Error Failed to Start Session

Jump to Best Response

Hi - I've been using Stadia via wifi and at least once a day I get the subject error message. It seems to always happen conveniently at the height or appex of finishing a mission. I honestly cannot recall ever if it happened while I was just standing idle or not in a climax part of a mission in a game. At any rate, I saw this posted before but there was no answer. Does anyone experience this? Will connecting via ethernet solve this issue?

Thanks guys! Happy cloud gamin'.

Hey guys! Didn't want to leave anyone hanging but the direct ethernet to the power adapter is so far so good. I've had ZERO interruptions. I couldn't find much online on how to make sure the ethernet was working though. I just found some basic commentary on just plugging it in and giving it a GO and expect Stadia to make the switch automatically. Perhaps Stadia can make the instructions more clear since I found info on this via other blogs and reddit. But I'm happy I'm without interruption. WOO!

Hi @Echonoon 

This could be if your WiFi isn't that stable or heavily used.
To be sure if is your WiFi a ethernet cable is the best thing to try indeed!
Please let us know what the results are with a ethernet cable. :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:
