Can’t connect to dead space 3 servers

I have the online pass for dead space 3 on my Xbox and have the game digital but it won’t connect to the servers. What can I do about this?

    Just by sheer luck, I booted up the game last night and it connected online without me doing any of that.

@unequaledneil I downloaded it this morning and was able to get into all co-op options which means it is still online for players. It would be more of a local issue than a game issue. When you play, are you on a PC or Laptop?

Are you using a wireless connection or are you hardwired into a modem or router?

    @unequaledneil Let me see if I can download it to the console and test it out. Are you connected on WiFi or hardwired?

        @unequaledneil See if the following works for you. I launched it and tried the same and got no error so it is working in the game.

        • Quit all running Apps (For Series X|S consoles)
        • Remove any connected device, or additional USBs from the console then restart the Xbox and check for updates
        • Try the steps in our Connection and Advance Connection Guides
        • Open you're Xbox NAT Type
        • Change DNS settings (You can use the public Google DNS primary: 8.8.8.8, secondary: 8.8.4.4) 

        Persistent Storage

        • Go to settings > Select Device & Connections > Then Blue-Ray
        • Select Persistent Storage > Clear Persistent Storage

        Alternate Mac:

        • Go to settings > Select General  > Then Network settings
        • Go to advanced settings > Alternate Mac address > Select clear
        • Select restart

        If you can, try to use a hardwired connection to test it.
