Yeah I got this too. But tried again and it worked.
But port-forwarding is what it’s telling you to do
This guy gave a good solution
In BF3 the workaround for having more than one pc running the game was a simple yet little known step… just modify your program startup shortcut with “-port XXXXX” X being whatever port you want to use, just increasen default by 2. Worked perfectly when my broski was playing, both of us connected to the same router.
I bought an Ethernet adapter with 2-day free shipping, so hopefully it’ll arrive Monday or at least Tuesday. It’s not as good as a wired connection, but better than WiFi and cheaper than drilling holes in my house and buying a long cable.

The problem is definitely with DICE and EA, because I had 3659 and all the other required ports forwarded, and had no issues. My router firmware is up to date, and so is my game and all my drivers and punkbuster. The fact that not even Smart Port Forwarding isn’t helping (though I shouldn’t need it with 3659 already forwarded) says that it’s DICE and EA’s fault.

Game disconnected: Client closed down connection. Check your network connection and make sure that port 3659 (UDP) is open.
Why after all this time this pops up ?
the people all got it on the server
Yep new bug from the incompetent dice…
Playing operation locker and kicked because of this, i then looked for the server and it had vanished into thin air and i have not had a battle report. (server is there now game was 14hours ago). I was watching a twitch streamer last night and he said “i gave up on bf4 after china rising as it was obvious they were not going to fix the game”.
I guess Dice are going after the worst company award or at least want to be runners up with EA.
This must be a record breaker for the most bugged game , I wonder if the Guinness book of records will be interested giving them a certificate for it ..
Ive just spoke with EA support. Was hoping to get same tips that @Antifox08 had with his speech. And you know what. Guy asked me to do few things. Mostly it goes about this one:
http://help.ea.com/en/article/how-to-troubleshoot-connectivity-issues/ [help.ea.com]
then he asked me to do UOtrace to that easo.ea.com write it to the notepad and attach to conversation. At the end he said that i should be getting an email from someone who may say something more about that.
BF4 = disappointment since day 1
Guys, just to share my situation, I had this problem and I couldn’t play for 2 straight days because I would be kicked out of the game with this error in less than 5 minutes.
I finally got to play normally today.
I did two things, so I’m not sure what exactly solved it.
-
I did a FULL reinstall of BF4, all ~35GBs of it.
-
This sounds stupid because I should have done this earlier, I did a hard restart of my router. Not a reboot but an unplug the power for 10 seconds and then plug it back on. I specifically mention unplugging because a firmware reboot of the router did NOT solved the issue.
Hope my case can help some other people out there experiencing the Port 3659 issue.
For the record, I did not have to mess around with port forward settings as I never had issues before, so no port forward settings were required.
So I admit, it seems like it was my side and not DICE this time around. ![]()

Just experienced this myself for the first time, was on Firestorm - Second Assault. Time for me to go through the feedback here and see it can be resolved.

same problem here
I have used port forwarding like the guide for my router. The problem returns every day. The game works for 1 hour then the battlelog says me to open 3659 again.
Same if i try to take down the firewall …this game sucks
THIS IS A BLOODY GLITCH EVEN WITH PORT OPEN IT STILL HAPPENS LOL FIX IT OR REFUND!!!
This. It is some sort of glitch/error. All of us have been able to play the game, hence our hours logged, so this problem coming after a “patch” is not our problem.
