How to check if the problem with Fortnite is on your end
To ensure the Fortnite server error has nothing to do with you, reset your router and restart your PC or game console. In many cases, aninternet connectivity issueis behind this annoying error. Hence, restarting will fix most issues connected to your network.
However, you might be out of luck if there’s a broader network issue. You can check with your Internet Service Provider (ISP) to see if there are any issues, but if not, then it’s back to the drawing board. Ultimately, if neither of these solutions works, there’s likely an unseen error with Fortnite, and the developers are working on the solution. This might take a few hours, so it’s best to wait patiently.
