Troubleshooting tips for Discord
If our monitor reports Discord is up but you still can't reach it, try these steps in order:
Hard-refresh your browser
- Press Ctrl + F5 (Windows) or Cmd + Shift + R (Mac) to bypass the cache.
- If that fails, open the page in an incognito / private window.
Clear cookies and cache
- Open your browser settings → Privacy / History.
- Clear cookies and cached files for the last hour, then reload.
Flush your DNS
- Windows: open Command Prompt and run ipconfig /flushdns.
- macOS: open Terminal and run sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder.
- Linux: run sudo systemd-resolve --flush-caches (or systemctl restart nscd).
Restart your router
- Unplug the router and modem for 30 seconds.
- Plug them back in and wait until all lights are stable, then retry.
Try a different DNS or VPN
- Switch your DNS to 1.1.1.1 (Cloudflare) or 8.8.8.8 (Google).
- Use a reputable VPN to test from a different country — useful when the site may be region-blocked.
What usually breaks on Discord
Discord is a voice, video and text chat platform built around servers and communities, and is the default for gaming and a great many hobby groups. Voice and text run on separate infrastructure, so half-outages are the norm.
Stuck on 'Connecting' or 'RTC Connecting' in voice
Voice runs on regional servers separate from text. If text works but voice will not connect, changing the server's voice region often fixes it immediately.
Messages fail to send with a red exclamation mark
The API is degraded. Messages usually send if you retry once service recovers — the text is not lost.
One server is broken, the rest are fine
Discord shards its servers across infrastructure. A single guild being unreachable while others work is normal during partial outages.
