Question / Help Disconnected from Server (Streaming to Twitch)

[MaestroCS]

Hi guys, this is my first post on the forum lol. So I really want to stream on Twitch for a few friends and just to interact with people and play some games. But when using OBS I keep getting an error where I get disconnected from the server; but then reconnected in 10 seconds time. When this happens, the stream time count on OBS resets and it's like I've just started streaming again. This is really annoying as it shows my offline screen for a solid 10 seconds, so people think I've ended the stream lol. Let me just clear something up though, I can stream to Youtube fine, it only seems to be a problem when streaming to Twitch.

Things I've done to try and fix this:
- I've switched servers multiple times.
- I've reset my stream key multiple times.
- I've tried to stream to Youtube and it has worked, must be a problem with Twitch.

Here's my log. It was too big for the topic so I'll leave the link.

Your connection to the Twitch server is unstable. This isn't an OBS issue, it's a connection to server issue. Try another one (or download the Twitch Bandwidth Tester from Teamliquid and use that to find one with 80+ Quality).

Also, DON'T stream over Wifi. It's not meant for constant throughput minimum-rate-critical applications. Use a network cable.

Thanks for the help Ferret. I'll test the servers and get back to you. Thanks again <3

EDIT: I ran a 6 minute test stream and it stayed up for the whole time. It disconnected me after like 2 minutes before. I think it's all fine now, thanks for the help :)

Well I have more problems again now. I downloaded and ran the Server Checker thing you linked me but I still get the Disconnected from Server problem. This time it's coming up a lot faster and a lot more regular. Not quite sure what to do from here.
