Game disconnects around the 2 minute mark

So let me start off by saying that I do believe this is unrelated to the current server issues that Riot is experience as I have had this issue for over a month now.

As you can see in this video: https://cdn-b-east.streamable.com/video/mp4/dl1uu.mp4?token=EQuScaI_yxdMAG0gAbbq0A&expires=1560121920 my game will DC around the 2 minute mark without any increase in ping and my internet still continues to work fine. Once I reconnect to the game, I have no issues. I have tried on multiple different networks and the issue has persisted, I have also reinstalled the game, disabled my firewall, ran HRT, added firewall exceptions, tried windows repair tools, checked my network connectivity, and more; yet none of these have fixed or even revealed the issue. Riot support suggests that I reinstall windows, but that doesn't guarantee the issue will be solved and due to the mass amounts of data I have on my due to work and school, that's a lot of effort for a chance at fixing an issue.

If anyone else has had this issue before, or has any ideas on how to fix it, please let me know because I want to get back to being a washed up Ahri player [sg-soraka]

I currently also have this issue; went through with Riot support, couldn't find a resolution to the problem. Did everything I could possibly do, even went as far as to talk to my campus' IT department, but the issue seems to be specifically for League, though I am also having drop-off issues with Discord from time to time.

Seems like the issue only started happening last patch with the Yuumi release, because my connection was fine before all that. On a wild tangent, you could try uninstalling Discord and see if that does anything, though I'll be honest, I haven't tried it myself. Just resigned myself to having to type 'brb' at the start of every game while I relog to make sure I don't just drop off right as lane starts. Until Riot somehow discovers the root of the problem, or someone else does, it's there to stay sadly.

But yeah, if you don't want it to happen yet still want to play League, just relaunch at the start of every game. Bandage fix, but it works.
