Hello,
Since today, I have been getting repeated WEASEL errors in Destiny 2.
The error happens while playing, after about 5 minutes, and then I am sent back to the title screen.
I have already done several network checks to rule out a local issue:
I am using a wired Ethernet connection, not Wi-Fi.
My network adapter is detected correctly at 1 Gbps.
Wi-Fi is disconnected/disabled.
No other service disconnects at the same time:
Discord stays connected.
Steam does not go offline.
Other games do not seem to have any issue.
Pings to external servers remain stable during testing, with no visible packet loss.
Connection test to bungie.net is successful.
Traceroute to bungie.net works.
TCP test to the Destiny server used by the game on port 7500 is successful.
Destiny 2 does establish an active network connection before the WEASEL error happens.
I temporarily disabled IPv6 as a test, but it made no difference: WEASEL errors still happen.
I am not using a VPN.
The issue seems specific to Destiny 2.
This behavior looks more like a Destiny/Bungie session drop rather than a general internet disconnection.
I am not looking for a generic answer like “check your Wi-Fi”, because I am already on Ethernet and my network tests look stable. I would mainly like to know if this is a known issue or if other players are currently experiencing similar WEASEL errors since today or since the latest update.
Thanks in advance.

Just want to add that I am having exactly the same experience. It's usually 5-10 minutes into an activity and I get booted back to the title screen. I too have went through all the help guides bungie has and have tried adjusting every setting on my own network. I have 1GB fiber with excellent ping and 0 packet loss. All other games I have no problem, just destiny. The June 9 update has made the issue 100x worse. I don't think bungie considers it a known issue because they just blame the user's network and point to the guides. All someone has to do is search this forum for error codes and see a huge increase in posts after June 9 update.
