For me too. It stops and starts with horrible download speeds then just stops with no pause or resume button. Sometimes I get an error message too.

I’m in the UK. I’ve tried:

- 2x different Macs (Intel and silicon), both running Ventura

- disabling all ad-blocking

- hotspotting off my phone

- home ISP

- running Origin reset tool

Nothing is working. Before disabling my pi-hole this domain was popping up when the connection would temporarily activate:

ssl-lvlt.cdn.ea.com

it wasn’t blocked.

Console is showing this over and over again:

I have the same experience. I was talking with players in US, and they don't, but I am in Europe and I wonder if it can be related to the European servers
