Failed to retrieve data

Failed to retrieve data, for over a month. Used to work after a router/console reset a MONTH ago but not anymore. I've attempted to tweet at ea support on Twitter and got no response. I've done EVERYTHING In my knowledge I can do to fix it; hard reset, router reset, DMZ, port forwarding, MAC address clear on xbox, reinstalled game, is there ANY other solution? This is getting ridiculous. I can only play eashl and every other game works just fine only NHL has this issue. Edit : my nat type is also open, I'm on Ethernet, Rogers, hitron.

    Hello! This is Blake [Edit - Admin.] I see that you are having an issue with connecting to opponents in NHL 17.

    I know it can be quite frustrating dealing with connection issues as I am a gamer myself. I promise that I will do my very best to assist with this problem.

    Is this issue still occurring or has the issue alleviated itself?

    *If not, please make sure that you are on a WIRED connection and not wireless

    Also try these steps:
    CLEAR ALTERNATE MAC ADDRESS

    1. Go to Settings > Network Settings > Advanced Settings > Alternative Mac Address > Clear
    2. After this shut down the console, disconnect the power cord from the back of the Xbox One and wait two minutes.
    3. Once the two minutes have passed, plug the power back in and wait for the power bricks light to go from White to Orange.
    4. Once the brick is Orange, start your console.

    DELETE CLOUD SAVES

    1. On Home, pull the right trigger, and then press A to open My games and apps.
    2. Highlight the game, press the Menu button on your controller, and then select Manage game.
    3. Scroll to the right, highlight the saved data for your gamertag under Saved Data, and then press A on your controller.
    4. Choose Delete everywhere.
    5. Restart Console

    CLEAR PERSISTENT STORAGE AND POWERCYCLE XBOX ONE

    If console is wired connected, remove Ethernet cable. If console is wireless, Go to Settings > Network > Select their Network > Disconnect.

    Once it is back on, press Menu button > Settings > Blu Ray & Disc > Persistent Storage > Clear Persistent Storage three times.

    Follow these steps to power cycle your Xbox One Console:
    1. While the console is on, press and hold the console's Xbox button for 5 seconds.
    2. The console will power down.
    3. Wait 30 seconds, and then turn your console back on by again pressing the Xbox button.

    8. Select the Adult defaults.
    9. Toggle back to Child defaults and then finally back to Adult defaults once more.
    10. Powercyle the console to complete the troubleshooting.

    REMOVING GAMERTAG

    7. Review the privacy statement summary, and then select Next.
    8. Select your Sign-in and security preferences.
    9. Check out how you look on Xbox, and then select Next.
    10. Choose your colour, and then select Next.
    Note: The preference that you're currently using at home appears with a checked box.

    Seem like the only way I can play NHL17 online is if I use wifi.... it used to work before while connected through the ethernet cable. Not sure why it would stop all of a sudden. All my other games work perfectly while connected with ethernet. This is really annoying.

    @LiquidNit3

    1-you can goto BELL....

    2- try a third party router and put the hiltron in bridge mode

    3-you could try wireless ...it may work

    it is the router!

  • Same issue. Same router. Apparently it's an ipv6 issue. Rogers is one of the only company's using it.....so we can't play anyone who doesn't have it. It's ridiculous.
