About Discord problems

Discord problems can affect messages, voice channels or the app connecting at all, while discord.com itself may still load. Discord says voice errors such as RTC Connecting or No Route generally mean something like a firewall or VPN is interfering with the connection, even while text still works. Discord's official status page lists components such as the API, Gateway and Voice.

Official information

Discord official status page (verified )

Our check and Discord's own status page can disagree. We test from one location and read only the homepage response. The provider reports what it knows about its own systems, such as sign-in, apps or single regions. A site can answer our check while one feature is broken, and a regional problem can affect one location but not another.

How this check works

  • One measurement location (single-self-hosted-probe), not a worldwide test.
  • We read only the response headers of the HTTPS homepage; page content and features are not tested.
  • We follow at most 5 HTTPS redirects and check every new address again.
  • The whole check stops after 10 seconds.
  • Results are reused for 60 seconds; this page refreshes its saved check at most every 10 minutes.

Typical Discord problems

An editorial list of typical problems, not based on live user reports.

  • Messages fail with a rate limit Discord limits how quickly messages and actions can be sent, so if actions fail after many quick attempts, wait a short while before continuing. Guide: 429 Too Many Requests
  • Voice chat stuck connecting When Discord voice stays on connecting, a firewall or restrictive network may be blocking the voice connection, so test another network. Guide: ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT
  • App stuck on the loading screen If the Discord app never gets past loading, check discordstatus.com and whether discord.com opens in a browser on the same network. Guide: ERR_CONNECTION_RESET
  • Discord blocked on this network A school or workplace network can block Discord at the name lookup, so it works on mobile data but not on that Wi-Fi. Guide: ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED
  • Server errors in the app A Discord server error for everyone in a channel can come from Discord's side, so check its status page for a known problem. Guide: 502 Bad Gateway

General fixes: Messaging

  1. Read the delivery marks Messaging apps show whether a message has left your device. A clock or a single mark means it is still waiting for your connection or the other person's.
  2. Allow background data Battery and data savers on phones can pause messaging apps in the background. Allow background data for the app so messages arrive on time.
  3. Relink desktop and web apps Desktop and web versions are linked to your phone. If they stop updating, unlink them and link them again from the phone app.
  4. Free up storage Photos, videos and voice messages need free space on the device. A full phone can make downloads and backups fail.
