XR300 Disconnects every 2 hours
My router XR300 keeps disconnecting/dropping me from any game that needs a constant connection like Call of Duty Modern warfare or Warzone every 2 hours consistently. I don't get dropped from every o...
Hi All
I am on PC and experienced these 'disconnected from server' every 2 hours -ish since the beginning of Warzone amongst many other of their Warzone glitches. Over many months (possibly a year) I have tried so many different declared fixes across the web with all being unsuccessfull....until now.
Happy to report I have now jammed Warzone 24 hours without one disconnection :)
I think I found a solution and this may work for many - not all. This disconnect from server error BLZBNTBGS000003F8 appears to have more than one cause for these disconnections, across the platforms. All evidence is pointing to their servers and program (Blizzard) etc
Here is what I tried previously:
1. Update all your PC software
2. Made sure Im always plugged in via Lan Cable
3. Port forwarded all ports according to Activision etc
https://support.activision.com/articles/ports-used-for-call-of-duty-games
4. Added ports and Warzone related programs into Firewall -inbound and outbound
5. I have always used Google DNS and made sure this was on my static IP
6. Manually updated my Router Software
7. Turned on Dynamic QoS (via router settings)
8. Downloaded EXITLAG program to see if this corrected the error. (This didn't work but I may have experienced better ping in-game :))
Here is my fix!
Step 1: Close your Blizzard Program/Launcher then proceed to delete the Battle.net folder
Step 2: Load Blizzard program and then log out and close the Blizzard Program
Step 3: Open Blizzard program and at the login - click the settings and change login region to Asia/America (where ever you are) ...then login!
Step 4: Once logged in, change region inside of blizzard program to Asia/America (if not already on the same)
Step 5: Load Warzone
Once Warzone has loaded switch back to the Blizzard Program and log out. Then close the Blizzard program while Warzone is running.
Go back to Warzone and Enjoy without being disconnected.
-Let me know how you go
I would like to state, Activision and any related party have NOT been helpful.

- I play on my xbox and only on my Xbox. And I get the same error “disconnected from the wired network” then it saids “connected to the wired network “ while playing MWF. I reset, soft reset and updated my router. I’ve even changed my xbox, my isp from Xfinty to Frontier FiberOptic. And I still get the same error. Please help.
Do you own your own place or rent?
Ive had a similar issue in an older place I rented. I went through ISP. router/s hours making changes to internal settings and even spoke with a few technicians who checked the connections from footpath and in house.
After 6 months and multiple complaints they eventually replaced the connection (in the house) and the instant disconnections and re-connections immediatly stopped - it was an older connection
This was random behaviour for the device and we still cannot explain how and why this occured. It was chalked down to the "older" connection points
- When I bought my it was wired for DSL, I changed it to xfinity all new wires, now frontier new optical cable. So it’s not the wiring. I narrow it down to the router. I took my ex ox to my boys house and my router. I plugged in my Xbox onto his optimum ISP, we played for hour not a hiccup. I removed my Xbox and plugged in my router with his Xbox sure enough dropped signal. Now I know it’s not the Xbox nor my frontier/xfinity. It’s this darn router.
also to note: may be worth checking if this occurs when your not playing COD
