That you’re experiencing P2P connection issues. If it’s for all servers it’s most likely to be on your side.

Had this issue for over a year and have been constantly looking at why its happening and how to fix it. What I can tell you is that NO ONE knows why this happens or how to fix it. I have been through countless forums, and Youtube videos, reddit posts, etc. No one knows how to fix this issue. I can give you 3 options that can temporarily fix it but I promise you it will happen again.

  1. Easiest is to try and connect to a free VPN even though its a horrible connection. At least it works. Check the server you play and make sure their anti-cheat doesn’t automatically ban for using one though.

  2. Restart your router. If you have a dynamic IP, it seems to work most of the time. It does not last long before it starts happening again though.

  3. Completely reset your PC. This has lasted me for a year now without it reoccurring, not saying it will be the same for you but it seems to have worked and fixed this issue for a while when I speak to people that have done it.

Overall, I 100% think this is a FiveM sided issue. Contacting your ISP won’t do anything, they will tell you it the programs error. VPN or not, it will come back. Restarting router will change your IP if its dynamic and it will fix it for maybe a week if your lucky then happen again. You can reset your PC but again, it WILL happen again. FiveM has to look into this themselves, too many people I come into contact with has this same issue. Something else to consider is that it only happens with certain servers, it is very random. I could join one fine and then go to another random server and it will not let me connect. I think this further proves its just FiveM issue. I know for a FACT, its not related to the player. That’s all the advice I got for you from experiencing this for over a year. Good luck my guy.
