This has been happening a lot since the 1.2 patch. It's fairly game breaking for me. Get into a game, start enjoying it, bam... kicked for invalid packet. Well of course someone has taken my spot, now I have to wait in queue for at least 5 minutes... I would say this happens once an hour on average. I can go a few hours without it happening, sometimes it happens a few times an hour. Very frustrating. Have uninstalled anti virus, turned off firewall, tried many things. Can't seem to make it go away.

Be sure to play on a reliable network and good link (not WIFI, use RJ45 cable to connect to internet). If you're connection is not stable, then you'll have issues online.

I'm curious if this is a Verizon Fios Fiber issue... seems to be intermittent. Restarting the router doesn't help, however some days it's fine.

Interesting. Maybe we should start asking people what provider they are using. An undocumented feature in a popular brand of router was discovered not too long ago, when we noticed it was a common bit of kit in a few bug reports.
