I have never heard of using a VPN to fix this. Could you elaborate? Thx

This is from the release note: "In Aircraft & Avionics Update 02, we added new telemetry to help investigate the “bandwidth is too low” and connection loss issues users in the community have reported. While the investigation is ongoing, thanks to data gathered during the flight we were able to narrow down the search. For example, we now understand the issues are not limited to specific regions or locations. With the global release of AAU 02 this week, we’ll have the opportunity to gather data on a larger scale and continue working towards a solution." So there you have it. I am now one of those affected. I guess they could not find the root cause so they decided to release the update to gather more data. As for me, the sim is now unusable. One of my option now is to get in touch with MS and log a ticket to see if they can find anything with what happened to me.

Hi folks, As per this https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/release-aircraft-avionics-update-02-1-33-8-0-now-available/597642 the AAU2 did not resolve the connection drop/low bandwidth issue reported with beta but merely add support to collect diagnostics. Well as I have been experienced recently (before I knew about this), all my recent flight ceased to work with the message pop up about lost network connection, low bandwidth after 10 mins or so with default aircraft even, the sim froze and I had to kill it with task manager. My network connection was also busted afterward and I had to restart my PC to get it back. So my question to those in the know is: why AAU2 was released with that issue, what's next that I can do to restore my sim, short of re-installing. How do I remove AAU2? Thanks in advance

Great shots. Just curious, since you are using MSE, how's the FPS, smoothness etc? Much better than using the sim's texture and autogen? I also assume you are using FSX. Thanks

Hmm, interesting. Do you have this performance with payware airport sceneries, or you don't use them? I have a 60 Hz 2560x1600, so not 4K. I wonder any trick with that one.

Nice shots!

Yes, please do. While I decide whether I should spend more money on this hobby or not. So far thousands have been spent on HW/Add-ons The only constant seems to be more money, and of course with every update, more time tweaking dealing with issues due to the update. Don't get me wrong, the developer should be compensated fairly for what they offer and the price you are willing to pay is the perceived value of what you pay for. Ever since I made the move to P3D, I have seen the same song and dance: more money because it's a constantly evolved platform. Then I will come back in 5 years when I have more time and hopefully by then there is a good performing sim platform that I can then spend money on and have something good in return. The fact that it's more expensive in P3D also means that there are less people buying stuffs for it. Not all simmers can afford to be on the latest hw and have unlimited fund. You charge what the market is willing to pay, and right now for my corner I found this latest pricing strategy a confirmation that the trend is that P3D is more and more for the people who have money to spend. At some point I will have to stop and evaluate. I guess that time is now for me. Enjoy AS2016 everyone.

Well, at least have the same price for each platform. Sure I can live with having to pick one platform instead of a dual license, but an upgrade price of 39.99 for P3D versus 29.99 for FSX? :Shame On You:

Side note, I don't know why they stopped. CZST was supposed to be their test product. This can only mean that the money is not there. That's just too bad because I want more airports like that for PNW in XPX.

That's is excellent news. I wonder how will this GTN compare with the Flight1 version.

May be the mod will move it :smile: btw, the KTNP is part of ORBX SoCal or is it another payware? Looks nice. I have not even downloaded 3.3 yet, still on the fence.

Very nice. Is that P3D 3.2 or 3.3? I will also need to find time to fly too. Have been too busy for almost two months.

Ah, the urge of new toys :smile: FSX-SE does offer a few new things, namely the better recompiled code and I found it more stable than the old BOX edition. Most of your current add-ons will work just fine. FSX-SE uses the Steam platforms so if there is bug fixes, they are available. Plus if you will change the Windows OS in the future, FSX-SE will continue to be supported whereas the box edition is pretty much dead in future support. As for me, I am still looking for a sim that will look good, have really good env effect like shadows and run smoothly, has all the niceties, (no XPX ain't it) , alas I am still looking.

They have the "banana" ;-) I hear you. The GTN750 still has no VNAV but it has the other two features. Unfortunately, other than buying the Carenados and stuff in a GTN750 and then put up with their other incomplete stuffs, you are very limited to the ES 750 and nothing else at the moment. You could get the PMDG 737 and paint it in "bizjet" liveries (there are a couple of 737-600 and 737-700 variant that is quite nice. I found the lack of VNAV in the Mustang ok, force me to think and calculate my own descend and hand fly the thing. Sure it's not as complete as the real thing, but apparently programming VNAV into the unit is too much work for F1 for the money they think they can make. Many people just want the pretty shells, fly a few rounds, next...

Hmm, is this a permanent solution or a temporary work-around? I have not moved up to 3.3 yet, and so far I don't see any advantage in doing so.
