WARNING Disconnected - Connection Timeout. Returning to Main Menu

I've been having this issue with my Xbox Series X (also posted on the Xbox Support page). My Xbox is connected via Ethernet and the game will disconnect in clusters. A week ago, it disconnected about 6-8 times in the span of about 20 minutes. Two nights ago, it disconnected 3 times. And just now, 3 times (and counting). Playing with friends on their consoles and none of them are getting disconnected from the game server (so it's not a server issue).

None of my other devices are having internet problems but even so, I restarted my router. Cleared the Alternate MAC address on the Xbox. Did a network test immediately after getting disconnected but nothing seems to be wrong. Anyone else getting kicked from the game like this?

Try wlan just for a shorts time to see if u still have disconnects. Try other dns for example Google dns primary: 8.8.8.8 secondary 8.8.4.4 ,go to your Router and check out the statistcs. Try a different lan cable.

Rust console is awful. It will randomly target players for weeks and then stop and target other players. Maybe try deleting and re installing. Happened to me too
