I tried to look solution for my problem but I couldn't find nothing..

My problem is bit tricky.. I can stream only 10-30 min and then my bitrate and frames start to drop.. Problem started this weekend. I'm using Stockholm servers. I also tried Amsterdam, London and Dallas servers but it didn't help... I also tested my connection speed and it's great as you can see at the picture:

This is more likely a problem with your connection than any settings. You appear to be using some kind of 4G / Wimax / wireless connection dongle, which doesn't have the same reliability as a wired connection.
 
I'm using 3G mobile connection. I have streamed almost a week with this setup, so why there wasn't any problems before this weekend? I streamed from 1 hours to 2 hours every time almost every day so I'm pretty sure it is reliability. It's wired directly to usb port and I'm the only one who's using it. I just can't understand how it could be connection issue.

And there is speedtest result which I did after obs started to drop frames. It's slower than previously because the signal is bit weaker, but that should be still enough for streaming...

I think that I almost solved my problem. It's still dropping frames but only 0.60% in 5 minutes. I just changed maximum bitrate to 2200, checked the optional buffer size and changed it to 1800.
 
well try a 1500 bitrate and see how this goes for you since a wireless connection tends to be really unstable
 
I'm not using wireless connection like I said earlier. I didn't solve the problem. It started to drop tons of frames again.. I also tried dropping the resolution to 480p and bitrate to 1200. Same problem.
 
I just streamed CS:GO with 720p resolution and 1800 bitrate like 15 min. 0% dropped frames until I closed the game. Almost instantly started to drop frames.. Closed stream, made speedtest and got 3m upload as result. What the f**k is happening???
Btw. I was using Amsterdam server. I'm pretty sure that it's not my connection! Plz help me. I wan't to stream :)
 
Untick the "automatic low latency mode" box that you have ticked in advanced settings or disable "Minimize network impact" entirely.
 
I disabled the CFR and it's not dropping frames anymore. I tested it with Far Cry 3 and the game lags sometimes, but when I watched it from twitch after I stopped streaming I realized that stream is not lagging.
 
It's working again. Streamed like 4:30h yesterday and dropped about 40 frames at that time. Viewers said that it didn't lag at all. I think that there was rush at the weekend in the servers.
