Potential fix for "unexpected disconnect" error
Hello all,
Been playing since Dec. 6, and on Jan 21 I suddenly started having the unexpected disconnect error. The error happens randomly, it isn't tied to movement or using a portal. When it occurs,there is a massive network ping spike, the game freezes for a second, and then kicks me out to the login screen. I can login immediately, and my maps are still enterable, missing one portal. I am not sure if I lose xp or loot. The error occurs on any server, but I primarily use either Canada East or Washington. As others have reported, during the initial freeze poe2 disconnects the whole pc from the internet briefly. I noticed that my WiFi was the first to reconnect, and then my Ethernet connects a half second later. I disabled my WiFi so only Ethernet is available to the pc, and this stopped me from getting kicked out to the login screen. Now, the game pauses for about 5 seconds, but then reconnects without logging me out. My guess is that the "fighting" for control between the WiFi and Ethernet was causing the logout, at least for me. TLDR: Disable your WiFi, only use Ethernet Last bumped on Jan 23, 2025, 9:26:17 AM
