I am having trouble getting my brand new copy of Battlefield 2 to run online correctly. It worked fine for about an hour. Then Everytime I go into a Decent sized game it loses the connection to the server. The only thing I have not tried is updating Punkbuster. Help PLEASE!

Yeah but it is all the time. If I cant go into the game and play for more then 5 minutes on any map without getting disconnected, then no, I am not going to learn to live with it. Could someone that actually has a clue of what is up help me please?

Hmm. I am not sure if I even have to update PB because it is brand new. Youre right I think, I had to update to version 1.4 to actually play most online games. I'll see if I can update it. Its annoying, waiting 1min 30sec to load the map, then 3 mins later sever disconnect. NOT FUN.

what the hell is up with all these answers...

your problem is that either your firewall or a closed port is prohibiting punkbuster from auto-updating.  first make sure you have the latest patch then go here:

http://www.punkbuster.com/index.php?page=dl-bf2.php

follow the instructions to manually update your punkbuster files, and your problems will disappear.

it's really unfortunate that there aren't any sf servers (still a following in europe, but not in u.s.), because sf has some really fun maps.
