Internet speed is pointless if it's unstable, there's something constantly making it go to super slow speed that does that most likely, check what's using it and if it's not on your end contact your ISP.

I personally have stability issues as well, The connection I have isn't the best. Ontop of having my computer, several phones, and a TV using the internet in the household.

For reference when I'm home alone the connection is almost pristine, no real issues whatsoever besides a slow connection, But when mi madre is at home and watching TV I can get random disconnects from the session and whatnot

So if there's anything major, like a TV. try eliminating that from the equation. Otherwise if it's JUST your pc using the internet. I don't have much to really suggest. Though there's a program (free) that you can try using to see if there's a program using up your bandwidth called GlassWire. https://www.glasswire.com/

Speed test won't show you fluctuations, it will show you the speed at that exact moment.

Yea, idk what the deal with Red Dead is. but I can agree with you that it's only Red Dead that does it. any other game I play will be fine. but the moment I load Red Dead my whole computer just loses internet connection every now and then.

If it's not the game, not your internet isp, router, mtu setting, or your pc's fault.
It's probably a modder kicking you. Just sayin'.
Some ISP's will actually drop some connections if the port shows some type of certain stats.
I recommend running ccleaner and be sure clear DNS Cache is selected and try this over again. Good luck.

Any luck fixing this problem? Facing the same issue, and tried almost every fix on the internet! xD Except...

Ty DevJB I've not tried changing DNS going to change and clear it tomorrow, too exhausted after trying everything. xD

I have good internet, and this happens to me a lot, but only in this game. I suspect either some kind of player using hacks can do this, or rockstar just has trash servers. (why not both?)

I used to have massive problems with this error. I would be getting disconnected like every 10-20 minutes, and I tried multiple things people have posted about. The only thing that has worked for me is to use a VPN. I started using ProtonVPN and I haven't had any disconnects since.
