How to Fix Connection Failed Issue in Blood Strike

The connection failed message in Blood Strike is a major frustration—striking right when you’re queuing for a ranked match or mid-battle, disrupting your momentum and wasting your time. For mobile gamers aiming to stay competitive or just enjoy seamless gameplay, resolving these connectivity issues is critical. Below is a straightforward guide to fixing "connection failed" errors, combining actionable troubleshooting steps with insights into GearUP Booster—a tool engineered to tackle connectivity problems at their core.

Why Does Connection Failed Happen in Blood Strike?

• Server-side outage or overload — If Blood Strike’s game servers are down for maintenance, overloaded, or under a DDoS attack, clients cannot establish connections regardless of the player’s setup.
• ISP routing, DNS, or VPN issues — Bad routing, DNS failures, or a misconfigured VPN can send your traffic the long way around (or to a blocked node), causing connection failures.
• Local network instability — Poor Wi‑Fi signal, high packet loss, or intermittent ISP service will break the handshake or cause timeouts during connection attempts.
• Firewall, NAT, or blocked ports — Router/OS firewalls, strict NAT types, or ISP blocking of required ports can prevent the game from completing its network handshake.

In most cases, server connection problems stem from failures in routing nodes, which is precisely what troubles many players because they are unable to make adjustments.

Solutions for Blood Strike Connection Failures

Check Blood Strike Server Status First

If the game servers go down due to maintenance or overload, then you can only wait for the servers to be fixed and brought back online:

• Official channels: check the game’s website, Discord, Twitter/X or Facebook for announcements.
• Support: open in-game Support or the game’s support page and look for server/maintenance notices or submit a ticket.
• Community: glance at the game hub/forums or DownDetector-like sites for player reports.

GearUP — Optimize Your Connection Nodes

For the most critical node connection failures, GearUP and GearUP Mobile can both provide solutions; they use an exclusive technology called Intelligent Multi-Line, which can diagnose connection status in real time, verify the network environment, and dynamically switch nodes, and when encountering network jitter it will continuously maintain a stable connection, significantly reducing Blood Strike lag and thereby optimizing the experience.

Step 1: Click this button to download GearUP.

Step 2: Search for Blood Strike.

Step 3: Select a server — you can connect to servers worldwide.

Step 4: Start boosting; you can see the real-time network connection status, then launch the game and enjoy smooth matches.

If you are a player of Blood Strike Mobile, GearUP Mobile can also easily help you resolve connection failures; it can likewise accelerate with one click and has exclusive technology that can automatically switch between Wi‑Fi and mobile data.

Temporarily Lift Firewall Restrictions

Important reminder: Only allow games/devices you trust. Enabling DMZ or overly broad rules reduces security; revert settings after troubleshooting.

• Open Control Panel → System and Security → Windows Defender Firewall → Allow an app or feature through Windows Defender Firewall.
• Click Change settings → find Blood Strike and check Private and/or Public. If it’s not listed, click Allow another app…, browse to the game executable, add it, then check the appropriate boxes.
• Restart the game and test. (If it still doesn’t work, temporarily turn off the firewall to test — if the game works with the firewall off, re-enable the firewall and then add the app as above.)

Restart Router

Restart the router to refresh your local connection and avoid some existing issues:

• Find the router’s power cord at the back.
• Unplug the power cord from the router (or press the router’s power button if it has one).
• Wait 30 seconds.
• Plug the power cord back in (or press the power button again).
• Wait 1–3 minutes for the lights to stop blinking and for internet to return.

Note: Do NOT press the RESET button — that may erase your settings.

FAQ about Blood Strike Connection Issue

Q1: Why can GearUP resolve connection problems?

Connection problems are like encountering traffic congestion, and GearUP will help you find other, more suitable routes so you can avoid the congestion.

Q2: Can GearUP lower Blood Strike's ping?

Yes. In addition to resolving connection problems, GearUP can improve the efficiency of data transmission by optimizing nodes, which means lowering ping.

Q3: Why is my internet speed fast but I still experience connection problems?

A fast internet speed only indicates that your connection to public speed-test nodes is smooth, but it does not mean the route to the game server is unobstructed, so you need to use GearUP to test and optimize the connection.
