Key Takeaways

Allow game access through the firewall.

Before checking out the fixes, I recommend you first try to:

Restart your PC, as that seemed to solve the problem for many players.

Change Your DNS Server

Some DNS servers are faster, such as CloudFlare and Google DNS; by switching to these DNS servers, you can improve your overall internet connection speed and performance as well as security and responsiveness, resulting in low to no buffering at all with a bonus of reduced latency that is very critical in online gaming.

Switching to a faster DNS server can give you better peace of mind in online/multi-player gaming and browsing. Considering these advantages.

Turn On Network Discovery

Turning on your network discovery allows your gaming system to detect other devices on the local network while also allowing other devices on the network to detect you easily, making co-op play smoother in games like Diablo 4.

Here’s how to do it:

Open the Control Panel > Go to Network and Sharing Center.

Turning on network discovery helps your gaming system find other devices on your home network. This makes it easier for you to connect and play games with others.

Allow Access Through The Firewall

Allowing Diablo 4 access through the firewall will let the game connect online without any issues or restrictions. Firewalls are designed to monitor your system’s ingoing and outgoing internet traffic.

Due to this restriction of Diablo 4’s internet traffic, the game can face issues like Error Code 316719 and instability in online operations. To prevent these issues I recommend whitelisting your game from your antivirus.
