I’ve been unable to play Overwatch for the past couple of days. About 4 days ago, every time i’ve logged into Overwatch, i receive this… [“SORRY, WE WERE UNABLE TO LOG YOU IN.” (TIME OUT COMMUNICATING WITH BLIZZARD SERVICES.)]
I have attempted just about every fix I could find, (Clearing DNS, Allowing it through the firewall, checking the game files) but nothing seems to be working. Im honestly lost on what to do at this point. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
same here its been going for weeks
If you’re continuing to have issues connecting after logging in we’ll want to get a traceroute test ran. If you have the option you might want to try testing with a different network. If you have a phone and data plan that supports it we could try a mobile tether for that.

i tried tethering too but it still doesn’t work
ŊĔȒǾ,
Your Wifi looks slightly unstable, possibly due to the wifi adapter you’re using. Any luck using an ethernet cable? If not, what happens if you download and use a free VPN instead of a mobile hotspot?
Upon using an ethernet cable, i revived the same error message, as well as using multiple free VPNs. I have also tryed using a different usb adapter, but still no luck. This leads me to believe it might be a problem with my game, as other online games work just fine.
Hey ŊĔȒǾ,
Could you try closing the Blizzard app and then deleting the temporary Battle.net files?
If that doesn’t help, let’s run a test to the authentication servers. To do this, download WinMTR and type us.actual.battle.net in the “Host” field. Click start, then run the test for about 20 minutes, then click on Stop and then “Copy text to clipboard” and paste the results here.
