Random disconnects, what is your OS?

[Deleted]

Only reason I might disconnect is my router going rogue on me.
Has nothing to do with the OS.

Basically your router vanishes, reappears behind you and stunlocks you to dead?


(Vista; no dc's here)

Windows XP Pro SP3 with a cable modem and router, and my sister gets random disconnects on her account but not on mine. It has happened with and without add-ons. The fps will randomly drop on some of her characters but never on others.

Personally, I think it has something to do with the computer's nVidia graphics card (was fairly high-end 1yr ago). Sometimes the game will hang up like its going to disconnect, but then recovers - if one can call the WoW UI looking like went on an acid trip. >.> Then I have to close and restart WoW to fix that issue. (I can upload screenshots if someone requests it. The effect is kinda cool, if also headache-inducing.) I've looked at the blue posts in regards to possible drivers issues, but that hasn't helped. I think it may be time to ask a guild paladin to cast Exorcism on the darned thing - it seems to hate Alayea.

Oh well. At least the D/Cs don't usually happen when she's in a raid.

Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. No random d/c.

And i believe this should be under Computer-thread instead.

Had a few dc's, but not enough to worry about.

Thanks for all the answers guys. Seems like Windows XP has the highest percentage of disconnects, now the next question would be whether or not the users are up to date with the windows updates.

Hmmh...
