Character dies on server restart/server crash/client crash

[bertone 5]

Hello,

I came back to dayz yesterday after a couple of months break. Now I'm having an issue that keeps me from playing.

So im playing on experimental and joined DE06 HC yesterday. I noticed the server crashing every 30mins-1 hour or so, and the first time I only had a minor rollback. The next time the server crashed, my character was reset and I found myself back on the beach. I thought I had died from zombies while the server was redchained, but then it happened again on the next 2 restarts.
 

Later I met up with my brother and went to Novy. While looting a barn my client crashed. While my screen was frozen, my brother told me that my character was standing immobile. So I restarted the game and while loading my character died before my brothers eyes.

 

It was pretty obvious by now that my characters just won't save. I've tested more today, logging in as fresh spawn and alt+f4'ing = character dead.

 

Anyone know what the issue might be and how I can fix it?

EDIT: I've tried multiple servers, and I'm having the same problem on all of them

Disableing my firewall seemed to fix it, although dayz was in the exceptions list from before.
