kicked due to keepalive timeout

My friend is very laggy when he enters the server, frequently being kicked out with a message on server output log as "kicked due to keepalive timeout", what does it mean? His connection is good on everything else

Then his connection to other things is likely not as good as he thinks.

i dont have that issue at all, i just changed to spigot from paper and it seems to have worked kind off, but he still had a bit of lag at the start when he logged he has like 20 ping on vc so i dont think so

I'm not sure why you'd go from a good server platform to a not good server platform 20 ping to another service means absolutely nothing to me

Paper is good. Spigot is not. Paper is a fork of spigot

If you have 4 people playing on the server and only 1 gets kicked Who's end is most likely to be the cause?

Could be a isp routing issue to ur servers location From wherever ur friend is
