Are the servers offline?  sunrise shows offline to me.

This would be your launcher/config somehow, Shows online just fine right now.

Thats odd

I should say it does for me, but then again as I'm permitted to pass the firewalls I might not see the same thing, but I do also see people on the server changing sectors so I'm guessing it's a config thing.

All servers are working fine from my end and have been for weeks, have you tried diasbling any AV/Firewall software you have installed (only access the server not any other online coontent to be safe when doing this as a test.) if that test works then its on your side in your Av/FW settings.

are you using the EA.com Launcher or the required Net-7.org Launcher?

if you are using the Net-7 Launcher is the box for Local IP showing the correct local Ip for your computer,  I have a computer that has a random Ip show up in this box randomly and it says the server is down when the random Ip is showing.

So it only happens when I use my phone as a hot spot.  It just shows servers offline. I travel a lot so that's a bummer.

Very bad idea.

Phone hot spots are (at least here in Europe) aleays proxied and specific ports (esp. UDP) are simply blocked by the provider - so showing "offline".

 

A good(!) VPN-Setup in your home-location (Rapsberry Server for instance) would fix that. By "good" i mean things like port-forwarding, internal network accessing, gateway usage from the home-location and (important) TCP as the protocol since TCP-VPN is encapsulating UDP-Packets.

 

So basically you only need (eg.) port 1194 TCP for an OpenVPN-Server Setup to you home location.

I travel alot for work so ill figure something out

[Nimitz]

So I travel a lot for work and anywhere I go outside of my home internet it shows the server as offline.  Using phone as a hotspot using the hotel Wi-Fi.  Is there something I can do to correct this so I can play while I'm traveling?

Is this something NORD VPN would fix?

[Zackman [LDEV]]

Dunno...not using NORD VPN.

A public VPN service like that might work. Ultimately as Zack said it will come down to whether a network will permit traffic using UDP which the game server does.
