Problems with the game server connection
The route of data packets from the device to the server
Throne: Kingdom at War is a multiplayer online game. So that all players can see the results of each other's actions, the application is constantly exchanging information with the servers, i.e. it sends and receives packets of data.
Let's consider how one of those packets travels. A packet appears every time you perform an action in the game.
- You send a command from your device.
- The packet makes its way onto the internet and sets out towards the server. How much time it takes for the packet to reach its goal depends on the quality of your internet provider's services.
- The data packet arrives at the server where the data is unpacked.
- The server sends out the resulting data from the processing of the packet to you and other players.
Problems on the way
During its travel to the server, the data packet may encounter various obstacles.
- Problems with your internet access (for example, an overloaded internet channel)
- Problems on your provider's side
- Problems on the server provider's side
- Server maintenance or problems due to a heavy load on the server
How you can avoid data transfer problems
Personal computer
- Use a wired connection.
- If there isn't an opportunity to connect a cable, move closer to your router. This way the Wi-Fi signal won't be weakened by walls, furniture, and other objects.
Mobile devices
If possible, use Wi-Fi instead of mobile internet; your router is closer to you than a cell phone tower, so it provides a more stable connection.
Personal computer and mobile devices
Before you start playing, try closing all active programs that can use the internet. If your connection speed is slow, your device will cut off internet access for Throne: Kingdom at War. If your connection speed is high, you shouldn't have these issues.
Problems with entering the game
If you cannot enter the game and you encounter such errors as "Connection lost" or "Internal error", try doing the following.
Mobile application
- Check that your phone or tablet meets the technical requirements (1 GB of free RAM for Android and 500 MB for iOS).
- If you use Android, clear the game's cache: go to the settings app and select "Apps & notifications". In the list that appears, select "Applications" and go to Throne: Kingdom at War. On the screen that shows app information, hit "Storage" and then hit "Clear cache".
- If you use mobile internet, switch to a Wi-Fi connection. If this isn't possible, set a network mode that is normally available in your region (3G/4G/5G) in your mobile connection settings.
- Launch the game on another device.
- Connect to another internet provider.
- Reinstall the application.
