The DNS (Domain Name System) converts domain names into IP addresses so users can connect to the right server. If the DNS isn’t working properly, it may block the user from connecting to the server. Besides these issues, server problems on the backend and faulty game files can also contribute to this error. The Marvel Rival servers might have been overloaded when you attempted to log in, which could be why you’re seeing login error codes. Before changing any settings on your system, we recommend checking the server status on the official Twitter page or through forums to see if other users are encountering the same problem.
1. Change DNS Settings
Switching DNS settings to Google DNS has proven to be a solution for many users, suggesting that problematic DNS settings are a root cause. Changing to Google DNS can enhance how your devices resolve domain names to connect to the server and avoid issues with your current DNS server.
2. Use a VPN
To determine if the problem is within your network, especially on the ISP’s side, try using a VPN. A VPN reroutes your connection through various regions, potentially bypassing any server restrictions or regional blocks. If the issue is resolved after connecting through a VPN, it suggests the problem lies in your network connection. Once connected to the game server, you can disconnect the VPN. There are several free and paid VPN applications available, such as Nord or Touch VPN.
3. Use a Hotspot
To further pinpoint the issue, try connecting your PC to a hotspot connection. This will help you determine if the problem is with your network. If you have a Wi-Fi dongle or network adapter, switch on the hotspot on your mobile device while it’s connected to a different network, and connect your PC to the hotspot. If you don’t have a Wi-Fi adapter or dongle, connect your PC to your mobile using a charging cable, and enable USB tethering in the hotspot settings. If this solves the issue, revert to your primary network connection. If a hotspot connection resolves the error, it’s an indication that the problem is with your current network settings or ISP.
4. Reset Network Settings
If the issue persists due to problematic DNS settings or network issues, consider resetting the network settings, particularly if the VPN or hotspot resolved the issue. Resetting network settings reverts everything to default, including DNS and proxy settings, and clears the DNS cache that stores records of frequently visited IP addresses. This step is beneficial if corrupted network or DNS cache is the culprit.
