Disconnect when entering new map, mostly TFOs

This is bugging me for months now. Very often when I enter a TFO and sometimes just entering any new map, I get a disconnect. I can sit around in earth space dock or deep space nine for hours, nothing. One TFO, bam, disconnect. When I log back in, hit the play button there is a warning about an error and three options to enter the game.
It makes no sense. Especially considering at the beginning of the map there isnt much going on that could be too much for my pretty strong internet connection.

Just entered a TFO, loading screen was at 32% and disconnect. Standing around in dyson joint command, nothing no matter how much is going on.

    Usually I start TFOs and patrols while im in social zones. But its happening when I go to mission starting points too. I still think whatever happens during the loading screen either causes some kind of overload that the client cant handle or some form of afk that triggers the disconnect mechanic but it still leads to an error warning when logging back in.

    Also the crash and shutdown log files have identical entries. The game knows it happens because of some error but it still files it as a crash and normal shutdown without creating a useful error message.

    It just makes no sense.

    This has been happening to me for weeks now....maybe months. It's not just TFO it potentially happens on any map move.
    It's kinda behaving like, STO devs just don't want you playing their game at all. Maybe if other game companies had the same immense level of bugs in their games, I would assume that's just the nature of making video games but it's not. Other game companies actually do it all the time.

    Why does STO ALWAYS have some kind of major bug going on? Is it on purpose? I really have to wonder if it's on purpose? Like, do they hate us and want us to go away? o.O

    This happens to me a lot. I think it might have something to do with internet speed, or possibly crowded servers. At home this happens a lot but when I'm at my college it doesn't happen at all.
    Tenye wa chesh gut!

    Definately not internet speed related because its only happening at map changes. Otherwise it would happen during battles with much more going on.

    It would help if the devs gave us some method to find out if its on our or their end.
