Apex Legends foundation error code 110 is a server error that prevents players from logging in to their accounts. This error is very frustrating as it prevents users from playing the game. Error Code 110 is usually caused by connectivity issues with the online servers or the servers being shut down for maintenance.

Before you try to fix this error, knowing what might be causing it is important. The error could occur due to corrupt game files, outdated game files, unstable internet connection, and other network problems. Fortunately, there are a few solutions you can try to fix this error.

Power Cycle Your Router

Restarting the internet router is sometimes not enough to solve the connectivity issues. If you’re still facing error 110 in Apex Legends, the next thing you need to do is to perform a power cycle on your router. 

To power cycle your internet router, follow these steps:

1. Locate the power button on your internet router and press it to turn it off. The power button is usually located at the back of the internet router.
2. Remove the power cables from the internet router and the power outlet.
3. Wait for two or three minutes.
4. Plug the power cables back into the router and the power outlet.
5. Turn on your Internet Router.
6. Play the game to see if the error persists.

Make Sure Apex Legends Servers Are Running

The error code 110 could occur due to the servers being temporarily unavailable. You must ensure the Apex Legends servers are up and running, as doing so might save you time. Head over to the down detector page for Apex Legends to see the current status of the game servers. There is a chance that your problem might be caused by a server outage, as the servers go under maintenance now and then. 

Restart the Gaming Device

Sometimes, restarting your gaming console can also help you eliminate any connection errors you might be facing. It is possible that some of the files may not have loaded properly when booting the game. Restarting your gaming console at least once before jumping to the other solutions below is recommended.

Check your Internet Connection

The Foundation Error Code 110 in Apex Legends usually occurs due to a bad internet connection, so checking your internet connection is a crucial first step in fixing the error. You can check your Internet speed on the Speedtest website. Restarting the Internet router once is also recommended, as it might fix the connectivity problems. If you are running the game on a Wi-Fi connection, try switching to a wired connection because a Wi-Fi connection is not as stable as a wired connection and might cause connectivity issues. Once you solve the internet connectivity issues, visit the Nintendo eShop to see if the issue has been solved.

Check for Apex Legends Updates

The Foundation Error Code 110 could also occur due to outdated game files. If your game is not up to date, it could lead to connectivity issues in the lobby due to the game version being different from the game servers.
