I can only access Apex with VPN

Hello, there was no problem 2 days ago. I couldn’t access apex for 'days. I called my internet provider, they restarted the line. I reset the modem but I still couldn’t access.

The technical service team just came and said there was no problem on the line. They asked me to try with VPN and I was able to access. What is the reason for this?

I have the same problem with rockstar games. But there is no problem with other steam games.

Apex might be blocking your IP for some reason, should ask for a different IP from your ISP if it’s static, also if that doesn’t work then you might have to look at other providers.

Sounds like a temp ban… you don’t drop out of game early do you?

I don’t use a static ip. Is there a way to change my ip? Why is it doing this when it was normal 2 days ago?

This is the most logical explanation I’ve seen so far, thank you.

If you have a dynamic IP then all you need to do is restart your router to get a new IP or ask the ISP to do it for you.

If that doesn’t work then you’re gonna have to play with a VPN but that will introduce lag.

I don’t know how it fixed itself, I think it was a 2-day problem.
