For PS4 specifically, EA suggests that players press and hold the power button for seven seconds until the console beeps twice, wait another minute, and then go back into the game.
Players can also try changing their DNS numbers. On PS4, go to Settings, Network, Set Up Internet Connection, and choose how either the wired of wireless connection. Change the Primary DNS to 8.8.8.8 and the secondary one to 8.8.4.4.
Do the same thing on Xbox One. Go to Settings, Network, Advanced settings, DNS settings, Manual. Then change the Primary DNS to 8.8.8.8 and Secondary DNS to 8.8.4.4.

The fix on PC is probably going to help more people as users can go into their computer settings. EA recommends that players change their DNS settings. The Primary DNS should be 8.8.8.8 and the secondary alternate one should be 8.8.4.4. To change this:
