Hi again everyone,
I understand it's frustrating not being able to access the Gallery, but without having more information, investigating what could be causing this is very difficult. Please, follow the instructions in this post: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-PC/The-Gallery-cannot-log-in/m-p/8748024#M166541
@LyuKefan thanks for answering the questions. 🙂 We are looking for individual examples though, would you be able to give us the details for yourself, please? What platform are you on? What internet provider do you have? Do you remember of a date and time when you tried to connect?
Also, have you tried following the connection troubleshooting steps?
Thanks!

Hi there,
besides the information that I have provided to your colleague @SimQARobo here are information regarding my internet connection:
Platform (PC / Mac / Xbox One / PlayStation 4): PC
Country: Mainland China
Internet provider (ISP): China Unicom (Liaoning Province Network also known as 'CHINA UNICOM China169 Backbone')
I also tried connecting through 2 different hotspots using my mobile phone but it didn't work (also China Unicom and China Mobile)
Origin version (you can find this from the Origin top menu, under Help > About): 10.5.63.37653 - 758549
Date and time when you tried to connect (please, include the timezone): Continuously since the end of January
Are you using a VPN?: No
What I've tried so far:
- Cleared Sims4 cache
- Removed Mods
- Reinstalled Origin
- Running Origin as admin
- Repairing the game
- Clean boot & disabling antivirus and firewall
- Connecting to different network (mobile hotspots)
- Reinstalling the game with all DLCs
- Opened a ticked (#55964069) with EA Help on Feb 7th. We couldn't resolve the problem together.
- Running UOTrace (there were 100% lost packets in some places) according to https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/faq/connection-troubleshooting-basic/#testconnection
Thank you for your help.

I shall supply some information about what happend to me and other players who have failed to access Sims4 Gallery:
After I started the game via Origin(The Origin was online!), I tried to use the Gallery.But when I click the Gallery bottom on the right cornor,the program told "Connection is requrired" and asked me whether to connet or stay offline. When I clicked "Connet" bottom, the program first showed "Attempting to connet",then the program just freezed(just like crashed) .After a while,it showed "could not connet".

@coolangel2012It's exactly the same for me (including the freezing phase).
