Thank you, you've been a huge help. And I mean that, I hope it didn't come across as sarcasm.
Hi, could you please post an update on what the corrective action was that you took to fix this?
I've been a consistent subscriber since Day 1 all those years ago [2011, 2012?] and over the past few weeks, I continue to have this exact same issue. It's funny, it seems to have occurred when the Origin app got retired but I'm not 100% positive on that. Anyway, I'd like to know what to do so I don't have to spend hours on the phone with support who's just going to read through a script.
Thanks!
most connection errors are either firewall based or net routing issues, if a routing issue a VPN would work
in the case of the OP his account was restricted and refused access to the servers
Hey, so I'm having the same problem, I get to the select server part and then it says "a connection error has occurred".
I've tried it with the launcher from the SWOTOR website and the launcher from steam and got the same problem both times.
I'm just wondering how I go about checking if my account is restricted for whatever reason.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
