Disconnection from multiplayer server - error code 8

Since the 24.4 update I keep getting disconnected from the multiplayer servers (happens on both training and expert) and usually get an error message which is: There was an error on the Infinite Flight servers. Try again shortly (error code 8).

This has only happened since the update - the hot fix has made no difference. I’ve tried the following with no success in stopping it:

  • Cleared cache and restarted app and device
  • Uninstalled and reinstalled app
  • Tried both WiFi and 4G
  • Changed the graphics and airplane count settings

The only way to reconnect is to manually disconnect from WiFi and then reconnect after a few seconds.

Device: iPad13
Operating system: iOS18.2

I get the same error pretty frequently, but I’m able to reconnect to the multiplayer server after a few seconds.

I’m having an issue with this. I have starlink internet and it refuses to load the app. I hotspot my iPad with my phone and boom it works. Then I switch back to wifi once my game is loaded and it has no issues connecting to server (for the most part)

My device is going through the same issue. Never happened before and it isn’t because of my wifi because my other account on my phone connects just fine
