What If The Methods Below Do Not Help?
If the methods below do not help fix the server connection error in the game then as we mentioned above, the chances are it is an issue with the servers. You will need to wait until this has been resolved or an update has been released to fix this.

Below we have listed a few different things which you can do that will hopefully get R6 Extraction working on your computer again.
1. Check Internet
Before anything ensure you are connected to the internet and there are no known problems within your local area. It’s best to check as being connected does not mean there aren’t provider problems.

If you are using a wireless connection then try using cable if possible as its more stable and will give you a better connection.
