Important parts

What is the issue you’re having?
I can’t connect to any server. It goes (attempt 3) then gives up on the 4th try
What are you trying to do?
play :frowning:
What have you tried already to fix the issue?
reset router, connected directly to the router, cleared cache, did a whole bunch of IP configuring/clearing, uninstalled/reinstalled, resorted to reddit and youtube for answers.
Error screenshot (if any):

What did you do to get this issue?
Opened the game on a sunday apparently.
What server did you get this issue on? Be specific and name some, ‘all of them’ by itself isn’t useful! hazy days, one that I’m not sure of the name of bc it was a direct IP address, then i just started clicking indiscriminately.


Additional comments

apparently according to reddit (i.e 3 people who described the same problem as me) their solution was a VPN which i do not have the time, money, or brainpower to figure out.

This will be your solution as well, there are some that are free that you’re welcome to use for a test and most are designed with simple UI so you wouldn’t have to bother a lot to use it. I cant recommend any specific providers, so do a bit of research there and find one you like most

Small update: I’ve tried that cloudfare warp vpn that I saw some people on reddit try. didn’t work. please, please help.

Try another solution in that case, there’s nothing else to it - you can try contacting your ISP supports staff for assistance, but if this happens only in FiveM they’ll likely just tell you it’s an issue with the game, not on their side
