-1 ping on Dallas server and can't connect.

Question

I live in Texas and typically play on the Dallas server. But, for the past few days it says -1ping and 100% packet loss and wont let me connect. It forces me in to Iowa servers. Does anyone know if there is a fix for this or have the Dallas servers just been down for that past couple of days?

@i_glade&nbsp;Current status. Looks like a massive outage. Now everyone is flocking to EU servers. And I wondered why I'm suddenly in a pred lobby every game.

@i_glade I'm having the same problem, live in OK and get 8ms ping to dallas but now I'm switched to Iowa servers with 29 ping. Dallas shows -1 ping and 100% packet loss as well.

@i_glade Hello, this is a global thing and as of writing this, Dallas and Sydney servers are down. Which the game will pick the lowest ping server for you.
Until this is resolved on respawns end, this is how you will have to play until further notice.

For about 5 days now the Dallas Data Center has been down and we have all been playing on Iowa GCE 1,2,3, or 4 , when will the Dallas Data Center be back up and running?&nbsp;

@FrankBBoy Same here man, it's definitely been frustrating with the silence from Respawn and EA. after my discussion with EA today I finally found out that it on Respawns side as EA told Me all of their servers were up and functioning properly. Now just to hear back from Respawn
