Hi @AK74x770,
There are some things we can try which may help with the error you've been seeing.
First, can you try running through the basic connectivity troubleshooting steps from the EA Help website to see how that goes? If you're still having any trouble after that please let me know. Thanks!
Tired all applicable steps still no solution. While having highly anticipating the release of this game and money spent I hope you and your team can track this down for us

Thanks for giving it a shot!
Can we also try setting a different DNS on your Xbox to see if that makes any difference? You can change the DNS using the steps below:
1. Open your Xbox Settings2. Select All Settings
3. Select Network
4. Select Advanced Settings
5. Select Change DNS Settings
6. Choose Manual
7. Enter 8.8.8.8 as the Primary DNS and 8.8.4.4 as the Secondary DNS. This is the public Google DNS, but I've heard a few people say that using the public Cloudflare DNS can also help (Primary DNS: 1.1.1.1).
8. Save the changes
Let me know if you're still running into any connection errors after that. Thanks!
While I an now able to log in for short periods of time. I am 100% positive it is not an issue on my end I have tested everything on multiple consoles to include different a ISP if I dont get the code in the start of the thread I receive numerous others see attached

I'm in the same position. Kind of random but have you used a different router and modem when you changed ISP? Strangely enough, whenever I try to Port Forward (which breaks my router for whatever reason) I do get a different error code.
I’m getting this same error. But it only seems to be with my profile. When I switch to another profile on the same console it plays no problem. Maybe it’s an account issue or ea account issue?!? Not something with the game application or the servers.
Here is a DxDiag ran after a clean boot

Hi @XxItsYaBoyJrxX,
There aren't any bans or restrictions on that specific account, right?
What has been happening when you port forward your router? Is it just not connecting to the internet at all?
