Hi. I’ve been having a lot of problems with being disconnected from VASSAL while playing games. This had been occurring under the latest and previous versions of VASSAL. Recently though it has gotten so bad that while it’s not impossible to play it’s a serious distraction. I’m even being disconnected while trying to reconnect.
I’ve tried all the fixes I can find here and more but to no avail. Having run a few tests it seems I might have a hardware problem, but before I settle on that conclusion, I’d appreciate some help interpreting my error log. Some of it I do understand but there are some details that may contain clues to solving my problem that escape me. Here’s a sample of my error file:

As I understand it, I’m coming close to losing my connection every 3 minutes or so. Is this normal? What does the ‘6484’ indicate?
All help greatly appreciated,
Monte
