Server Error 721

Anything Puddle Nails?

Have you been able to connect?

Assume this is still not working for all of these people?

So.. today is the first day I tried to log in in awhile and was hitting error 721... but my internet is fine so I tried again.  Started googling, landed here.  Then it dawned on me.. I have origin installed on my computer because I have several game purchased through the origin store, even though Squadrons is on steam.    So I ran the Origin client and it downloaded an update.   Next time I loaded the game I was able to connect.   So.. PC users, at the very least, update your Origin client, even if you bought the game on steam

Thanks @HeadwarP - have  updated and done the same.

Still 721/1066 errors.

I found a “solution” to this. More a workaround than anything.

Apparently there is a conflict between the connections of a PC SWS and a Console SWS.

For me the ONLY thing that resolved the error was to disable the cross play in the EA Account menu in the game. After that you can go back to the menu and it will connect and keep it stable. If you turn it on after it will crash randomly, more likely after joining a match. If this happens then the only way to go back to connecting is to disable crossplay and restart the game.

Ive already reported this behaviour to EA which simply closed my ticket as FIXED.

OBVIOUSLY ITS NOT. Crossplay is a big part of the MP experience in this game, so having to deny it is outrageous to be considered a “fix”.

To anyone having this issue, I hope this will help you.

To EA, GET YOUR BOYS WORKING SERIOUSLY ON THIS. People are passionate about this saga and is just unbelievable that a company with this size couldn’t realise this problem (and fix) by themselves. Shame on your big and inefficient corporation.

@Watzfuden Yeah, a number of us have tried that already with no dice. ☹️
Thank you for contributing though.

Even when I do that I never get matched and eventually get the 1066 error.

@HeadwarP - tried that this weekend, still won't get around the error.
Tried on both regular and other PC I put together to troubleshoot.

@windch3aterThat's unfortunate. I stumbled across this thread when I started googling and thought it was the same issue, but like I say when I opened the stand alone origin client and allowed it to update, logged in then closed it I was able to connect with the steam version again. Sorry it didnt help.

@HeadwarP 

Yep, appreciate the data though, thanks!

I've been running steam and origin side by side but unfortunately, that hasn't solved the 721 and 1066 errors and EA hasn't responded to the "issue" that was opened in January. ☹️
