Some people can't play coop/pvp because of the timeouts. This can happen because your upload speed isn't fast enough to upload the data to the server so the game counts this as a timeout. I fixed this problem by downloading netlimiter and putting the game priority as critical and changing the critical priority bandwidth reserves to 90% minimal bandwidth and 100% maximal bandwidth which allowed a fixed percentage for the game to use which increased the upload speed.also some people fixed this by enabling DMZ and UPNP (those should be used as a last resort as they come with a big risk of reducing your firewall)

Reminder: if you are on the same lan network (ie. in the same house), you MUST set your launcher to LAN in order to play with others.

It will ALWAYS time out if you do not have this set.

Sadly, this does mean you and your roommate cannot play with your friend online.

this maybe temporary
 
I used to have a similar issue a lot with my old phone. I think this happened because my phone was overheating and couldn't handle the game anymore. Since I upgraded my phone this never happened again. Basically, out of 6 PvP duels today 4 battles were in "auto-mode", I was disconnected and could only watch the replays of those battles .Soooo annoying. And the support annoys me even more, asking to send a screenshot.
 
If it's dropping out of actual games or attempts to start them, it'll be between you and the other player, rather than the Celeste server itself, If it's not letting you log in, or disconnecting while in cities then it's between you and the server. Not sure of the IP though, sorry
