Why Am I Getting Banned?

Everytime I play a match with my friend, I get kicked. It says that my console lost connection to the game.
I don’t understand this problem and it’s bugging me alot! VERY OFTEN I get kicked from a game and then, the message comes.
THE BANHAMMER HAS STRUCK. It says that I’m banned for the next day and its just very annoying because i get it ALL of the time!

If you know why this is happening, please help!
Thanks :slight_smile:

Check your connection. Make sure you are using a wired connection and not wireless. Also make sure your Nat type is set to Open… When you lose connection that counts as a DNF. DNF = Banhammer…
