  I have been getting disconnected multiple times during play.   Several times it has happened 3 times in the same game and the game is cancelled because of it.  What is the problem here?

  Almost 2 years later, and still getting disconnects, and others telling me they have as well.  Apparently it's just me and my friends since no one else seems to comment.

  There are many thread about the disconnects ... they are so common now we take it as a way of life on WGT. 

  The only thing you can try to do is mitigate the problem on your end and grit your teeth when it happens, because it will happen again and again.

  Wgt does not know what the problem is and that is the problem...lol

  I havn't got a problem,  actually, I get dq'd once every 20-30 multi play games. The fact is, I think that Wgt doesn't know because not everybody is having a problem

  Yep, making web pages (and flash objects) is a complicated work, because you have to test them on every computer/system/connection/browser.

  I got a lot of wgt issues myself.

  Sometimes I feel like wgt looses my IP, that's why wgt system believes i'm off line (but I'm actually not) and disconnects me.
  Maybe the problem is dynamic IPs ?

  Do you have a static IP, Manti ?

  Yep.

  And with a good, regular (ie daily) computer maintenance regime at your end you should be able to reduce your rate of disconnects to the occasional and rare occurrence.
