  1. 1Restart your router and relaunch the game launcher.
  2. 2Sign out and back into the correct account.
  3. 3Clear the launcher cache if the problem repeats.
  4. 4Add the launcher and game to your firewall or security software allow-list.
  5. 5Repair the game files before reinstalling everything.

Best next step
