Now like 20 minutes ago i have had the CCP Server log Application running in the background, and SURE as hell, after 10 minutes of being logged in, the Socket was closed again. Even worst these last 2 days, it happens like every 10 - 15 Minutes. I just thought that I would share this as when I was looking for a solution all I could find was posts about pinging things and blaming ccp - so if your having the same problem, it's worth a try (even if it turns out to be something else) since I've done this I've had no errors at all. I found an article about win 7 having problems with some network cards - in the end I went to my device manager and right clicked on my network device, selecting "properties" -> "advanced" and turned the "Interrupt Moderation" to "Disabled" apparently, the "Interrupt Moderation" tries to stop packets of data so the computer can keep up with large amounts of data that it can receive.
#EVE ONLINE SOCKET CLOSED INSTALL#
after changing my IP, router, all of my hard drives (which meant a clean install of both win7 and eve) and changing from Wi-Fi to cable, only to find the problem was still there. I was getting 2 closed socket errors one over the other quite a lot - it ranged from once every hour to 5 or 6 times an hour depending on how annoying it wanted to be.

ill copy what I said here as well in case it is useful to anyone who would look here first. In my eagerness to share - I started a new thread before I saw this one - I apologise for my haste. I have no issues whatsoever connecting to other games or services, all of which run flawlessly with no connection losses. All PCs are hooked up to the same ISP via the same router. One of the stationary PCs never experiences crashes, the laptop and the other stationary always crash in the order, laptop first, 20 seconds later the stationary crashes as well. One of these is a laptop, the other two stationary. I run 3 PCs and 4 accounts spread over them. (Restart/Quit) The issue started occuring approx 1 week + 5 days ago.

General information : I'm from Sweden, not the Netherlands, and I do not use Ziggo (as some people had an issue with them apparently) The message I get is something like "Connection lost, socket closed". 3 Changed the socket from 26.000 to 3724 in prefs.ini 4 I have not tested reinstalling the game, but I have tested using the repair-tool. 2 Having "ping plotter" running in the background constantly pinging Tranquility-IP. Turned it all back on, logged in, soon thereafter another connection loss. As soon as I switched to a direct LAN connection, it dropped to once or twice a year.Have tested all of the following suggestions to no effect: 1 Tested a hard reset of my modem and router.they were turned off (unplugged) for well over an hour whilst I did other things. So stop projecting, and learn how the internet works.Īs a side note, when I first started playing, I was playing on wi-fi and was getting ‘socket closed’ errors a few times a day. Your assumption that the problem couldn’t possibly be on your end, or somewhere in between, is your ignorance on display. I’m not being smug, and I’m not being ignorant. A few hiccups here and there do not detract from that even a little bit, and most ‘socket closed’ incidents have absolutely nothing to do with EVE’s servers, which are far more expensive than any single group of servers EA uses for any one game combined.


Meanwhile, EVE’s servers are historically the single most stable across online gaming history, with 98+% uninterrupted uptime (with the exception of scheduled downtimes which don’t count as failures because they are intended). And yet, EA’s servers are incredibly unreliable due to EA choosing to spend as little money as possible on them, and players consistently complain about them for every online EA game across the board.
