Login failed due to Security Key

Dear EA/Bioware,

I have tried multiple times to log into the game Star Wars: The Old Republic. I am unable to do so due to the login not accepting my security key number that I input into the Security Key field.

I can't login to the website either. I have the physical security key version not the app version. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Sincerely,

StarWarsfan86

    You can try to remove and then re-add the same key again per the instructions to see if it resolves the issue.

    Also the physical keys haven't been produced in 5 or 6 years so a possibility is that your physical key battery is dying and is causing it to not sync properly.

    I would try to remove and then re-add the key per the article linked and see if it resolves the issue.  If it doesn't or you cannot add it back,it may be a battery issue and you would need to switch to the app since the physical key battery cannot be replaced.

    Thank you for the reply. I haven't tried removing the key via the removal directions. I still want to use the key.

    Thank you for a solution. However, I tried it and I couldn't add it again.

    Sorry for taking so long to reply. Yes I was able to get and use the mobile app. The issue is solved. Thank you again for you and the other guy's help.
