It might come as a shock, but its certainly not unfair. I've been in a similar boat. I was playing Black Ops 1 many moons ago, everything seemed fine. Bullets registered, people died when they should have, movement was smooth... Then all of a sudden a random in the lobby yells "BIELTAN FIX YOUR -blam!-ING CONNECTION". I was pretty taken aback, so after the match I went into theatre mode to see if anything was going on. To my horror I saw that I was lagging absolute balls. Further investigation revealed that this only happened during a certain timespan, which happened to line up perfectly with the hours during which my ISP enacted "traffic management" aka nerfed my bandwidth. No connection tests I did turned up anything out of the ordinary, but it was clearly disrupting my signal.

Connection logs say your connection is not fine, and other players must have the same answer when they play with you. There is no option to dispute this. What are your tested upload/download speeds, latency, jitter, packet loss %?

Bungie has checked and has seen over a period of time your connection is unstable. You are selfish to keep on playing in the crucible or gambit with a bad connection. You need to get a better stable connection hard wired wi-fi is NO good for playing Destiny. If you carry on you WILL be permo banned.

[quote]I have recently received a warning saying “This account has a consistently unstable internet connection that is affecting other players. If this continues, the account may be restricted from matchmaking against other players.” My connection is fine and this is unfair. Am I able to dispute this? Feel free to check my account (“CrownOfCoochie” is my PSN.)[/quote] There are 3 types of punishments for Destiny/Bungie. Bans, Restrictions and Suspensions. LEARN THE DIFFERENCE. BANS are permanent and apply to the whole game. The message usually says: "NOT SO FAST! This account has been banned." And looks like this http://imgur.com/gallery/Tw7g7Jg RESTRICTIONS are temporary. The message usually says: "RESTRICTED! This account is temporarily restricted from _______." And looks like this http://imgur.com/gallery/st40PuU If it is your 1st RESTRICTION it's USUALLY 2 weeks. If it is your 2nd RESTRICTION it's USUALLY 2 months. RESTRICTIONS can stack on each other, usually due to the severity and frequency of multiple reports overtime. So 2 weeks AND 2 months, so to most players there won't be a 2nd splash screen and the RESTRICTION ends later than expected. RESTRICTIONS USUALLY end during the reset of that week and not the day of. If you have had 2 prior RESTRICTIONS a 3rd penalty can either be a much longer RESTRICTION or a lifetime RESTRICTION from Crucible and Gambit or a full on lifetime BAN from the entire game. Sometimes you will be given a splash screen that looks like this http://imgur.com/gallery/GpYKBGG warning you of an issue so you can fix it before a restriction is placed. In-Game Gambit/Competitive Crucible SUSPENSIONS are only 30-60mins and placed AUTOMATICALLY if you leave too many games in a short time span for ANY reason. Whether it be a ddos, error code or power outage. The message usually says: "TIME OUT! You left a ______ match before it was complete…." And looks like this for Competitive and Gambit http://imgur.com/gallery/stqxYIj They WILL NOT respond or message you. They WILL NOT tell why a punishment was issued. EDIT: [Recently (as of June 28/2019) SOMETIMES BNGSecurity will give a general reason why the punishment was placed. They look like this http://imgur.com/gallery/eSY1iGc] They don't have to. They don't care. Loyalty. Time played. Content purchased. Gear earned. When you started. Intent. Threats. Begging. It is all irrelevant. They make the rules. We have to follow them. Break them and they penalize you. There is NO course of action to appeal any punishment issued. They WILL NOT lessen or remove any punishment issued for any reason. They've had this no tolerance policy since Day 1 of D1. It won't change anytime soon. The reasons most ppl have a punishment issued to them is: For some form of cheating (ddossing). Playing with cheaters (paying for a carry, sharing account info, or staying in a lobby with a cheater for too long and benefiting from their illegal actions). Or having consistently terrible internet connection that it affects OTHERS players and not just yourself. You may be playing fine. But to others you may appear as an unkillable red-bar. For most PC tagalongs: They are banned because SOMETHING installed on your PC was viewed as a POTENTIAL threat to D2 and those are PROMPTLY BANNED. The process for BANS and RESTRICTIONS involve reports coming in from players or their flag system towards an individual. The Bungie monkey at HQ reviews it. And they decide if it was warranted or not.

Connection speed has nothing to do about connection quality. First check does your connection lag (google up Internet connection ping test). If your latency (ping) is high, like over 100 milliseconds, it is bad and you should fix it. If your internet is shared at home with other devices and / or people, it also impacts negatively. If you run other software like spotify, phone, etc —> it can also have very drastic impact to your ping and connection quality. For this case also the router quality can play a big role. I got my ping to around 50ms just by replacing cheap router to better quality one.

If you continue to go into pvp or Gambit, without doing anything about your connection, you can expect a 2 week restriction.
