Is it me? (ongoing server issues during peak times)

I do still CTD but I get a much better result with the following steps.

  1. start system
  2. cmd as admin - ipconfig /flushDNS
  3. reboot
  4. cmd as admin - ipconfig /flushDNS (without reboot)
  5. start sim

Sounds a bit weired especially that I have to flushDNS two times but with this steps I have a 50:50 chance of having the sim running.
If it runs with the current dns I can close it and restart the sim without CTD

Maybe worth a try.
So far I do only free flights, do not know if this will help with other modes as well.
Simsetup:
vanilla sim + AxisAndOhs + BlackSquare turbine duke + GTN 750 from PMS50 + tobii (manual adjusted XML)

vanilla sim + AxisAndOhs + c 172 Asobo + GTN 750 from PMS50 (not in use but still in the community folder) + tobii (manual adjusted XML)

vanilla sim + AxisAndOhs + H225 + GTN 750 from PMS50 (not in use but still in the community folder) + tobii (manual adjusted XML)

I am totaly aware that this sounds a bit like voodoo. At least it seems to work for me. Did so far 3 times work.
