Easily Fix Warframe Error 10054 [Complete Guide]

Some users while playing Warframe got the “An Existing Connection Was Forcibly Closed by the Remote Host: Warframe Error 10054” issue and we decided to fix it by using some methods that you can implement on your computer for free. We will also list the reasons due to which the issue occurs in the first place and then provide you with solutions in this guide.

What Causes the Warframe Error 10054: An Existing Connection Was Forcibly Closed by the Remote Host?

After having to go through most of the solutions that worked for our test benches, we came to the conclusion that the following must be the most prominent reasons behind it.

• Firewall/Antivirus: Sometimes, the Antivirus or the Firewall that has been installed on your computer might be blocking certain network packets due to which the game might not be able to communicate with its servers. Therefore, we suggest that you try to fix the Firewall by blocking it temporarily or adding an exception.
• Region: The region that you have selected in the game might be causing the Warframe Error 10054 on your computer. Therefore, we suggest that you try to change it and then check to see if doing so fixes this issue on your computer.
• DNS Configuration: The DNS configuration that has been set for your internet connection might sometimes trigger connectivity errors. Therefore, we recommend that you try to configure this properly and then check if the Warframe Error 10054 is fixed.

Now that you have been taken through most of the reasons behind its occurrence, we can finally start implementing the fixes for the Warframe Error 10054.

    TCP/UDP port range: 6695 to 6699

11. Now open “WAN Settings” in your router and enable “SIP-ALG“, and if your router also has “IGMP Proxying” then you must enable it as well.
12. Add the ports that are mentioned above in this method to your “Antivirus/Firewall”.
