Game Diisrupting Internet Connection

For some reason when I start up the game it actually interferes with my computers internet connection! If I'm lucky its just slowed some but most of the time I can't actually play the game because as soon as I start the game my internet cuts out.

Now I know its not my internet provider in my area being down as the other computers in my house work fine the whole time I'm having problems. Also I ONLY have problems when the game is active, as soon as I close it my internet is back to normal and its not that it just slows down I actually lose my internet connection completely.

Now this doesn't happen all the time but it happens enough, about 6 of out 10 times, thats its become annoying.

Now I've already made exceptions for the game in my firewall and i've opened the ports that I was instructed to on my router but the problem still persists. In fact I'm wrighting this because right now I'm unable to play the game!
