How often do you get disconnected in ESO? PC and console players.

    Not going to say it never happens, but it happens so rarely, it's more like "Huh?"

    Of course I do all the right things, including making sure the ports needed for the game are open on my router, Anti-Virus is not involved with the game, windows firewall is turned off (I have a cisco hardware firewall)
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    every 2 hours give or take. zos needs to address this. i can't do vdsa without out getting kicked at least once.

    frankly judging by the rest of the post I doubt it's on ZOS end. Are you on a hard-wired device?
    By that logic you would expect crashes and freezes on any online game, yet eso is the only game that I experience disconnections....

    PS4 EU here.

    In pve / open world, I get disconnected very rarely, and only when I'm loading a character.

    In pvp, I get disconnected quite often, at least one time for a session of a couple of hours.

    But my nightmare is my primary home, Matiisen Manor: there, I get disconnected ALWAYS, even after only a minute or so... I think it's haunted...

    PC used to crash to login rarely, after U17 it was happening 1-2 times per night, always in Cyrodiil.

    Since the patch this Monday I haven't crashed once, even in huge drawn out battles. I didn't see any performance fixes listed, so it might be coincidental timing or (more likely) an addon that was causing the problems and has since been fixed.

    Seems from most comments the people that say they only disconnect once a week, usually dont play that much compared to other people. During peak hours it doesnt seem to disconnect as much imo.

    Daily player, multiple (more than I care to admit) hours per day. Rarely disco. When I do, I can usually find the reason by doing a trace route but happily lately things have been nice and smooth.

    It can happen once or twice (rare) a day.

    I know now when I am about to be kicked when the likes of the, I can't mount or npc window will not open or even changing skill bars. I just quit the game and come back in within a minute or two.

    I do have a unreliable ISP (Virgin Media) which doesn't help but I do believe the games connection has improved imo.

      I don't remember the last time ESO disconnected me. I've lost my own internet connection a few times while playing, but a disconnect from the server side? Yeah, it's been a LONG time.

      Daily player here too and very rarely disconnect. Couple weekends ago I did a trial where I was DC'ing constant... very quickly realized it was my internet. Fixed my network issue - boom. No problems.
