Connection problems for me and all my friends since last patch!

Is anyone else having the problem of randomly not connecting or being booted in champion select? This issue is recurring over and over for me and all my friends. Today I was trying to q up for my silver qualifier matches but I apparently got booted in the load screen because my team remade before i could load in. I have great internet, nothing was wrong with my connection...nothing. Oh and btw I went straight from the pre-game load screen to the end game lobby with all the other players. Total wait time was less than 3 minutes. WTF RIOT? I sick of getting tagged a leaver for some buggy crap.
