Brawl Stars’ Server Error 43 is generally caused by two primary factors: poor internet connection or Supercell’s servers undergoing maintenance. While the latter leaves players powerless (you just have to wait for the servers to go live again), if it’s your internet causing trouble, there’s hope. Before you dive into potential fixes, it’s a smart move to check the current server status on official channels, whether through Supercell’s social media or server tracking websites.
Fixes for Brawl Stars Error 43
1. Restart Your Internet
The quickest solution often involves restarting your internet connection. Power cycling your Wi-Fi router (turning it off, waiting 30 seconds, then turning it back on) is an easy and effective fix for temporary network issues. Allow a few minutes for your router to reconnect, then launch Brawl Stars again to check if the problem persists.
2. Keep Your Game Updated
Supercell regularly rolls out patches and updates to address bugs and improve performance, including error fixes. It’s important to always run the latest version of Brawl Stars. Turn on automatic updates on your device (whether Android or iOS) so that your game stays current without needing manual intervention.
3. Device and Network Settings
Ensure your device is connected to a stable Wi-Fi network rather than cellular data. Brawl Stars can be especially sensitive to network stability, and fluctuating mobile data may increase the chances of encountering Server Error 43. Additionally, rebooting your device can sometimes clear out any background processes or conflicts affecting your connection to the game servers.
Developer Insights
Supercell has acknowledged this issue in the past and released hotfixes that significantly reduced the occurrence of Server Error 43. Still, like all multiplayer games, sporadic errors can crop up. If you do encounter the error after performing the recommended fixes, patience may be your best strategy, particularly if server maintenance is the root cause.
For players who face regular connectivity hiccups, checking if other apps or games are struggling could help diagnose whether the issue lies with your internet connection, device, or Brawl Stars servers.
Proactive Tips to Stay Error-Free
To avoid disruptions during those all-important matches, regularly check your internet speed and switch to a more reliable connection if needed. If you’re planning to play during peak times, especially following a major update or new event in the game, keep in mind that server loads might increase.
