Help. I can´t play multiplayer in Battlefield 1

Permanently lost connection to EA servers and can`t play BF1 multiplayer anymore no matter what I do I still get "you lost connection to EA servers" msg. Flushed DNS, rebooted modem(using hardwired connection), reinstall Origin, BF1, install new drivers for 980Ti, opened ports. Been playing BF1 since relies and didn`t have any problems. I think I got that msg either after WIN 10 or game update.

Sabertooth Z77 w/i7-3700, 16 gig of RAM

WIN 10 64 bit

GTX 980Ti

battlefield 1

    I did that already and it didn`t work. There is a BF1 Trial icon in BF1 folder, is it supposed to be there? And when I right click on BF1 icon in Origin to check game properties I don`t see game code.

    Hi, I had the same problem since the patch that introduced Nivelle Night as a free map, here's what I did to fix it.

    Have you tried resetting the HOSTS file? also, did you just typed "ipconfig /flushdns"? I did that but it didn't worked, but then typing 4 other commands and rebooting the PC, it fixed the problem

    here's how to reset the HOSTS file:

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/972034/how-to-reset-the-hosts-file-back-to-the-default

    Flush DNS (remember to type all the commands, after resetting "winsock" it'll tell you to reboot the pc):

    https://help.ea.com/en/help/pc/how-to-flush-dns-cache-for-windows/

    and change the settings to both OriginClientService.exe and bf1 to run as administrator.

    I hope this can fix the problem 🙂

    I`ve done all that and it didn`t worked. I don`t have problem w/connection because I can play other games w/out any problems or lag. I think something wrong w/installation of the game but I reinstall game and Origin and still getting same msg.

    I fixed mine... I did what was suggested in post #4, but in addition I went into C/ yada, yada, Origin Games, BF1.exe, and clicked on that. It worked!

    Then I deleted my desktop/tray shortcut and went back into Origin games/ BF1.exe and made a new shortcut.

    I did not do: "and change the settings to both OriginClientService.exe and bf1 to run as administrator.". I forgot, and mine worked without it.

    Hope that works for you all.

    Actually, it came back.

    I put a PCIE modem in and didn't use the on board one and it was fine... for one day.
