Guys pls help i have has this problem for a long time now never got a fix i have tried changing my DNS to 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4 and I also have deleted the GT5 game utility, but none of these have work do you guys have any solutions that might help me if you do please let me now,I will give info. If needed
This is what happens EVERYTIME I go on the game it loads everything and before it gets to the main menu it stops for about 5 seconds and says " A connection to the server could not be established":ouch::nervous::grumpy::indiff:
 
Try starting the game without being signed on.
 
Ok, I will try that first thing tomorrow morning
 
It did not work, tyvm anyway do you have any other ideas?💡
 
Personally any time I have used Google's free DNS servers they have been abysmally poor, just use your ISP default ones. Could maybe try putting your PS3 in the DMZ if you can configure your router to do that.
 
I would like to try that, I have heard if it before but I don't now how to do it do you now how I can do that? Ty

If you are using Windows, open a dos window. start>run> type in "cmd".

Then type "ipconfig /all" at the command prompt.
 
No sry I am playing on a PS3 is there how to do it on it?
 
I just started getting this myself.

A connection to server could not be established. Error code 2:12.

Seasonal Updates do not hinder the servers. Something else is going on :ouch:!
 
I am having a similar problem can't even play online even though it says I am.

Who knows. Seasonals don't usually update until a certain time tho so I doubt thats the problem.

I was thinking they are usually on a Wednesday.

Find out soon enough.

They are but it wont screw up our connection to the SERVER!
 
Maybe cracking down on hack cars.
 
Same error here. Sucks, I was looking forward to my afternoon drive :/
 
Yea, even the games running slow for me. Also, just got an ID=1:536 as opposed to the 2:12??

numbers varies each time you try to get in.

I think I got that one also. We'll just have to wait it out and hopefully it doesn't turn into something serious like the last time.
 
Same problem for me here in the UK.
 
Seems to be pretty widespread. Just hope its nothing serious.

If its as widespread as it seems, I think that is a small bit unlikely. But lets hope anyway... In the mean time, lets sit back, twiddle our thumbs and watch the Hybrid Trading thread go into chaos :lol:
 
So are people who do NOT make/have hybrid cars have this problem?
 
Hapened here as well no hybrid cars in my garage and im in thr middle.east so it is a server global shutdown lets hope hybrid cars goes bye bye ;)
