    Dice games BF2 & 2142 kill my internet connection.

    I used to play BF2. Along the way they released a patch that caused me to lose my entire internet connection after playing a while. I reinstalled my NIC drivers, BF2 several times, reinstalled windows, even tried a different motherboard with onboard NIC. Now, I purchased and installed BF2142 and I have the same problem.

    This is the sequence of events when playing BF2 or 2142.

    1.) I Logon and join a server.
    2.) I play for maybe a hour, ushualy a little less than a hour.
    3.) In the middle of playing, I get a error "Connection to server lost" or something.
    4.) I close BF2/2142 and open my browser, no response.
    5.) I try to ping my router, nothing.
    6.) I reboot my computer and everything works again.

    I play many games and this only happens with BF2 and BF2142.

    AMD64 4000+ (939)
    MSI motherboard
    ATI X1900XTX
    Realtek RTL8139/810x NIC
    2X WD 74G in RAID0
    2G DDR *checked with mfgr mem checker*

    If someone knows a fix for this please let me know.

    Have you setup a static IP address from your PC to your router?
    Very simple but very effective.

    And have you opened the needed ports in your router?
