Re: Connection to Server Timed Out - Xbox

@Jsup115 

I know crashes can be irritating to experience, but we should be able to fix this for you. Can you let me know if it's still happening after these steps?

Xbox One:

Power Cycle the Console

  1. Turn off the Xbox One console by pressing the Xbox button on the front of the console for about 10 seconds until it shuts down completely.
  2. Unplug the console's power cable. Wait 10 seconds.

Important Be sure to wait 10 seconds. This step resets the power supply.

  1. Plug the console power cable back in.
  2. Press the Xbox button on your console to turn on the Xbox One.

Clear Mac Address

  1. Clear the MAC Address: From the Xbox dashboard select Settings>All Settings>Network>Network Settings>Advanced Settings>Alternate MAC address>Clear, then restart your Xbox.

Reboot the Network

  1. Unplug the modem/router power for about 5 minutes to refresh the network. A fresh connection can help clear up most basic connectivity issues.

    Try setting the DNS manually to the Google one (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4). That has been helping others with similar connection issues.

    That can be found under your Xbox Network Settings.

    After reading the comments i was skeptical at first but then i followed what the instructions said and it surprisingly worked. Apex runs fine now. Finally after being disconnected 20 times a day -_-

  • This is still happening to me dude. APEX SUCKS. Is not my console or my network because it only happens with this game.  I hate it specially when you playing ranked.

Its not our network becasue every other game works fine and I dont get kicked out or my game freezes when Playing COD like it happens during Apex
