I have been having connection issues since the release of retail Crysis 2. Intermittently not being able to connect with my gamesas account, not being able to load servers from the server browser, and when the stars aligned and I could connect to a server, I couldn't stay connected for more than five minutes.

I tried messing with both software and hardware firewall settings (I have a Netgear WGR614v10 router) and nothing seemed to help.

Finally, last night, I completely disconnected my router and ran my internet connection straight from my modem into my computer.

This has solved all of my problems.

I understand that not everyone is able to do this, depending on your specific setup. Nor should you really have to do this. But, I love the multiplayer in this game and it is worth it to me (for the time being) to go through the hassle of reconnecting the router whenever I need wireless network access.

Maybe I'm an exception and this won't work for anyone else. Just hoping I can possibly help someone who hadn't considered this possibility before.

Thanks

Bumping this one time, hopefully it helps someone out.
