So this never happened until the new patch. When I'm not playing the game, my internet is fine, but when I first login, my internet goes down. Then I log back in, and everything loads. When I join a match, around 5-10mins in, the internet crashes, and it takes me to the login screen with "network error occurred" I've seen other posts about this happening but I'm just wondering if anyone has found a solution to this

I want to play but I'm scared it will boot me and I would hate to do that to my team mates

If what you are talking about its not the internet its the game and chat app. I have had it multiple times since 2 patches ago and yet my netflix runs fine next to me when it happens!

I have been getting this too and it has been driving me mad. Ive been trying to track down issue with my network card. As you say you log into the client and your network goes down. restart or sleep and awake will fix it, only for it to go down again on log in again. Other days it would stay up for ages.Also I should point out that this has happened without me loading mwo, but far more often when I do.

Are you using a Realtek network card? The latest fix im trying is coutesy of a guy on youtube and has so far worked so give it a go.

Right click your network card in Device Manager and select properties
Choose the power management tab
Untick the 'Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power' option.

That's it, hope it helps. Ive only been running with this option this evening but so far, all good.
