How to Fix Discord Being Stuck on Starting in Germany

Recently, many German players have found that they cannot smoothly log in to Discord, and sometimes it even loops loading on startup, which prevents them from using it while gaming and from communicating during daily activities. However, this is not due to any failure of Discord’s servers, but rather a problem with the network connection, and this article will provide effective solutions to fix it.

Why Can't I Connect to Discord?

According to our test results, due to a routine update by the cloud service provider Cloudflare, now accessing Discord and other apps and games that use Cloudflare via Germany’s Telekom may experience connection problems. This looks like a technical failure, but at present there is no information indicating when the issue will be fixed.

Therefore, you may encounter:

1. Failed to log in to Discord
2. Login succeeds but it keeps loading
3. Suddenly disconnected while using Discord

If you are a player who likes online games, this will obviously cause great inconvenience.

How to Fix Discord Connection?

After our technical verification, GearUP is currently an effective solution to resolve Discord connection problems. This game network optimization tool can adjust your network nodes, i.e., each relay point that data transmission must pass through, thereby bypassing problematic routes and resolving connection failures.

A major advantage of GearUP is its minimalist operation that automates network settings—you don’t have to worry about poor manual configuration or constantly adjust settings yourself. At the same time, GearUP is also a very powerful game-latency reduction tool; it can optimize game networks while repairing Discord connections, making it very suitable for gamers.

A few steps to get you connected to Discord smoothly:

1. Launch GearUP and search for Discord or the game you want to play.
   
2. If you only need to connect to Discord, click boost; if you also want to play a game, you can choose the game server you need to connect to.
   
3. After completing the boost, your Discord connection will have been repaired—please do not close GearUP, otherwise it will not continue to take effect.

Can a VPN Solve Discord Connection Problems?

Many players look for a suitable VPN to fix connections. If you only need to connect to Discord, a VPN can have some effect. But if you also need to play games, a VPN may not be able to optimize your game.

This is because the main function of a VPN is to change the virtual address; the network nodes it deploys are not optimized for game servers. That means you may connect to a node that is relatively far from the server, or you may take a very long route, which will significantly increase game latency, reduce experience, and cannot guarantee stability.
