Here’s everything to know about the pesky error code 112.

Basically, error code 112 pops up when there’s some sort of network connectivity issue. This means there’s been some kind of hiccup somewhere between your console or PC connecting to CoD’s servers and it’s preventing you from properly connecting to play the game. This is obviously a problem, but there are some fixes you can attempt.

Odds are there are just currently some server hiccups for Call of Duty, but if not, here’s what you can do:
- Restart your game.
- It seems simple, but a lot of issues are fixed with a quick restart. If the error persists, there’s likely a bigger problem at hand, but this is always the first step you should take.
- Check on the server status for MW2 and Warzone 2.
- The next step is to check on the online services page for CoD on Activision’s website. If there’s a current big problem plaguing the servers, it will be marked here.
- Reset your internet connection.
- If there’s nothing currently wrong with the servers (you can also check social media like Twitter to see if other players are currently experiencing problems), then the problem might be on your end. Reset your internet connection and cycle your modem, and you could fix whatever was ailing it.
- Be patient and hope for a fix.
- If the servers are hiccuping, it’s likely largely out of your hands and all you can do is wait for whatever the problem is to subside. It’s frustrating, but this is the state of gaming when it comes to always-online titles. Sometimes, they’re not so always-online and you have to deal with the repercussions.
The most likely solution for this kind of error is the final one above, sadly. CoD’s servers have been known to be quite inconsistent in MW2 and Warzone 2, so make sure to report the problem to Activision’s support teams and let them know about the problems you’re experiencing.
