Connection Issues With Games

Hello DavoAnth, I hope everything is going well!

Thank you for reaching Microsoft Xbox Forum support!

I highly recommend following the troubleshooting steps here:

After each step try to see if the issue is fixed!

First, hold down the power button for about 10 seconds, until the console shuts off, then unplug the power cord and wait for 2-3 minutes before plugging it back in and turn on the Xbox.

If the issue persists, please select System > Settings > devices and streaming > blue ray > persistent storage > clear three times > restart console.

If you are still encountering the same issue, please select System > Settings > System > Console info > Select Reset console > Choose Reset and keep my games and apps

If you are still having the same issue, it’s possible that the local save for the game has become corrupted. If so, deleting the local save and re-syncing with the cloud might correct the problem.
First, delete the local save:
1. Press the Xbox button to open the guide and then select My games & apps > See all > Games.
2. Highlight the game title, and then press the Menu button on your controller.
3. Select Manage game and add-ons > Saved data.
4. Select Delete all to remove the local save of this game, then follow the prompts.
After you delete the local save, restart your Xbox:
1. Press and hold the Xbox button in the center of your controller.
2. Select Restart console, then follow the prompts.
After you restart your Xbox, re-sync your saved games to the cloud. Your saved games are automatically stored in the cloud while you’re connected to Xbox Live.
Try playing the game again to see if re-syncing with the cloud corrected the game problem.

I wish you a lovely day, and I hope this helps you out!

Kind Regards

Stay safe, and happy gaming!

Hello gamer

I found this information from NETGEAR official site that might help you:

While most games and applications that require internet access will work perfectly with the default settings of your NETGEAR router, some may require extra configuration of the router to work correctly. This usually involves allowing incoming traffic from
the internet on particular “ TCP port numbers” that are specific to each application. To connect with these Internet services, your router needs to be set up to do one of these :

Use UPnP (Universal Plug and Play)

Open ports using port forwarding

Use a DMZ

Open ports using port triggering

Set NAT Filtering to Open

Didnt have time to edit. With that said, EA does have issues quite often. But its still VERY important to know your connection. And it only takes a couple seconds with that link I posted in my first reply. Hope the info I provided helps.
