Recurring "Unable to connect to EA servers" disconnects in FC 27 Ultimate Team

Platform: PC (Steam)

Game mode affected: Ultimate Team (Rivals, Squad Battles)

Issue: I'm repeatedly disconnected from EA servers while playing FC 27 Ultimate Team, with the error "Unable to connect to the EA servers. Please check your Internet connection, make sure the Platform Client is online and try again." This is not caused by my local connection.

Troubleshooting already completed, with no change to the issue:

  • Reinstalled the game and the EA app fully
  • Ran both as administrator
  • Cleared EA app cache
  • Confirmed Secure Boot and TPM 2.0 are enabled
  • Flushed DNS and set DNS to Google (8.8.8.8 / 8.8.4.4)
  • Reset Winsock and Windows IP stack
  • Disabled IPv6
  • Enabled UPnP on my router (Huawei OptiXstar HG8145X6-10)
  • Switched Windows network profile from Public to Private
  • Confirmed no VPN is active
  • Confirmed no other device is logged into my EA account

Note: My PC is not near the router, so I cannot test with a wired Ethernet connection. I am on Wi-Fi.

Key finding: the disconnect also occurs while completely idle in the FUT main menu (not playing a match), producing the identical error message. This points to a session/token issue on EA's side rather than a local network or hardware problem.

    Same thing is happening to me. Very annoying. I am hard wired to my network and still happens about 30% of the time.

    Got the same problem, don't know what to do because I already tried other games that use EA servers such as Apex and they worked just fine. FC is the only game with this issue.

    I have the same problem, FC 27 is the only game that it happens in. I have done all the fixes they've recommended. I've tried to post clips of my game disconnecting in different scenarios but the forum system marks my post as spam so it doesn't get put on the forum. Do you also have this happen in these scenarios? - submitting a gallery squad, adding a player to a squad while I'm trying to play a match, disconnecting at the end of a match, disconnecting in the middle of a match, disconnecting when sending players to my club after opening a pack, etc. 

    I'm hardwired to my modem, multi gig internet, only person on the internet in the house at times when this happens, match quality report says I'm 99/100. I just don't understand what else to do.
