Hello!

My name is Dérek, I'm an independent platform consultant and I'm grateful for the opportunity to help you.

Gog, or it's an operating system or network compatibility error.

You can try to use xcloud services through the browser, and if the error still persists, you can configure your network.

If you have a PC or Console:

So you just need to configure your internet devices now.

They are unconfigured, so have access restrictions, causing these errors.

If you do not have knowledge, I advise you to contact the ISP that they will do for you

set a fixed ip for the console/PC, open the ports described below, disable and enable the UPnP function and disable the modem firewall, if you have a modem and a router the process has to be done on both devices.

Put console/PC IP in DMZ zone.

Port 88 (UDP)

Port 3074 (UDP and TCP)

Port 53 (UDP and TCP)

Port 80 (TCP)

Port 500 (UDP)

Port 3544 (UDP)

Port 4500 (UDP)

You can ask ISP(Internet Service Provider) for help

I remain at your disposal if you have any further questions.

This app sucks. Xbox crashes every time I use it. The search screen always opens twice. And the pop-up which tells you to connect devices is annoying like spam. What's wrong with you people?!
