What I've learned about the major AT&T issue.
Hello everyone, I'm currently trying to unearth the truth about what the issue is with the ongoing EA - AT&T issue. After being re-routed several times to higher and higher representatives, it has...
Forum Discussion
@pasghettisquash At this point I just want a confirmation that AT&T and EA are currently working together to fix this as soon as possible.
Crazy that they can say it isn't patch related. Maybe it isn't, but after it happening for the 3rd times (NHL 23 in July immediately post-patch, Battlefield2024 in July immediately post patch and now with NHL 24 immediately post patch), I don't think AT&T would agree this is "all their fault" as the mods have said.

Update for today, going to make this a detailed memoir in the unlikely event a mod cares.
- Played today at 4:30pm EST and had to wait 5min loading into WOC.
-Played three games with no errors but heavy lag getting back to dressing room
-Currently playing at 9:42pm EST waiting to load into WOC, it’s been 12min and counting.
9:49pm: This is where the bar has been stuck since the first 30 seconds.
9:50pm: After 20min I’m going to restart everything
9:53pm: Back to the load screen.
9:55pm: Can see my character and is at “checking”, 9:57pm I can now select a game mode
9:57pm: Clicked to play 3s and got this error:
9:58pm: Back loading into WOC.
10:00pm: I see my character stuck on “checking”.
10:02pm: Screen loaded and clicked to play ones. Ready button never loaded but matchmaking.
10:05pm: In game
10:16pm: End
I’m not a tech guy by any means but here’s what I’m wondering. Does EA have an issue with the heightened upload speeds (or something speed related) of AT&T fiber so when more people are playing ie at 9:30pm instead of 4:30pm the servers can’t handle it? At least in my area of Michigan every other internet provider is going to have substantially slower upload speeds compared to AT&T. Who knows but it’s annoying.
- @Raiden7895 @EA_Kent This is every night same times and I'm in Louisiana it's has to be an issue with load balancing or a server between AT&T and EA
And here we go again…
8:00pm EST: Tried to open WOC and got this error 3 times.
8:04pm: Happened again. Going to restart the box of X.
8:11pm: Loaded into WOC.8:15pm: Matchmaking 3s.
8:17pm: In 3s.
Different error at the start than I saw in the last two days.
- @Raiden7895 At this point it's going to take a damn law suit to get any action going.
- @Raiden7895 Yup same here just loaded up for a league match was in a game just fine at 7pm and then 8pm bam quits working same * every night it's old af!
Same for me in Florida. It's completely ridiculous that EA is just ignoring this.
