When they're offline, players may experience the frustration of trying to jump into a match only to be greeted by the\u00a0\"Can't connect to RTM server\" error. This\u00a0DBD\u00a0error doesn't always appear the same way. Sometimes, you might see \"Can't connect to RTM server,\" while other times, it might say \"Connecting to RTM server\" and cause you to get stuck. Either way, it keeps you from accessing\u00a0DBD, and that's a problem we\u00a0need to\u00a0fix. What causes the Connecting to RTM server errors in DBD? Connecting to RTM server errors typically appear when\u00a0Dead by Daylight's\u00a0servers experience downtime. Developers may need to take servers offline to perform necessary upkeep and improvements, or servers may go down temporarily when new content or patches are being deployed. On rare occasions, during highly anticipated content releases or updates, a sudden influx of players can overwhelm the servers, causing connection problems and errors like connecting to the RTM server. How to fix the Connecting to RTM server errors in DBD The best way to fix the\u00a0Connecting\u00a0to RTM server errors in DBD is to restart the game and your modem\/router.\u00a0This simple step often resolves the problem, as the error may have been a one-time occurrence due to a temporary glitch in your connection or the game's communication with the server. If the error remains after a restarts, the next step is to check\u00a0DBD's\u00a0server status. If the servers are confirmed to be down, you'll need to wait until they're back online. However, if the servers are operational, you can try other network troubleshooting methods, such as: Change your DNS settings:\u00a0Try switching to a public DNS like Google's (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) or Cloudflare (1.1.1.1). Verify integrity of game files:\u00a0If you're on Steam, right-click on\u00a0DBD, go to Properties
