I would say this is a net issue there is a 208 thread at this link , in which case may need to wait 24 hours and check again this will come good on its own just when is unknown

I am also in Northern California, and also use Spectrum internet. I was able to play the game just fine last night, but cannot log in this morning, with the same 208 issue.

It seems likely that this is a west coast issue, or a Spectrum specific issue.

Been having the same issue since last night. Was able to log on earlier yesterday, but since last night have been having 208 error as well. Been on the phone twice this morning with tech support, have gone through all their workarounds and fixes, but no help. Seeing that I'm in Southern Oregon, and others in my area are having the same issue. It must be a Spectrum problem. Tech support did provide some TCP Port and range numbers and said I needed to call my internet provider and have them open these for better connectivity, but have been unable to find a tech support number for Spectrum. Very frustrating!

I'm on the "Heart of the Oregon Coast" as it reads on our road signs and have Spectrum ISP and I've had this problem since last night around 20:00 PDT. Still giving me a blue circle of death on the "Log In" screen.
