I’ve been struggling with connecting to their servers no matter what I’ve tried on PC. I’ve tried disabling my firewall on my pc, disabling ipv6 on my network settings, resetting network settings, resetting my pc firewall settings, ipconfig commands, netsh interface. I called my isp (verizon) and they told me to disconnect my linksys router from the modem and connect to the game only using my modem with ethernet and this actually worked so they deduced it to my linksys EA7430 router being the issue. So I contact linksys tech support and they guide me through setting up port forwarding with my router and it works for the first time they are setup, I think everything is fine but it was only temporary. I wait a couple hours later with nothing changed and I cannot connect to the servers again. I’m completely lost on what to do

    This might sound silly but do you have a reserved IP for your PC or does it grab the next available one? If it worked before for a bit it leads me to believe you set up port forwarding to the PC IP address. The PC then disconnected or got turned off and another device grabbed that IP address. So port forwarding is now set to the other device. Make sure you’re defining the IP for your PC on your router so this doesn’t happen.

    Enabling upnp is another option that should work as well.

      Okay so I went to check my ipv4 address and compared to what I had in my port forwarding list and it was different. After I checked my dhcp reservation list and found my pc wasn’t on the list so I added it. Also turned on upnp, you reminded me that this was on originally but when I was trying to solve this from searching through Reddit I turned it off. Thank you for your help, it allowed me to login now after restarting my router. I’m just now scared that this issue will just pop up again tomorrow. You are the goat!
