I keep getting dropped...Follow

I rarely lose connections...

But over the past week, I've been dropped about 2 times per day. Every time, I'm doing some task and then I notice that the world isn't responding. Either I'm no longer able to cast or the mob/NPC is no longer moving....

Then I get a "You have been disconnected" message and the whole program drops.

I can't log back in until I close WoW.

Everytime I notice a NEW loading screen - (Meaning I'm Downloading in "Green" and it's always a TINY amount left to DL)


I wouldn't complain, but I've changed my main from a Tankadin to a Mage and when you wait for 35 minutes to Queue up.... Then drop due to some minor patch - it's a huge pain in the ***. (Mind you, I'm not ******** about the 40+ minute Queue, just the Dropping that causes me to re-Queue.)

You should go to the tech support forum and report your issues. Be sure to tell them which ISP you are using.

It happens to me sometimes too but I guess I'm usually not too worried about it. Usually it's just a hiccup in my connection and I can usually get back on just fine. Occasionally I haven't been able to sign right back on where the bar loads and then disconnects me again, but as stated you just have to close wow and reopen it.

I guess it's just not as big of an inconvenience to me.

I think it has to do with those patches they apply.

Whenever I drop, I must close WoW's loading screen.

Occasionally it will take 3-4 attempts to reload the login. (It often opens with an error message)

When I get it open - There's always a new loading (Downloading) screen.

It's always green, but it's new....

Mine never stops saying "applying non critical updates" or whatever it says.

I've only dropped a few times, didn't have any issues getting back on. But the lag...there are times when the game just stutters for a minute.

Right now, I'm trying to just get into the launcher for whatever updates there are, and I get the boxed message "Launcher cannot obtain patching information. Check my internet configuration." wtf.. Nothing has changed since I logged out last nite. I have a day off, figures...
