I have tried all fixes for past few weeks. PC only BF1
to get online connection.
Through EA
https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/pc/connection-troubleshooting-advanced-pc/
Tech check, flush DNS, and any other fix I could find online. NOTHING WORKs
Then I 'opened ports' (ding ding ding)
https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/faq/opening-tcp-or-udp-ports-for-connection-issues/
for windows 10 tutorial go here
http://www.thewindowsclub.com/configure-vpn-connection-windows
scroll down to
"Configure Firewall to accept connections"
be careful to not click on other fodder, ads, or nonsense
now add ports from EA help 'opening ports' link above (see see scroll up)
finish by Rebooting computer,
(ports may or may not be solution)
The real trick seems to be, (AhhhHa)
Do not open Origin from Origin desktop Icon (to log in)
*** USE Battlefield 1 DESKTOP ICON ***
right click RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR !!!!
GAME ON
(Starting game from Origin still does not work)
