I have been trying to tell people from the very beginning or whenever someone has connectivity issues that it’s most likely an ISP issue. MSFS is one of the very few programs that pretty much maxes out your internet connection when it’s used. ISP’s are pretty smart in how they control and regulate the amount of traffic and try to spread it around to everyone. No doubt they probably have algorithms that track and record data usage for geographical areas and have built in algorithms that detect what they consider unusually high usage and so to safeguard themselves and others within the area they’ll reduce the flow to that one specific source. Now, they won’t just kill your connection, but they’ll definitely reduce it. American ISP’s, where I am located, are probably some of the most free and open ISP’s on the globe. It’s not surprising that the majority of people experiencing these issues are from other countries. I think within the few months that this issue has really started I maybe have had 2-3 totally dropped connections where I needed to reactivate my data settings in MSFS, and no I never got one CTD from those either. Outside of an actual server outage connectivity has never been an issue and if it was it was probably because of using a Wifi extender which sometimes drops anyways or has poor connectivity but eventually gets over itself.
