or linux or whatever to see if anyone previous posts can help you or post one up and ask for help ( need to have active account ).
Just cancel the subscription is too pity, this is the best War Sim game that I have ever seen...
I been looking into the suggestions here, and nothing that improves my situation sadly. Perhaps I will try the game in a few months again to see if the issues have been resolved.
Hope you guys have fun, and keep thoose AA guns blazing!
Did u turn on NetCode2 in the settings? ended all my CTDs and CTHL issues
Yeah I live in Australia and use to lag heaps, I just turned netcode2 on and I never got logged of again for connection lost issues.
