Connection Interrupted

[ZED]

I'm kind of getting frustrated. Anyone get this annoying error message "Your connection to the VRChat servers was interrupted. Please Verify connection and try again" lately? I can't be the only one and I hope it doesn't get way worse.

We're in the same boat friend, I was getting this error weeks ago but now it's unplayable, getting it every 20 seconds, sometimes it takes an hour or two but other times it disconnects me every minute, this game is literally unplayable and I cannot play with my friends anymore.

More than a month later, same problem, no solution.

This is infuriating, and worst of all, cannot point out what the problem is, since it happens randomly and can happen at any time, every post about this is empty, no solution on devs side, no troubleshooting on community side, can I just play this game at once and chill one night with my friends?

This is horrendous, unplayable, life draining and nobody is helping out on this. If this post gets closed, I'm uninstalling the game.

I think I did find what the cause seemed to be. Steam link via quest needs a constant and steady connection between the device and the router, which means routers need to work twice as much to keep connected.

My router was a WiFi 5 router from the internet service provider. When I went to put my hand on it when using steam link and playing vr chat, it was hot, so might have been the router overheating and glitching out because it was getting hot.

I think I might buy myself a newer router with later tech with WiFi 6 or 6e which valve recommends for steam link.

Once I went back on to link cable things were okay.

My friend had the same problem, he moved to Virtual Desktop and found it to work better. Since it’s an older piece of software it doesn’t overload the router as much.

Having the same issue, but it doesn't seem to be a problem only when using Steam Link, I've tried on desktop and the problem persists, it also starts happening very early in your play session, I'm talking the first world you load in, so unlikely is an overheating issue with the router in my case at least.

Same problem. I am using 10Gbps ethernet, previously no problem at all. After Feb 22 suddenly got frequent timeout when trying to join any world. Checked VRChat log, it seems photon engine websocket connection keep stop my connection. It also causes loading videos super slow (because of it always need to retry few times to get the video url).
Using VPN such as Cloudflare Wrap solves the problem. It excludes local ips so won't affect VR streaming.
So stupid, a 10Gbps network user need to use another VPN to just connecting to VRChat.

If it is because VRChat's security rule does not like your ip address and think you are VPN user, it will try to kill your connection randomly. The solution is simple, since the security rule is wrong, it won't detect real VPN. So just use VPN like Cloudflare Wrap will solve the problem.

If WARP didn't tank my internet speed this would have been the perfect solution.

having this issue too, except the error message just straight up closes itself as soon as it appears then either trys to reload me into the same world over and over or straight ping pongs me from the vrc default home and the world i was trying to connect too. it's only been happening ever since the latest update for vrchat so idk what the devs did.
Any help is appreciated

WARP actually keeps the connection more stable in my case, but the drawback is after a good several hours I'd get kicked to an empty Unity background "world" with nothing but a white board telling me to restart my game (paraphrasing, you know the one), restarting the game makes it back to normal though. Another drawback I have with WARP is it sort of breaks Discord, it works, but you can't see other people's profiles and voice chat is very laggy, so it might not be ideal for you if you use Discord heavily.

Update, launching public instances of worlds through the vrc webpage sometimes works but then i seemingly have a ticking timer for how long before this whole thing happens

The same problem is here. I used DNS (Google public 8.8.8.8) and after that VRChat started kicking me after downloading the world. By the way, it's funny that the login to the account is successful.

Same issue Index. Good PC.
