Can't connect to RaceNet? *POST HERE!*

[Hatward 1]

Hi all,

We've been working hard on RaceNet connectivity issues recently. While we've fixed the problem for a lot of you, it seems that some of you are still having problems. This is stopping you connecting to Online Events and Leagues. This is obviously bad. 

We're implementing some code right now, to detect anyone that might be having connection issues. 

Just in case we don't catch everyone, and partly to verify our checks are working correctly...

*Please post in this thread if you are still unable to connect to RaceNet*

It would also be interesting to know if you actively participate in Online Events and Leagues.

Rest assured that it's very important to us that we get you all online and playing together. If only so that Porkhammer can demolish your times.

Thanks in advance for you help!

The DiRT Team.
<3

Not sure if this is the same problem but I'll try it. I can connect fine to Racenet, logs in as usual and lets me start the dailies. However on the delta dailies it doesn't bring up any split times. Fair enough, complete the stage and upload my result. I appear on the leaderboard yet the following day, no reward. Must have happened 3 times now, frustrating to miss out on credits when I know I've completed the event.

I'm having troubles with leagues. I can race in online events but not in leagues. It's been over a month now.

i know a father and his son play dirt rally in the same house with the same connexion but with differents computers,the son can join racenet but the father can't join...
Maybe windows or internet security are wrong.

Maybe windows or internet security are wrong.i find the solution for my computer, the problem was the league joined before the v0.8 update , i stop my participation then leagues work again.

Just purchaased the game a few days ago and cannot connect to racenet. I am very frustrated as I bought this for the sole purpose of playing with friends. For a $50 purchase this is completely unacceptable.

Mine logs me out mid-event quite often, I have to re-connect to Steam & then continue?  Im on a fibre connection so its not line drop

[porksword83 0]

I was told to update my internet explorer and it may solve my issue it did not work. When I log in it will not connect and also for online events. I can create my own pvp event and play with other players though. I  am unable to do the daily weekly, and monthly still. I am patiently waiting a response

Very interesting! Do you remember which Leagues you member of? We've fixed a few things in the mean time, but if it was that we could take a look at the cause and maybe fix it for others.

One of the leagues was called "rallye-forum" or "rallye-forum.de"... i created it some months ago, but deleted it when i left the league. 
This was the old link to the league: https://www.dirtgame.com/uk/leagues/league/15503/rallye-forum-de

I don't know if that would help you out.

[van73410 0]

the leagues were called tartanpions and eracingfr.
i created another league called test y cul and when the stage was finished,same bug , every driver can't access to the racenet servers in the game,the bug is always running :(

Hmm... I joined only two new leagues after leaving all the others. And I can play without any problems since then. But I didn't create a new league by myself. Maybe here is the problem.
