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).
