I was able to fix the issue by using a VPN to tunnel to connection to an endpoint that routes to Cryptic using a different path. This is, obviously, not a permanent solution.
everything is fine till ya get to the Cogent Communications Washington DC point 154.54.4x.TRIBBLE

So substitute the 'pathping' command for the 'tracert' command, and see if you're suffering from packet drop issues on your connection... as 'Trace Route' won't show packet drop...

I've been having diconnect issues ever since the winter games patch, S8 not so bad but as of about 4-5 days ago the game has become unplayable. I haven't been able to play the game longer than 5 minutues and thats on a good login. Most of the time its just stuck on a screen that says trying to connect to login server and like everyone else here ive spent a ton of money and I'm highly pissed. Cryptic needs to get there servers fixed. Im gonna stop here if I go on any further i might say something ill regret later im starting to get really pissed. I also read some other posts about internet providers mine is Time warner.
...talking to players is like being a mall Santa. Everyone immediately wants to tell you all of the things they want, and you are absolutely powerless to deliver 99% of them.
I feel like every reply I get about not being able to connect to the game is trying to steer me clear of the Real problem here. Im being told it may be my internet provider, it may be the ppl inbetween. But I had a wise old man tell me once to always consider the source. Heres the facts, I played the game for 6 months straight with the same internet provider and i had no problems. I have also in the past few days tryied many other games and they all work fine. The problem started after the patch last week and that my friends is the Enemy. Thats where the problem originated and thats where it needs to be fixed. So how do we get Cryptic to actually look into it and not just sit back and say over and over, there not at fault, lets say by facts thier not to blame 1 in a million but I still wanted them to look into it. How would that happen. Should i just throw my hands up and say F?!@#-it or what?? anyone really know??
According to my ping & tracert, the issue is with Cogent & the latency on their end is bad so unless Cryptic complains then nothing will happen & we'll just have to wait until the problem(s) are fixed. Cryptic folks should be receiving alerts but who knows.
Hey Cryptic personnel! Do something like call Cogent, submit trouble tickets, etc!

Now normally, 180ms would be the upper level of acceptable latency, assuming that there was no packet drop occurring... The next question is, do you have a packet drop issue on your connection??? substitute the 'pathping' command for the 'tracert' command, and post the results, as that would provide much more solid evidence for Cryptic/PWE to work with...
Ah yes, the "We looked, and it's all at your end guys cause our servers rock" thread. Thing is, while I'm watching "Server Not Responding" and waiting for what I know comes next, the "wonderful" Zone chat keeps right on chugging.
Maybe we could get them to run the game servers on the chat hardware that seems to be unstoppable, and run the Zone chat I wouldn't miss on the current "hit-or-miss" game hardware?
I haven't been able to play STO for more than 20 minutes at a time (actually more like 2-10 minutes at a time before I get disconnected tome the game server).
Sure, I got the random disconnect in the past but I've never had THIS much trouble playing the game. I've triple checked everything. It's not a connection problem on my end. Something got messed up on Cryptic's side after the last patch.
It's as if Cryptic's server can't handle all the daily traffic generated by the Winter event free ship giveaway so random player just get disconnected whenever the server reaches capacity.
:mad::mad::mad:
In the immortal words of Captain Sisko: "It may not be what you believe, but that doesn't make it wrong."
Don't believe the lies in this forum. I am NOT an ARC user. I play STO on Steam or not at all.
I'm a player with lots of alts so changing characters is really special right now.
I get disconnected logging in, changing maps, and at random intervals just playing.
I did tracerts, dns flush, speed tests etc. per instructions on these forums, but you know...
I've been here before. The problems coincide with patches every time they pop up. Whatever patch got us ready for winter also initiated the crashing.
There have been three or four memorable times in STO's lifetime where I've had issues and they always correspond with a patch and are resolved eventually with another patch. I quit playing for a year and came back for f2p and was like wow, things work now! I've been here mostly ever since. I was having a pretty good run this past year but I guess I was due for this?
I was just happy a new character I made only got booted once during Mirror Invasion hour this morning, that was nice. I am running the winter race on ten characters and am crashing at least once each. Two d/c'd mid-race. The races aren't taking long but the crashing means I pretty much just want to log off after I get the photos.
I'm also getting disconnected quite a bit when changing maps / toons / etc.. hope they actually fix it cause it's getting ridiculous.
edit: since this post I've had no less than 5 'server not responding' errors and disconnections. This is making the game almost unplayable especially with multiple toons.
Another possibility that I ran into with another game that could be at play is if Cryptic changed the way data is handled with the latest patch. At one point said other game changed it's method for handling data to increase efficiency and ran afoul of one of the providers who did not support the changed format and ended up throttling the game data going through it's servers.
update: I set the launcher to use the US proxy for both game play and patch and did another verify. Seems to be holding for the moment so here's hoping.

It's not just your direct provider that could be the problem - it's the big providers like Cogent in between.
Cryptic's server seems to be fine, as shown by the fact that the vast majority of players don't seem to be having trouble.

Now normally, 180ms would be the upper level of acceptable latency, assuming that there was no packet drop occurring... The next question is, do you have a packet drop issue on your connection??? substitute the 'pathping' command for the 'tracert' command, and post the results, as that would provide much more solid evidence for Cryptic/PWE to work with...
Everything looks fine until the traffic hits the Cogent Boston Hub, where significant packet drop is occurring...

Ah yes, the "We looked, and it's all at your end guys cause our servers rock" thread. Thing is, while I'm watching "Server Not Responding" and waiting for what I know comes next, the "wonderful" Zone chat keeps right on chugging.
Maybe we could get them to run the game servers on the chat hardware that seems to be unstoppable, and run the Zone chat I wouldn't miss on the current "hit-or-miss" game hardware?

Sure, I got the random disconnect in the past but I've never had THIS much trouble playing the game. I've triple checked everything. It's not a connection problem on my end. Something got messed up on Cryptic's side after the last patch.
It's as if Cryptic's server can't handle all the daily traffic generated by the Winter event free ship giveaway so random player just get disconnected whenever the server reaches capacity.

Don't believe the lies in this forum. I am NOT an ARC user. I play STO on Steam or not at all.
I get disconnected logging in, changing maps, and at random intervals just playing.
I did tracerts, dns flush, speed tests etc. per instructions on these forums, but you know...
I've been here before. The problems coincide with patches every time they pop up. Whatever patch got us ready for winter also initiated the crashing.
There have been three or four memorable times in STO's lifetime where I've had issues and they always correspond with a patch and are resolved eventually with another patch. I quit playing for a year and came back for f2p and was like wow, things work now! I've been here mostly ever since. I was having a pretty good run this past year but I guess I was due for this?
I was just happy a new character I made only got booted once during Mirror Invasion hour this morning, that was nice. I am running the winter race on ten characters and am crashing at least once each. Two d/c'd mid-race. The races aren't taking long but the crashing means I pretty much just want to log off after I get the photos.
edit: since this post I've had no less than 5 'server not responding' errors and disconnections. This is making the game almost unplayable especially with multiple toons.
