I've been having this sporadic issue where randomly my character will stop moving, 10 seconds later I'll get a yellow connection alert at the top of the screen, then 15 seconds later a red connection alert and then nothing for a long while until DDO will close and give an error message "Connection with DDO server has been lost" (or something to this effect). This isn't too frequent (maybe once every few hours), but I've never once had it go from yellow or red connection back to reconnecting, it closes 100% of the time.
The bigger issue is, that once this happens and I try to re-log back into the game, I cannot log back into the character I was playing for several (I think about 10+ minutes). When trying to log into that character the loading screen bar just does not move. If I close DDO and try again, I will get a "cleaning up old connection" when logging in, but then if I try the character again, the same non-loading problem happens. I can log into my other characters on my account just fine, but the character that disconnected can't be accessed until some indeterminate amount of time has passed.
Beyond annoyance of dropping out of any groups I am a part of and missing the quest XP, it also kind of makes me out to be a jerk because I randomly just time out during dungeons and I like to play in parties, often posting my own. It's also common that once I do get back in game on that character, I am also disconnected from the chat server for 15-20 minutes before that will eventually reconnect.
