Re: Mass Effect 3 Servers to play in multiplayer will be available until ...?

@Ezio1814

As @mcsupersport mentioned, the ME3 servers are up and running.

The problem is in your network, at your ISP or at your account.

Restart your router in this way:
Pull the power plug > wait 5 minutes > return the power plug

If that not helps, shut down your Windows firewall and disable the real-time scanner of your antivirus software.. (just for testing purpose, don't forget to activate the firewall and the antivirus software later on.)

Should it work after you disabled the firewall, here is a description how to allow a program to communicate through the firewall.

This ports must be open on your Router:

Origin Ports
TCP: 80; 443; 9960-9969; 1024-1124; 3216; 18000; 18120; 18060; 27900; 28910; 29900
UDP: 1024-1124; 18000; 29900
Me3 Port
Port 3659

Clearing your DNS cache. or testing a google DNS could also help.

If that not helps here is a EA connection troubleshooting guide.

    Ok let me update you guys, again im just at regular gamer.  i played the hell out of the ME3 multiplayer back in the day 2012 to 2014-15 or so on my xbox 360 cuz at start in 2014 there were issues playing it on an xbox one.  Just 2 weeks ago in May 2023 i reactivated my EA account, downloaded all of my old 360 content and put the disk into my xbox series X.  The multiplayer servers for ME3 are STILL active which is unbelieveable!  ive been playing for those passed 2 weeks.  I have no idea how long this will last but there are a bunch of people still playing, its not uncommon to get a full team of even randoms together.  Just wanted to make a note just in case people thought the servers have been gone for the last 5 years. they most certianly havent.  I wish i knew when the servers were going offline so i could play as much as possible until then.  i might just do it anyway......
