Hello for the past little while, the server is cutting my connection every few minutes. The game gives me the screen about losing conn to the server, however my ship is not left stranded in space like a normal timeout event, and I am able to relog the same sihp immediately. It's almost like the server is kicking me off. I'm not getting any kind of extra message, and all I see is the lost connection. It's happening with different ships on different accounts. Need any info just ask

Question- have you used any jumpdrives even on other accounts?
In what system it happens to you?
I do suspect that it is connected with the JD- because it kicks you exactly after you logged the char and the charge time for MK IV is over-200 seconds.Then you can come back without msg and log instantly.
Second point is that it happens only in some systems.

Omega 7 I see ok then it is not connected or someone was jumping there to get silver.:nyam:

It happened to me again in Leeds, Alberta, Colorado, Pennsylvania, and a couple of others. It seems to happen the most with my mining ships but also happens with my cargo ships.
to me it happens in alsmost every system.
but the highest rate of red lag seems to be in pennsylvania, conn, coronado, alabama and alberta.
No jompdrives ever used;
no hacks / fixes / anything else ever used;
no firewall;
no antivir thing;
and a little difference: i dont get kicked from the server because when i try to reconnect right after the connection lost message, my accound is still logged in. so its more like losing connection to hte server.
but the strange thing is: the connection must still be there, because of the fact that i can still watch people flying around and chatting and stuff. so only my "data sending thing" might be broken. the recieving thing is still intact.
//edit:
that's what i wronte in another thread. just to specify the problem a bit:
Hi there folks.
This situation:
I have absolutely no problems most of the time. but sometimes, when i enter another system (like the last one: alabama) the red lag symbol ( got it via launchpad) appears and a few seconds later i get kicked.
after this, i can connect again a few minutes later (after my ship dissapeared). then, when i use another char od my accound, i got no problems with it. but as soon as i want to use the char i got kicked with, the problem starts again and i get kicked again.
now if you think "well just get out of that system that causes the crash": after connecting with my char i can't do anything, because the "red lag" starts isntantly. i can't use the chat, i can't dock.
But the strangest thing is: i CAN watch people talking and flying around. so the connection still MUST be there.
i already formated my hdd, installed win7 new (but i had the problem with vista too), did a completely new installation of freelancer and discovery... but the problem still exists and continues making my chars from time to time absolutlely useless...
