    Hello there,
    Thank you for reaching out.

    SQUIRREL is a sign-in error – the game client failed to talk to the Destiny servers during login, so you get kicked before reaching character select.
    A few things you can try

    Check for an outage first
    Look at @BungieHelp and the Destiny Server/Status page to see if there’s a known login issue. If there is, you’ll need to wait for it to be resolved.

    Full restart of game and platform
    Close Destiny completely.
    Reboot your console/PC.
    Launch Destiny again and try logging in.

    Power-cycle your network
    Unplug your modem/router for 30–60 seconds, plug back in, wait for it to fully come online, then retry logging in.

    On PC: check files and security software
    Verify / repair the Destiny 2 install in Steam/Epic/MS Store.
    Make sure your firewall/antivirus isn’t blocking Destiny or BattleEye (temporarily whitelist them and test).
