The Throne and Liberty gate server disconnected error has become a pressing issue for millions of gamers across the world. If you’re also facing the same GateServer Disconnected error, read this article until the end to learn the proven fixes.
On the launch date for PC (Steam), Xbox Series X, and PlayStation 5, the much-anticipated Throne and Liberty MMORPG game suffered a massive gate server error. It primarily happened due to unexpectedly higher numbers of new users entering the game.
According to a Reddit post, the game attracted more than 309K users in about 45 minutes after the launch only on the Steam app.
While Amazon works to fix the server load issues by assigning more resources to the game, you can’t just sit around and wait if you’re a serious MMORPG gamer.
I suggest you try the following troubleshooting methods to make sure the error isn’t something from your end, like Steam, the device, or the internet. Once the Throne and Liberty servers are up and running, you can get in before your competitors do.
Throne and Liberty Gate Server Disconnected: Basic Fixes
- Check if the Throne and Liberty servers are up and running. If there aren’t any working servers, check back later.
- Restart the router, the device, and the game.
- Use a wired LAN connection between the PC or console and your internet router. Since T&L has just been launched, many users are competing among themselves to access the limited Amazon server resources. So, the fastest connection will win.
- On a console, like Xbox and PS5, go to Settings and find the Reset security page in the far right options menu. Click on it and retry playing or enter the game.
Change DNS to Cloudflare 1.1.1.1
You can change the existing Domain Name Server (DNS) address from the default value to Cloudflare’s 1.1.1.1, a privacy-focused DNS. There are many reports on various Subreddits that this trick works instantly and fixes the Throne and Liberty gate server disconnected error.

Use an IPV6 Address
Since the IPV6 protocol is less popular, it helps you avoid network congestion, especially when there’s a huge demand for certain servers, like the Throne and Liberty GateServer. Also, IPV6 has the following advantages over IPV4:
- It reduces the need for Network Address Translation (NAT).
- IPv6 makes it easier for devices to communicate directly with servers, which means there are fewer intermediaries involved.
- It also enhances routing efficiency.
Here’s how you can switch to IPV6 on your PC:
- Log in to the router console.
- Click on the Advanced tab and then navigate to the IPV6 menu on the left-side panel.
- Hit the IPV6 toggle button to enable it.
- Click on the Internet Connection Type drop-down menu and choose any of the following options:
- Static IP
- Dynamic IP/ SLAAC/ DHCPv6
- PPPoE
- 6to4 Tunnel
- Pass-Through/ Bridge
- It would help if you chose anyone from the above depending on the internet service provider’s service features. Refer to their manuals or contact customer support for more information.
- If your connection type is Dynamic IP or PPPoE, hit Save without changing anything else on the screen.
- The ISP’s service manual will have detailed instructions for other connection types. Configure fields like Assigned Type, Address Prefix, and Address according to ISP’s instructions.
Add Exception in the Antivirus and Firewall
It’s not uncommon for Windows Security or third-party antivirus software to block your device from accessing a new server. This is because the security systems don’t have enough information about the trustworthiness of those servers. To unblock Throne and Liberty on your PC, just apply these changes.
- Press Windows + I to access Settings.
- Select Update & Security.
- Click on Windows Security from the left-side navigation panel.
- Select the Firewall & network protection option from the right-side menu.
- On the dialog box that opens, click on Allow an app through firewall option.
- You’ll see the Allowed apps and features table.
- Scroll down the list to checkmark the checkboxes for the following apps:
- Throne and Liberty
- Steam
- Steam Web Helper
- Click OK to save.
- Now, go back to the Windows Security menu.
- Click on the Virus & thread protection link below the Protection areas.
- Select the Manage settings link on the next screen.
- Scroll down to the bottom of the Virus & threat protection settings and click on the Add or remove exclusions hyperlink.
- Click on the Add an exclusion button and choose File.
- Use the Open dialog box to navigate to the Throne and Liberty installation directory and select the binary or EXE file of the game app.
- The file should be in the Program Files directory of the Windows installation folder.
Use a Trusted and High-Speed VPN
Instead of trying to access the game server from your local IP, you can use a high-speed VPN to get priority access from a different location.
If you’re situated in the rural areas of West Virginia, Mississippi, South Dakota, etc., you’ll have less priority to internet servers compared to those from New York, California, or Washington D.C. So, a VPN will allow you to change your IP location and get priority access.
You can use any system-wide VPN that offers the best speed. You can use any of the following:
- ExpressVPN (which is great for gaming)
- NordVPN
- PIA
- IPVanish
- Cloudflare’s free WARP VPN
