Proxy management problem: Proxy changes during session

I noticed the proxy changes during a session. Is this new in the current version? (37.0.2062.0 (278856))

Certain connections don't work well or not at all with certain proxies (because the proxies being used by Epic are most likely or may I say obviously also used by others, not necessarily Epic users, for illegitimate tasks).

Up to now I was most of the time able to restart Epic until I got a connection with a proxy that does not cause any trouble, but for a short time now I cannot establish a connection to certain servers. I now noticed that this is due to the proxy IP changing in the course of one session.

Can this be helped and maybe even with a switch to chose whether proxies are handled dynamically?

Thanks.

Re: Proxy management problem: Proxy changes during session

Hi

Proxies connection have nothing to do with Browser. This is because if one of our IP is down for some reason or on during proxy server restart, You will be connected to different IP, there by your session logs out. This is a very rare thing that happens unless one of the server is taken down for maintenance.

If this happens often, please do let us know.

Thank You
Sai

Re: Proxy management problem: Proxy changes during session

Yes, it happens often, thats why I was posting this issue. Been happening all day today and yesterday.

To clarify: I start Epic and get connected via 208.94.247.130

Then I connect to a server, but after a short while I get thrown out. I take another look and realize the IP has changed to 204.27.58.34 in the meantime.

Generally
199.189.86.27
199.217.118.201
204.27.56.170
204.27.58.34
are not working, and then there is one Linode IP, but Linode is explicitly banned from many networks too.

Thanks!

So this is not a very rare thing, the connection to the server is dropped after seconds to minutes. This is going on for days now. Why does this happen, please?

Thanks!
