Community ManagerThanks for the update. I'd like you to power cycle your equipment with the following steps: unplug your modem, router and console. After 2 minutes plug in the modem and router. Let them come back online completely. Then plug in your console and start it up.
Also, try clearing the alternate MAC address with these steps:
Go to your Xbox Settings
Go to "Network", then "Advanced Network Settings"
Click on "Alternate MAC Address", and then click "Clear"
Let me know how it goes. Thank you!
I did was you suggested and still no apex. This time it was booting back to the xbox main screen before I could press A to continue. Missing Apex, any other ideas?

Hello, @BostonGators
Thanks for the update. Let's see if this might help. From the Xbox home screen, go to Settings > Network > Advanced settings > DNS settings > Manual. (If Settings doesn't appear on the home screen, select My Games & Apps, then Settings). From there, enter the Primary DNS as "208.67.222.222" and the Secondary DNS as "208.67.220.220". If that doesn't help, try using the google DNS servers which are: primary alt number 8.8.8.8 - secondary alt number 8.8.4.4.
Hi Aljo,
Still having the same problems even after your last suggestions. I even tried a system wipe and reinstall, no dice. I can even play other games without issue, including other EA titles like Madden. Again not sure the problem. It kicks me sometimes before I can press A to enter the servers, other times I can log in for a few seconds then it closes, and sometimes after pressing A I get the ring that says waiting for precache. And this only started to happen after update on 3/29. Also, thanks for your help so far.

No problem. Glad to help. Or try to at least 🙂 Thanks for sticking with me. Do you have the game installed on an internal or external hard drive? Also, do you have any other devices plugged into the USB ports? If so, unplug them and see if you can get to the main menu.
