  • EA recommend starting off by checking that your internet connection is working properly. This involves all the usual tips: switch from WiFi to a wired connection if you can. Turn off other devices and apps that are fighting for bandwidth. Get as close to your router as you can, for the strongest possible signal.
  • It's also important to see whether the servers are working or not. If the servers are down, then you'll need to wait for them to be back online before trying again.
  • You could also consider a VPN. if the issue is a local server problem, a VPN may connect you to a server in a different location that isn't experiencing issues. If you're already using a VPN, try turning it off, to see if connecting to a more local server helps.
