Description
Almost every time I login to MWO, my little 2Wire 2701HG-B DSL router entirely drops DSL sync. It's not just a PPPoE session drop, as one might expect: losing PPPoE session if the CPU it shares with the firewall were being inundated with states could cause it to drop. This, however, goes a step beyond and causes an actual DSL sync loss.
Repetition Procedure
- Obtain AT&T DSL service
- Use 2Wire 2701HG-B DSL router for transit
- Login to 2Wire interface: http://gateway.2wire.net/xslt?PAGE=B03
- Login to MWO
- Refresh 2Wire interface and observe loss of DSL sync
Has anyone else experienced anything similar with this setup? I can login to Eve Online and various other games without isssue. The only game I've found that triggers this behavior in my dinky 2wire router almost every time I login is MWO.
[edit: NOTE: Not suggesting this is specifically an issue with MWO *or* AT&T DSL w/ 2Wire router, just that the combination is dysfunctional. Like my last marriage.]
