Can't log into Battlelog in the evenings...

Post by plasma »

I'm on the east coast.. specifically, Atlanta, GA, and it seems like the last 3-4 nights around 9:30 EST I am unable to load Battlelog or BF4. If I'm playing BF4, it crashes, then I can't load, but it doesn't matter if I am in game or not. I try rebooting my computer and resetting my router. Also tried multiple browsers. Sometimes it's hours before I can load Battlelog and sometimes it's within 30 minutes.

anyone else have this issue? or know of a fix?

when you can't load the page, run a MTR to the domain in question(battlelog.battlefield.com or ea.com).

Try using google DNS, or if you are already using google DNS, go back to your ISP DNS. It looks like they are using akamai CDN for their site, which I have read akamai uses DNS to determine the closest content server for you.

goto your network settings

properties of your adapter, ipv4 properties, change the DNS to: 8.8.8.8 and/or 4.2.2.2

Those are google DNS servers, which are often more reliable than the ISP's. If you find it makes things worse set DNS back to DHCP
