Game abandonment with no issues on my end?

Hello! I just got auto resigned after being considered 'reconnecting' for 2 minutes, after my opponent took 4 minutes to make a move. I checked my browser cache, very empty, never experienced this until now. My wifi was on at full bars and from what I saw, nothing seemed to wrong. I was wondering if there was a way to communicate to an actual person about this subject?

I have never had that issue but depending on the device and its age try to shut it down give it a few minutes then restart it.

PC has all new parts, finished building it not long ago.
Wi-Fi is about 100+ mb/s, never experienced this issue until now.
Very infuriating loss considering I was up +3.1 according to stockfish.

If the game was auto-resigned the there was a connection issue between your client and the live server.

There are some things you can do to minimize connection issues in your end.
