Extreme problems with connection (Solution)

Issue

Hey you all,

when i started playing tarkov again, half a year ago, i wasnt really able to play the game due to connection problems. I had at least 1 DC every 5 minutes (Scav and PMC runs, every map) and 50% of all runs i started didnt even connect to the server. Sometimes after i reconnected i couldnt move my character or DC'd right after.

I tried all the "helpful google" solutions. None of that worked.

But 2 weeks ago i found a post in a german computer forum. (I cant find the forum post anymore) It said:

Check your router if you have IPv6 and if its a DUAL STACK - Lite (DS-Lite) or a normal DUAL STACK.

If you dont have DUAL STACK then all your provider and ask him to change it from DS-Lite.

I had a DS-Lite connection, so i called my provider. He said it costs 1.50 Euros a month extra and a fee of 10 Euros to activate it. (If your provider doesnt want to change it for some stupid reason just tell them its needed for homeoffice)

Yesterday my provider activated DUAL STACK and now im not having any more problems with Tarkov. (Besides Backend errors now and then, but thats a serverproblem)

I hope that might help some people who had the same issues.

Good Hunting and be a nice scav xD

Good to know! If I remember correctly, a while back people were saying to disable ipv6 on your router and network adapter settings because nobody could access their website with it on. I wonder if this could somehow help in game as well?
