Extreme packet loss

Gaijin fix your servers!! I’ve had extreme packet loss for 2 weeks already on ALL SERVERS (RUS, EU and NA) and I’ve been crew locked for up to 10 minutes because my plane gets dragged to the ground!!

EDIT: the I disabled the anticheat and seems like it has been partially normal, it’s now a 50/50 on whether it’s gonna be a good game or have a 56% packet loss spike, wherever there’s PL spikes I alt + f4 and return to battle, usually fixes it

By the way my connection is not bad, there is not heavy bandwidth usage and the PL spikes happen midgame only, the game starts normal and then the spike happens. I play on wifi and cant cable play

Wifi isn’t really reliable to play competitive games, Given your ping/pl is high that’s the reason why most likely. It’s nothing to do with the servers.

So I can’t play the game? The problems didnt happen until like 14 days ago

It’s actually a very flawed design wifi.

You can get it too strong a signal from being too close to the router that it’ll make trouble.

If you can, totally slap a cable in to the router.

Also if it’s a laptop, plug it into the power. Powersaving throttles/chokes the GPU/CPU/Wireless wo save battery.

I play with it plugged and nothing

You’ll have to broaden that response for me.

Good stuff, power saving is a true problem that many don’t notice.

Ethernet cable though, or tune the wireless a bit is a good idea. Check the channel the wifi is on, the setup of the router, compared to the laptop with respect to walls (Brick walls kill wifi, as does there being appliances and such around the same area).
