[CLIENT] Intermittent "Disconnected from PVPnet" post 4.21 update.

As the title states, I have been having intermittent disruptions in my connection to PVPnet post 4.21- this issue did not exist prior(even though there was that terrible issue with 4.20).

Anyways, the reproduction steps are simple: Try to do anything. Literally.

Once I've actually hit the loading screen I have no issue, but therein lies the problem: The probability of me actually staying connected long enough to join a match is next to nil. I can't queue, even with a full premade team, unless I purposefully wait to accept the invite until AFTER I've disconnected and reconnected.

I've tried every possible fix under the sun, even some that sound too absurd to actually work. I sincerely doubt it's my ISP or computer dropping the connection because I host a 7 Days to Die server for myself and a few friends and they have yet to complain about connection stability, but the moment we try to hop on LoL to play a few matches I get DCed every few minutes.

The disconnects last roughly 2-4 seconds each, but some can last long enough that I have to exit out and relaunch the client... and when that happens there's about a 25% chance I either won't be able to log in for a few minutes or when I do I'm disconnected from chat.

This is really breaking my enjoyment of LoL, especially considering I just threw more money than I should've at you guys over the holidays and can't even enjoy the skins I bought because I can't effectively queue for matches.

System specs, although irrelevant, are: W7-x64, Intel i5, 4gb RAM, Radeon 7670M 1gb(switchable, alternatively I also have an Intel HD chip), and my ISP is Comcast.

Also, my apologies if this issue has been brought to your attention already and I'm just creating a duplicate thread instead of posting on an existing one to confirm it's not just that person- but my level of frustration is too high to be asked to double check. I just want to tell you about it so hopefully it can be fixed ASAP or someone in the know can give me a fix method. (I've literally tried everything, so unless you know EXACTLY how to fix it please don't post a speculated fix. IE: "Have you tried -insert common networking solution here-")

Edit: Didn't realize I posted this under my smurf account, but ohwell.

I've had something much like this happen as well, although it seems like you have a more severe problem. It hasn't effected me once I'm in game, but sitting in the client I constantly get told I've disconnected from pvp.net.

I have this same problem man Constantly disconnects me from pvp.net Can rarely log into chat service when i get to champ select and its my turn to pick i get connection failure and it either lags a little and comes back and my champ is chosen or ( this only happens to me in ranked) it freezes for a sec then says connection failure then comes back and boots me and says i failed to select champ or the client even crashes sometimes. im getting very annoyed with this and it keeps making me lose LP in ranked. hopefully this gets fixed soon

Did you end up fixing this issue? I have the same thing happening to me, where after every game or just intermittently every couple minutes my client just D/C's from PvP.net. I can't for the life of me figure out how to fix it. I've sent a ticket and done all that was said and I still have the problem :/
