I am really getting tired of these popping up. I rarely have had any issues with my system and truly believe that MS is making some changes to their servers for MSFS2024 that are affecting 2020.

I'm seeing many more of these issues on various forums now that ever before. Could be a coincidence.

Oh well, only a little over a week to see if 2024 has the same issues.

 

 

None here. I see no such impact at all

Yep, fully agree.

I would love to see a auto reconnect when you got disconnected, that would avoid leabing the cockpit to go into the menu, click on the data tab and then turn several offs to on again.

That would at least give me some confidence and some less hassle to get online again.

Yes, I'm getting those too. For a long time they were gone, now they're back again.

No way I'd buy FS2024 if their servers cannot cope.

Often the disconnect/low bandwidth issues last less then half a minute. Then don't show those messages, and NEVER switch me to offline.

Is it coming up as low bandwith? If so google bandwidth problems on you tube.

Why? I know what it means, I know it's not my system or ISP.

Why mislead people with a message saying 'your bandwidth is too low' when it is their bandwidth that is too low?

It's almost as if ALL error messages these days are parsed by some internal spin /pr team before going live to make sure at no point is any issue ever hinted at being the fault of the paid software itself. 

Reminds me of the start up crash /safe mode warning. Can't remember exact wording but I think it suggests 3 possible causes, ALL your fault, and suggests you turn off community folder via safe mode as OBVIOUSLY it's the fault of some external addon not the sim itself. 

I think I tweaked something to stop the low bandwidth disconnect messages (but can't remember what). Recently they've been replaced each flight by a brief YOUR BANDWIDTH IS TOO LOW FOR PHOTOMMAGUVVINAGERY - turn off or ignore (ignore obviously duh).

I'm using an I pad as a 2nd monitorset up with spacedesk.  It constantly kept droppinp with low bandwith message. I google the issue and followed instructions on how to correct the problem.  Bandwith on pc has set values. You would have research how to change bandwidth for these values. I cannot guarantee it will work for you.

Do a good research before attempting any changes on system. Best wishes.

Had this a couple of times a day in the last 2 or 3 days. usually just reconnects by itself in a few seconds.

I know your good intentions but I know how to get the best from my connection. Besides, I don't have this problem constantly. There are months everything works fine and then I get a few disconnects/low bandwidth messages a day. It is a server problem.

Low bandwidth is worse than connection lost. When you get a low bandwidth message you get switched offline immediately.

I wish they gave us the option to only get a message after connection fails for more than a minute. As well as the option to never get switched offline.
