November 8, 20232 yr Very reliable 1 Gb/sec comcast connection (tested while sim is running) Empty Community Folder / Normal Mode 1.34.16.0 - checking for updates finds none only takes 1' 45" to get to World Map Options/Data show ON for online/Bing World/Photogrammety I select Textron 172 and KTIW in World Map and click FLY 10" for blue progress bar to extend 80% of way to right - spends another minute or three doing ?? Network activity varies between 0 and 32 kps with occasional bursts to 100 kps but sim CPU stays above 40% At Ready to Fly screen I get a low bandwidth message and "switched to offline mode" I go to data options and see that Online Functionality is enabled but Bing World Data is OFF and Photo... is grayed out OFF I set Bing and Photo... to ON and click APPLY and get the PLEASE WAIT Applying Settings message with a spinning white circle in the bottom right corner - then a WARNING appears telling me the connection has an issue - then warning disappears and sometime later reappears - all the while showing no or almost no network activity but Speedtest shows 950 Mbs to over 1 Gps Sometimes stays in that loop until I kill the sim. Sometimes, after many minutes of applying, the Data option shows Online/Bing World Graphics/Photogrametry ON. When I press RESUME - the sim progresses to flying BUT only the offline scenery is loaded. Options/Data then shows I am offline - I try to enable Bing but then get back into the Warning "connection issue" or "connection lost" Sim was running super last night but the problem above has been occurring for many hours today (EST Nov 😎 Any thoughts?

November 8, 20232 yr Your connection is only as good as the weakest link...that includes the server, and every node the data passes through. If you're getting good throughput to other sites, then most likely it's a problem at the server end. These are the perils of reliance on streaming data.

November 8, 20232 yr Author Switching to Map Enhancement using Google Earth solved the problem and returned to 40 fps as usual. BUT - sim then hung after I landed and switched off all electronics - at the RESTART CONTINUE MAIN MENU screen - eventually had to kill the task AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D / MSI X870 Tomahawk Mobo / 64 GB DDR5 memory / RTX 4070 Super with 12 GB VRAM / AORUS FO48U 4k display NVMe for Drive C, an NVMe device dedicated to Flight Sim 2024 and a separate NVMe device for Flight Sim 2020 and an NVMe dedicated to 500GB of addons managed by AddonsLinker / 1 GB Comcast Xfinity Internet connection / HP Reverb G2 / Tobii 5 Head & Eye Tracking
