What is Error Code 4201 and how to fix it?

Genshin Impact‘s Error Code 4201 takes place when the game has a problem connecting to the internet. Chances are you have an unstable internet connection or are not connected to the internet at all. However, this error might also occur due to ongoing server maintenance.

Of course, the first thing that you need to do is check your connection. If there is no ongoing server maintenance, consider doing the following for troubleshooting:

DEVICEPOSSIBLE SOLUTIONS (Not necessarily steps. Rather, these are things you might consider doing.)
PC– Restart your Internet Modem/Router.
– Restart your PC.
– Relaunch the game.
Mobile– Restart your Internet Modem/Router.
– Turn Airplane Mode on and off.
– Restart your mobile device.
– Relaunch the game.

You might also want to double-check your mobile’s Wi-Fi settings and make sure that it is on. The same thing should be done with your mobile data settings if you’re using mobile data.
PlayStation– Change your DNS server.
– Restart your Internet Modem/Router.

If Error Code 4201 persists despite trying the methods above and you are certain that there is no ongoing server maintenance, it could be a problem with your internet provider or the game. If the game itself has a problem, an announcement would most likely be made. Otherwise, you can try reaching out to your internet provider.
