What happens is whenever I am partway through a mission, or am about to finish it, I will disconnect and lose all the experience and coins earned. This is very frustrating, and needs to be fixed.
So far I have only been able to finish 2 or 3 missions to the end without disconnecting.
The expeience and coins earned up to where you lose connection need to be awarded.

Read this post! It explains my problem even more indepth and in a nicer way than I did.

Thought I'd give my own experience here in detail.
I connect to the EA servers fine, I have little if any lag or other issues as a host or simply as a member of a game. Without fail, I disconnect after approx 20 minutes in nearly every multiplayer game. It has pretty much ruined the game for me as it's nearly impossible to get any cash. I have an N7 rating of 22 despite having played for many, many hours, and in that time I've probably made 30k credits combined.
Now, I've seen this issue discussed on the EA forums and here, and the advice (if any response is given at all) is nearly uniformly terrible, so just to be clear:
1. I am not disconnecting from the internet, I have a wired DSL connection, I have no lag, when I see the 'communicating' icon in the corner, I immediately check. I have had no connection issues, I can tab into origin and use the web browser quite fine, so it isn't even a disconnect with Origin. I have played The Old Republic for hours at a time without the slightest hint of lag or disconnect.
2. I have tried the incredibly obvious solutions such as 'reinstalling Origin' etc
3. I am 99.99% sure this is a time issue. It always happens after a set amount of time in game, I can't find any reason to think I would have a connection issue EVERY TIME at the same moment, so it clearly seems to come from Origin, or the EA servers.
So, I'm pretty much at my wits end. I've bought essentially every Bioware game to ever be released, and never had any serious issues like this, but as great as the multiplayer is it's essentially unplayable. If I play with my friends we can clear Bronze in time before I drop, but in public games or silver and gold I'm inevitably doomed to losing all of the credits, and the XP if I can't reconnect in time.
I realize this issue seems to be effecting a relatively small number of players, and thus is probably not a high priority, but simply hearing that it was being looked into, or being given a solution that might possibly help, rather than getting insulting advice like "make sure you have an active internet connection" (and yes, this seems to be the most common suggestion from any support person) would mean a lot.

UPDATE - Page 4 a few posts from the very bottom
NOTE: This is not a catch-all solution. It has worked for a few people, so I feel it is worth mentioning.. Basically you want to disable to UPnP service on your computer and see if it fixes it. If you're lucky it might.. otherwise you will be stuck with me in dc land.

You go to your start menu and type in the search box, services.msc and press enter. A list of services should come up. Scroll down this list and find UPnP from it. Next, either double-click or right click on it and choose properties.
From the drop-down menu there, choose disable and then click ok. I'm not sure if it does, but if it asks you to restart your computer after this, do that, and then give the MP a go.

Retour en haut
. And... that really sucks for people losing their micro-transaction purchases. I hope they can get them refunded.
