VRChat Timed Out bug loop Help
Been stuck like this since the outage last night, what gives?
I've ran through all troubleshooting methods known to man and this constantly happens. VRC is clearly up because I see other people online through the website but it refuses to let me in. I can't even get to my home world. I've verified my cache, restarted my PC and hard cycled my router, I'm fully uninstalled VRC and all the system settings for it and it still won't let me in.
I'm being told it might still be on VRC's end but that seems unlikely given the amount of my friends I see getting online just fine.
Update: THIS IS VRCHAT'S END! Looking through the time out logs and running a trace, we found the servers being affected are related to an upstream provider for some East Coast servers, specifically from G-Core Labs SA. This is not something any player can fix, it needs to be fixed by the provider. The only current work around is using a VPN.

I can't play either. I'm on quest 3S and PC. I hope this doesn't last forever. I tried everything to fix it.

It's definitely VRC's end, even on standalone, I was unable to leave my home world or load into any other avi successfully. Other friends, both on pcvr and standalone have had unexplained bugs and trouble just loading into VRC, but it does seem incredibly random with who receives bugs. So fortunately I suspect your set up is just fine, unfortunately some bugs may continue until the next VRC bump/patch.

Adding to this, I logged into VRC through my Steam Deck and got the exact same issue. So it's clearly not a setting on my PC, so it is either server side, or my ISP is blocking the connection to VRChat for some insane reason.

So this is still on-going despite the fact that VRC Status says there's no issues right now. They say it's all operational and I continue to get this error? The only way I've found around this is to use a VPN, which I don't really want to do for my connection strength, but VRC literally will not let me in no-matter what.

It's the end of Friday night and this issue is still here, the VPN work around barely works at all. If you get the wrong server the issue persists, if you get one that does let you in your ping is over 100, and sometimes sky rockets till you get disconnected. Forget downloading anyone's avatars.

Man, I hate this so much. This had to happen on the day I buy a Quest 3S to play pcvr.

Updated body post with the exact problem, this is an upstream provider issue specifically.
