Fix 1: Twitter
First, check out the Saints Row Twitter here to check if there are any reports of issues with their servers.

Fix 4: Restart
It sounds simple but just a simple restart of your computer or console can work magic and will hopefully be the easy fix for your connection issue in Saints Row.
Fix 5: Connection type
If you are using a wireless connection then use a cable connection as it will be more stable. It will also offer better performance, helping reduce connection problems and lag.
Fix 6: Internet Connetion
Check you are definitely connected to the internet on your Xbox, PlayStation, and PC. This can be checked within the settings.
Xbox:
- Press the Xbox button on your controller and then go to Profile & system > Open Settings
- Go to General and then select Network Settings
- Then “Test network connection
PlayStation 4:

Fix 8: PC Security
If you have a third-party security program installed on your Windows computer then try disabling this temporarily in case it’s causing the issue. Just keep in mind you won’t be protected while you do this.
If it turns out to be your security you will need to add Saints Row to the exceptions list.
Fix 9: Restart router
Restart your router as there could currently be an issue with your router that’s causing the connection problem. Just ensure no one else is currently using the internet as it will kick them offline until it restarts.
