I launch Ark Survival Ascended but the connection cuts out
You're experiencing a recurring internet connection problem when launching your game. After restarting, powering down and resetting your network, and even reinstalling the game, the issue disappears instantly. Your fiber connection is gigabit, and you're running a powerful Corsair Vengeance i8100 Gaming PC with a high-end setup.
You've been using the game for a short while without any connectivity problems, even when Nord VPN is active. It seems there might be some unnecessary software installed. Are there any additional programs or processes running alongside Ark or BattleEye that could be causing conflicts?
I don’t have any extra software I’m aware of, and since the PC is brand new with Steam Ark and Battlefield installed, everything seems to be working fine. The only mystery is that at home it was running smoothly without any internet problems—probably related to the fiber connection at my workplace. I plan to buy either an Ethernet cable or a Wi-Fi setup once I’m done work tonight, but I’d rather use Wi-Fi because the routers are about 30 feet away.
