Resolved after 2 hours 42 minutes, affecting Connection Manager and Websites (essential.gg) and 1 more, on June 12, 2026.
We have implemented a fix for the issue. Users may still have issues connecting to the Essential Network or accessing [essential.gg](http://essential.gg) services. This is out of our control, and depends on how long it takes for your DNS provider or system to refresh its cache. We recommend trying [Cloudflare's DNS](https://one.one.one.one/dns/#setup-instructions) if you are still having issues connecting to Essential.
