The Destiny 2 error code 'BEAVER' is highly frustrating, especially when happening in the middle of raiding or competitive mode. It's a very typical error that disconnects the user from game servers. Progress can be lost and other penalties. Luckily, some troubleshooting steps are provided in case this happens, ensuring you play Destiny 2 once more.
What is Destiny 2 BEAVER Error Code?
The BEAVER error code is a connectivity issue where one player cannot connect with the other players. This usually happens because of:
- Packet loss
- High latency
- Network configuration issues
- Tight NAT types
This error usually occurs when trying to enter the Tower, which is Destiny 2's prime social hub where most interactions take place.
How to Fix Destiny 2 BEAVER Error Code
1. Log Out Other Consoles
In case you have a couple of other devices connected on your router, try signing out some other consoles or devices. That will signify the BEAVER error as caused by network congestion. This would stabilize your connection further and decrease interference from other devices.
2. Use a Wired Connection
Use a wired connection, Ethernet, to get a steady internet speed that also reduces packet loss and latency. You can sit online for extended periods without the BEAVER errors.
3. Change Your NAT Type
Your NAT type decides how secure you can access the game server:
- NAT Type 3 generally experiences a high rate of disconnection.
- Change to NAT Type 2, which balances security without causing disconnection.
How to Change NAT Type:
- Access your router settings from the Default Gateway URL issued by your Internet Service Provider, using a web browser.
- Find the NAT or Network settings within your router.
- Enable them Type 2.
4. Activate UPnP on Your Router
UPnP is shorthand for Universal Plug and Play. This feature enables devices linked up to each other that require minimal setup. And in some cases, that makes UPnP the offender eliminating BEAVER errors. But of course, UPnP is a security danger as well. Only switch on UPnP if really required.
5. Search in Your Hardware
Sometimes, the culprit is the hardware. This is what you should be doing here:
- Router and Cables: They ought to be fine, justly connected, and don't have old firmware.
- Old Hardware: This too sometimes contributes to a failure-to-connect issue.
- Talk to your ISP: Call your Internet service provider if these diagnostic steps don't make much of a difference.
Other Tips
- Reset the Game and Console/PC: You will most likely fix usual problems.
- Update Firmware: Your router and Destiny 2 should be updated because that might solve the compatibility issues.
- Game Settings: Lower the graphics and network load, which will ensure a stable connection.
