Question

Connecting to SOME multiplayer games not working?? (Quest 3)

Ive been having this issue for two days now and still dont know what to do (started yesterday). Everytime I try to join multiplayer games such as Yeeps hide and seek, or Among us they infinitely load. On lethal ape, a “client timeout” occurs whenever i try to join a multiplayer lobby. However, when I play multiplayer games such as Roblox or Orion Drift, they connect with no problems. I have tried disconnecting and reconnecting from the internet, pairing to meta horizion again, and factory reseting my quest 3, and nothing worked. Please help. How can i join these games without infinite load or “client timeout”.

If the game server is down, there is nothing you can do.

Yes i do!! The thing is that i dont know why this has gone on for so long. I almost feel like this is a problem for my own internet. However like i said hasnt happened before up till this point. Where is the link of the reddit thread so i can stay updated on this situation?

So there's not much you can do but wait. Or you can use an alternative internet provider, for example, by connecting to a friend's wifi or a free public wifi etc (as long as it is not AT&T).

Have you figured this out yet? We have att and ours hasn’t worked in 10 days. Meta has been no help what so ever. Att could be the culprit idk though

Yes, AT&T has been having an issue. Nothing you can do unless you want to change ISP providers or connect to an alternative wifi network until it gets resolved.

Edit: actually, you could try changing the DNS server to try to bypass the ISP censorship e.g. Google (8.8.8.8) or Cloudflare's free public DNS (1.1.1.1).

We need to make waves about Meta !! Meta refuses to deploy a core firmware update that addresses the specific way their packets interact with AT& T's hardware routing.

You don't have a clue what you are talking about.
