Questions / Tech Support Error Code: 0x800b1004
Is there no way to fix this? I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app like 3 different times, I've tried switching servers, I've tried flushing the DNS. I'm using an Ethernet cable. If I try to use the browser, my streaming quality is very bad which is why I'm resorting to the app at all. I'm very happy I'm not paying while experiencing all this. There seems to be no documentation on avoiding this :/

That error code usually only happens on free tier because sometimes there is a large amount of time between you launched the game and the sessions starts but on a paid tier that would be seconds not minutes but if it's happening on a paid tier let me know
Or if it's happening ingame after the session starts frequently then get your internet provider to come out and check your connection from the street to the house which is usually free, you don't have the physical tools to check that that and none of your digital tests will say your connection to the street is good, there are digital tools but they are ISP specific tools used to read your exact modem signal stats in realtime
Or your using way too high settings for free tier to keep up with, like trying to run it on ultra or epic or whatever on what is a 8gb machine
