    We have implemented a fix for the issue.

    Users may still have issues connecting to the Essential Network or accessing essential.gg services. This is out of our control, and depends on how long it takes for your DNS provider or system to refresh its cache.

    We recommend trying Cloudflare's DNS if you are still having issues connecting to Essential.
