I'm getting connection restricted!!!

[Speedwrath]

Help me please! I don't know what is happening! I was playing with my Paladin and then when I left the game, the "Please Wait" popup shows up, then it logs me out, and then when I log back in, it says, "Your connection has been temporarily restricted from this realm. Please try to log in at another time."

The first time it happened, it only lasted for like 10 minutes.

So then I went back, I went to level my Paladin again doing Baal runs. I stayed AT LEAST 10 minutes in EACH game!!! And after the THIRD game, when I exit from the game, the same thing happened, except this time it was for AN HOUR!!! :(

So after I logged back in again, I decided to stop Baal runs and go look for Waypoints. I made this game, stayed there for like 30 minutes, then left and went to do Anya. Took me like 20 minutes, and then, after I log out, it happened AGAIN!!! And it still is right now. It's been dead for like 10 minutes now. :(

Please, can anyone tell me what am I doing that's wrong? Is it something I'm doing? Does refreshing the game list (by pressing Create and then Join again) have anything to do with this, because I do it a lot when looking for games.

But I don't use chat, I rarely send messages, I have only one account and I don't switch characters very often. Why is this happening to me? :(

It happens to me when I have downloads running on the background.

Thats one reason I don't play Bnet much anymore, same thing happens to me (and a few other of my friends) after playing for about an hour. I don't think you're doing anything wrong, its just Bnet.

This happened to me twice. Once it took about 5 minutes to clear up, the other about roughly 18-22 hours to clear up.

If it ever takes more than 3 days to connect than u have a problem, otherwise its just b.net being ridiculous.

Seriously, with the 1.11 patch these realm downs have become more and more retarded..

I am also suffering from this promblem, i read somwhere that it has somthing to do with a high ping and battle net thinking your up to no good.

This is really hindering my playing and i also would like to get to the bottom of this issuse so that i can ultimatly stop it from happening. :rolleyes: .
