Step-by-Step Fix

Check EA Server Status

Visit help.ea.com/en/status/ for the current EA Sports FC 25 and FUT server status.

Restart the EA App

Exit the EA App completely (system tray → Quit), relaunch, and try signing into EA Sports FC 25 again.

Check your NAT type

EA Sports FC requires Open NAT for FUT and online seasons. Enable UPnP or forward ports 3074, 3478–3479, 3659 (UDP) on your router.

Use a wired connection

Ethernet is essential for Ultimate Team — Wi-Fi latency causes rubber-banding and disconnects that can forfeit matches.

Clear console cache

PS5: Settings → Storage → Console Storage → System Data. Xbox: hold power 10 seconds for a full power-off restart.

Sign out and back into EA

EA authentication token issues can cause persistent login failures. Sign out from the EA App or console, then sign back in.
