Are you having trouble connecting to a Rust Experimental server or are you constantly getting disconnected just minutes, or even seconds after you join? What about getting stuck on the receiving data screen? If so, then I may be able to help you.
I am not sure if this will fix everyone's problem with their connection issues, but I know that it COMPLETELY fixed mine.
[B]Getting timed out error or disconnecting minutes or even seconds after you join / Getting stuck at the receiving data screen:[/B]
Go to your router's settings and disable the router's firewall. So many people disable the computer's firewall and still have trouble, including me, but I didn't fix my issue until I disabled the router's firewall. You may also want to disable WAN Ping Blocking if your router has this setting. If this is enabled, it rejects pings from third parties.
[B]Disconnected due to EAC issues:[/B]
If you get a notice saying that you have been disconnected due to EAC being un-connected, simply run Rust through Steam. If you are running from a shortcut on your desktop, EAC will not initialize and it will boot you and advise that EAC is un-connected. EAC only initializes when you launch the game directly from Steam.
As I stated, these may not fix everyone's connection issues, but they fixed mine 100%. I have not had ANY issues for 3 weeks since I took these steps.
Hope this helps!
