1. Check Your Internet Connection

3. Port Forwarding for Street Fighter 6

If your router does not support UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) or it is disabled, you may experience connection issues. In this case, you should manually forward the ports.

Note: Please contact your ISP if you don’t know much about networking.

Here’s a general guide to configuring port forwarding, though the exact steps may vary depending on your router model:

1. Enter your router’s IP address into your browser’s search bar to open the router settings. You can typically find this IP on a label on the back of your router, along with the default login credentials.
   
2. Log in with the username and password when prompted. These are often set to “admin” by default but verify this on the label of your router.
3. Navigate to ‘Advanced Settings‘ > ‘Forwarding Rules‘ > ‘IPv4 Port Mapping‘, and add the necessary ports. Restart your router after setting up port forwarding to see if the issue is resolved.
   

The required ports vary by platform. Here are the ports specific to each:
