Can’t connect to EA servers Error code 1:86001S:66003S:4688822970:0B

Question

Hello,I purchased Battlefield 6 on Steam, but when I launch it, I get the following error message:Unable to connect to EA servers – Error code 1:86001S:66003S:4688822970:0B.I’ve already tried verifying the game files, clearing EA App cache, repairing and reinstalling the EA App, and restarting the EA Background Service (Javelin).&nbsp;None of these steps fixed the problem.Interestingly, if I install Battlefield 6 directly from the EA App, the game connects fine — but that version doesn’t detect my paid Steam license.&nbsp;This makes me think my Steam and EA accounts may not be linking correctly, or my EA Javelin authentication token is broken.Could you please help me by checking or resetting my Steam–EA account link, and/or refreshing my Javelin authentication data?Thank you very much for your help!

Try changing your DNS according to this post. It worked for me!

[FIX] .Connection error: 1:86001S:66003S:4688822970:0B | EA Forums - 12797804

Alternatively, installing and using the free CloudflareWARP vpn (no latency issue).

According to an AI answer:"Error code 1:86001S:66003S:4688822970:0B in Battlefield 6 typically indicates issues with account authentication or network connectivity. To resolve it, try logging out and back into the EA app, verifying your game files, and ensuring no VPNs or firewalls are interfering with the connection."That said, I believe this is the same error I had early in the game.&nbsp; My wi-fi had connection issues, so i updated and rebooted my router. (Then I got this error)For me it was fixed after I restarted my PC.&nbsp;&nbsp;Before that I verified my files and restarted steam, both didnt help.Hope this helps&nbsp;&nbsp;
