Hey everyone!
Thanks for all your traceroute results and additional reports. I've passed those on to the team.
It looks like most of the different 1:86001S error codes are network, ISP, or system related.
We've just published a troubleshooting guide that might possibly help with your issues as well. Please give that a shot and let us know how you get on!
Hey folks,
I’m still getting error 1:86001S on PC and I’m out of ideas. We literally went through every single step from the official guide here in this thread — router setup, UPnP, ports, static IP, firewall, EA App cache, DNS reset, everything.
Important: I played the Battlefield 6 beta on the exact same setup and it worked flawlessly. So it feels like something changed on the live build / backend.
Here’s what we’ve already tried (so nobody repeats the same suggestions again 😅):
- Restart router & PC
- Wired Ethernet connection
- No VPN / proxy
- Network set to Private
- UPnP enabled (EA tunnel actually shows up in router)
- Static IP reservation
- Port forwarding (80/443/9000 TCP + 53/9999 UDP)
and also tested with ports removed + UPnP only
- Router reboot after changes
- Windows Firewall: BF6 & EA allowed on Private + Public
- Ran EA App and BF6 as admin
- Cleared EA App cache + App Recovery
- Verified game files
- Disabled extra network adapters
- Flushed DNS / Winsock reset
And yeah — still getting 1:86001S.
Since beta worked fine on the same system & network, I’m guessing this might be a server/backend issue introduced post-launch rather than user-side config.
