You can have a connection issue to the site and see no obvious connection issue to your local router/ISP.

Your connection to your wifi network has minimal relevance to your internet connection to the chess.com server. I mean, if your wifi is bad, then yeah you're not going to connect -- but if your wifi is solid, it doesn't guarantee that the path from you to the chess.com server is intact.
Are you connecting from Poland? ... Imagine all of the relays between you and chess.com's servers. Per a quick lookup of chess.com's webserver, hosted by google cloud, presumably that server is physically located in the USA (searching the IP address seems to give a location of St Louis, but I dont know if that's accurate or not)... There's a lot that can go wrong when connecting from halfway around the world.
There's a lot that can go wrong when connecting from within the USA, even. Lots of little failure points in the connection.

Can you stop posting trash like this, really not funny
Hi again, today about smth diffrent. So basically I was just playing rapid to get 1000. I had an equal position and all of the sudden chess.com informs me that I'm being reconnected. I checked my connection with Wi-Fi, it was perfect. I turned on facebook and it worked perfectly. Then I checked it on my phone, still perfect connection with Wi-Fi. I quickly reloaded the page and I "got resigned". (all of my checking took around 10 seconds) I just want to know what happened because asking for elo back is ridiculous and what can I do to get back into the game if it happens again.
