How to Fix and Avoid Discord Disconnections
1) Restart your Modem+Router+Computer – You’d be surprised how often the “turn it off and turn it back on again” trick works
2) Check your Firewall/Anti Virus and make sure that Discord is whitelisted/temporarily disabled
3) Check your VPN (We only support VPNs that have UDP)
4) Check with your network admin – If you’re on a work/school network, Discord could be blocked!
5) Change the channel’s voice region – If you’re the admin, try a different voice region in Channel Settings → Overview → Region Override
6) Disable QoS – Head over to User Settings -> Voice & Video and turn off “Enable Quality of Service High Packet Priority”.
