After the most recent Battlefield 3 PC patch, some players have reported being unable to play Battlefield 3 online at all as they receive the PunkBuster error below:

To resolve this issue, follow the steps below:

  1. Download and install the PBSVC program from http://www.evenbalance.com/downloads/pbsvc/pbsvc.exe
  2. Open the program and Uninstall PunkBuster
    1. This will clear any older versions of PunkBuster that may be experiencing an issue
  3. After uninstalling the program, download and run PBSetup from http://evenbalance.com/index.php?page=pbsetup.php
  4. Once downloaded, open PBSetup and select Add a Game and add Battlefield 3 from the available list.
  5. After adding Battlefield 3, click Check for Updates until you receive a message stating No New Updates Needed.
    • This may take several updates depending on the game and version of PunkBuster.

Read this if you are experiencing connection issues

We are aware that some Battlefield 3 players are experiencing connection issues with PunkBuster enabled servers.

This problem is limited to a small subset of players on PC and will not impact players on PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360.

We are actively looking into the specifics of this issue and we are confident that we will have a permanent solution in place shortly.

In the meantime, if your connectivity has been affected, we recommend that in the interim you join servers that are not running PunkBuster. There is a filter setting for this in the multiplayer server browser.

Thank you for your patience.

Hans that news topic from EA is about 2 weeks old.  That was fixed a while back.  Remember when Coolmd and Rockape couldn't connect?  It was related to that, not if you are only just getting it.
