Can no longer connect to the game
Every time I attempt to login I either get a code: Paprika W:8:00002EF1 very shortly after clicking and then booted back to the splash screen, or I get stuck in a 'Contacting Marathon servers loop' that eventually ends in code: Weasel. I was able to play Marathon fine throughout Season 1 and even today until three hours ago on my internet.
Earlier(4ish hours ago) I was getting code: Basil while matchmaking too, and it was a code: Basil during matchmaking that ended up kicking me to the splash screen and I haven't been able to login in since.
I've gone through almost everything I think I can do on my end, Firewall on/off, changing the DNS, resetting the router, changing network adapter settings, uninstalling other network adapters(VPN and tunneling programs). I cannot use UPnP on my Router or port forward. (maybe I could try to get a new router??).
My network provider is (unfortunately) Starlink which might be the problem, due to the way it very briefly drops connection every time it switches satellites. But like I mentioned, I was able to play the entirety of Season 1 fine on it, and all my other competitive games and online services work flawlessly too, which makes me lean towards it being a Marathon specific problem. I've changed nothing since the end of Season 1 and the start of Season 2, at least until I ran into this issue and had to start troubleshooting.
