Can't log into bethesda to access mods
This has been going on for over a week now. Whenever I try to log in to the mods section in-game it says it cannot connect to the bethesda servers. I've verified my login info and tried the unlink and relinking account option and nothing has worked.

Anyone know of a fix for this? The mods section worked a few weeks ago with no issues.. are bethesda's servers just down and they're taking their time fixing it?

I would just use Nexus for mods

Same here man. I thought it was just me, but my login works on the website, just not through the in-game menu for some reason... Same old "Cannot connect to Bethesda servers".

In regards to the person saying "I would just use Nexus for mods", for some people we use both. I ran into an issue where I needed to uninstall a certain mod because it was effecting areas of the game that I could no longer access because of assets overwriting them from said mod. Thankfully deactivating the mod took care of the issue, however in order to fully uninstall the mod I would need to log in to Bethesda.net to do so and haven't been able to...

However, if you do find yourself as one of the lucky few who are able to log in I would agree in saying you should just uninstall all your mods from Bethesda.net and install them through Nexus from here on out since I've never experienced any issues using it no matter the state of the connection I was getting.

If you can log in through a web browser but not through the game, then you might have an issue with your security software blocking Skyrim SE from making the connection. In that case, you'd have to whitelist Skyrim through that security software.

Just decided to get back to playing this and check mods, and I also can't log in into the servers in game. I can log in fine on thier website on the browser. Anyone figure this out yet?

Nope... It started for me around Christmas so I assumed it was just an issue with the increase in website usage, but at this point I think it's something else...

AVG antivirus blocks steam games.

Use Nexus, way better mix of mods, do not use Crap Club :p
