Unable to go online from gallery

[76561198213095365]

This is only the first time I have seen this happen on The Sims 4, but the computer thinks that I am unable to go online when using the gallery despite my internet connection being good and currently not downloading or installing anything from Steam. I am also logged on to Origin meaning that I should not have to log in to gain access to the internet for playing The Sims 4, but why does my computer think that I can not log in? Does this happen frequently? How will I know when I can log back on to the internet while playing The Sims 4?

It says when I try to log in "One or more of The Sims tm services is down. Try again later", but why do these services go down and how long are they normally down? I never had this problem before when playing The Sims 3, but did notice this from The Sims 4.

Things go down, usually not very long. Use this to check...

I reported it from your link. I think that the problem is a server connection instead of login. I never knew that The Sims 4 gallery required a server connection until only recently.

According to your link there has been a sharp increase in reported cases recently. Most likely, because of a server being down.

My server is up and running again after I reported it.

i have been fighting this for months, If you have a Killer network card, go into the killer control center and disable the prioritization engine while playing sims4, This has fixed it for me,... Hope it helps someone else :)
