Mapserver disconnects

So I was playing a little bit today on my lvl 35 (now 36) Stalker and duo'ing villain tip missions with a lvl 49 Brute. We did one mission and all was fine...he set the next mission which was the "Annihilate Portal Corp Lab" mission.

First attempt to go into the mission and I get a mapserver disconnect message (well technically I didn't get that...just saw CoH was 'not responding' and killed it). Now this happens like once or twice a month where I'm solo'ing or whatever and try to load a mission but CoH stops responding (mapserver disconnect)...I usually kill the process, re-login and all is fine.

So I log back in and jump back into the mission; again, CoH stops responding and I kill CoH again.

I log back in (none of these did any 'verifying files' when logging back in) and told the teammate that if it happens again I wouldn't come back....so I click on the mission door (the door was the helicopter door in the north part of Grandville by the ocean/water.)....sure enough CoH stops responding again....this time I just ctrl+alt+delete and just surf the internet while waiting to see if waiting helps anything.

It doesn't of course and I go back to CoH and now I see the "Mapserver disconnected" message.

Anyone else get this type of issue/bug 1-2x a month like I do? It's usually so random I can't/haven't really /bug'ed it but today was the exception obviously since it happened 3x in a row.

Oh and yes, my teammate was able to go into the mission just fine.

If you're only getting disconnected a couple times a month you're lucky. I would start examining what you've got running in the background or whether your malware program or antivirus might be doing something to your connection because it thinks all the activity is an issue. If you use a torrent program I've found that that thing sucks so much bandwidth that coh can't run properly. I get disconnected sometimes twice per several hour session so twice a month is really good service.

If coh is freezing and it does sound like that to me... look for video card updates or other hardware updates...you might also have a bad modem see if your provider will replace it if it isn't yours. Access point/routers can be another issue, they often have hardware firewalls of their own. I've never had a problem with NAT firewalls on my belkin router but I have had them in the past...some games just do not like NAT turned on inside your router's hardware firewall...and of course make sure your router has the latest and most up to date firmware installed, last time I had serious connection issues the firmware on my router was out of date.
