Hi, I have just returned to Star Conflict having tried it a while ago and not gotten deeply into the game. Was really enjoying it, until today when I suddenly started getting connection errors which tell me I was unable to connect into the battle (PvP, PvE or Co-Op… happened with them all). My ships are all tied up “in battle” but I cannot seem to connect, even if I try repeatedly. The ships eventually return after battle completes (maybe I am disconnected throughout the whole battle which is bad for the other players) but I get no synergy or rewards (obviously) and cannot play in the meantime.
Internet connection is fine (I am typing this whilst I am “unable to connect” in game). Game can be restarted and connects immediately (so internet is working and can connect to game server) but ships are shown as “in battle” till that ends.
Looking at forum, this seems to be a common problem, but I am wondering whether this relates to recent Internet issues or is this a know problem in game which I have not come across until today? Has basically stopped me playing as I spend more time waiting for ships to come back than playing (not a good use of Premium license time, that’s for sure).
As requested by Gaijin support, I have raised this in this forum. Shown below are the network trace results as requested. I have removed my IP and DNS address (replaced them with <words>).
Worth noting that IF I get into the fight (PvP, PvE, Co-op, Special Ops), I am fine throughout the fight. Also, I also get the connection error when changing sectors in Open Space (going through a Jump Gate).

What should I do next?
This problem only arose today (I have had a couple of weeks with no such error).
