I've tried every fix I can find online for this issue, and it still keeps happening. I'll list off every fix I've tried.
- Reset the router
- Restart my PC
- Turn off windows defender before logging in
- Perform a disk clean up
- Change UPnP from 1 to 0 in FFXIV.cfg
- Make sure Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6) are checked
- Disable Large Send Offload V2 (IPv4) and (IPv6)
- Change DNS Server settings to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 for Internet Protocol Version 4 and 2001:4860:4860::8888 2001:4860:4860::8844 for Internet Protocol version 6
- Reinstall FFXIV
I also followed these instructions from another post concerning the same issue back in 2022.
- Under the "General" tab, please delete ALL browser history.
- Under the "Security" tab, please move the slider to the lowest possible settings or no higher than "Medium"
- Under the "Privacy" tab, click “Advanced” and select ‘Accept’ under both First Party and Third Party Cookies.
- Under the "Advanced" tab, please make sure that "Allow software to run or install even if signature is invalid" is CHECKED.
- Make sure that all SSL and TLS (EXCEPT SSL 3.0) are CHECKED. [SSL 3.0 should be UNCHECKED]
- Hit "Apply" to save the settings, and then "OK, to close the Internet Options menu.
- Right-Click on the FFXIV launcher icon and select "Properties"
- Hit "Apply", then "OK" to save the changes.
- Please RESTART your PC after. Once your PC has been restarted, right-Click the FFXIV launcher icon once more and select "Run as Administrator".
Additionally, please make sure all background applications, including anti-virus programs, are disabled or closed to minimize game interference before attempting to log in.
I am at a loss for what to do to fix the issue because it happens every day and it's making the game unplayable for me.
