This is what worked for me, It may not work for others.

 

After DC'ing a lot, i figured out what was causing my issues. WAN Channel interference. If you are constantly getting "Connection Lost", this may help you.

 

Step 1:

• Restart your Router and/or Modem. I have an All-in-One modem. This will give it a fresh boot-up, and should clear everything up. 

 

Step 2:

• Open up your modem/router's gateway in your browser. Normally 192.168.0.1 is what you will enter into your address bar. You can find your gateway, user, and password on the back of your modem/router. If it's not there, you may have to do a little research to find your modems default user and password.

Step 3:

• Once you're in, you want to go to your WAN settings. Every model of modem is different. It'll look something like this.

 

 

Step 4:

• Change your Wireless Channel to 6, or 11. Default is usually 1. I had devices interfering with the default channel, and switched to 6. 
• NOTE: This is for 2.4Ghz setups, and not 5G.

Additionally, some Anti-Virus programs may cause connection issues. Try disabling them to see if that helps. Sometimes, you may have to delete said Anti-Virus program to resolve your issues!

 

Hope this has helped some of you! After 2 hours, I haven't DC'd.

Thanks for taking the time to do this. I hope it helps someone. I've seen a handful of people today having isolated lag issues so let's hope they look to the forums!

I just started an HCIM account so I will keep this topic in mind to prevent exactly that from happening. I know someone just took leave of the game because of this... Very sad.

Wow this is embarrassing... My brain isn't what it used to be. Yes I remember reading your farewell post and seeing you update that your OSRS was hacked... Sorry again to hear that. :/ 

 

Are you at least finding something to get you back in the rhythm over here at Alora?

Epic. I just made a HCIM today, and I see what you mean by enjoying the challenge of it. However, I want to max my regular character first and in the process learn more about the server since I'm so new. I feel like that will help me when I begin as a HCIM and need to hunt everything down myself.

 

Add me in-game either on HC Jewlion or Jewlion! You seem like an awesome dude and I wish you the best of luck with your goals

It's a good idea to learn everything before you start HCIM. That way, you have a basic understanding of what to expect when doing certain activities, bosses, quests, etc.

 

And yeah, I'll add you! If you need help, let me know! I'll answer what i can.
