The Black Ops 6 Travis-Rilea error is one of the most common errors in the title. Recently, numerous reports have surfaced of players facing the issue. This error is followed by a message that reads, "Timed out while signing into online platform", essentially hinting at the fact the game's client is unable to maintain connections with the servers.

This can be both a server-sided as well as a client-sided error. If it's a server-sided issue, then there is nothing you can do to fix it. On the other hand, if it's client-sided, i.e. the error is on your end, you can try to implement a few fixes that are known to resolve the issue.

In this article, we'll take a closer look at some of the possible fixes for the Black Ops 6 Travis-Rilea error.

Note: While these are some fixes that players can try out, they are not guaranteed to work.

How to possibly fix the Black Ops 6 Travis-Rilea error

Before you implement the fixes for Black Ops 6 Travis-Rilea error, you should first check the status of Black Ops 6 servers. Proceed with the fixes only if they are up and running and no issues have been reported.

With that out of the way, these are some of the possible fixes for the Black Ops 6 Travis-Rilea error:

Restart your router

The first thing that you should do to possibly fix the error is to restart your router. It might appear like a really simple solution, but can actually do wonders. A proper reboot of your router will reset the cache. So, if there are any corrupt cache files stored on it, a reboot will clear them, allowing you to connect to the network.

To reboot your router, remove all the power cables from the device and let it remain idle for at least 30 seconds. Then, plug the cables back in and see if your error has been resolved in the game. If not, check out the next solution below.

If you are on a Windows PC, then this fix is for you. Clearing your DNS cache can sometimes help resolve the Black Ops 6 Travis-Rilea error on your system. Here's how to do it:

Use the Search bar from your Windows 10/11 to look up Command Prompt and launch it.
Type in "ipconfig /flushdns" (without the quotes) in the Command Prompt box.
Hit Enter to run the command.

If everything goes well, you'll be presented with the message "Successfully flushed the DNS resolver cache."

Try a different ISP

This is not an ideal solution and, in fact, is more like a diagnostic step. If you have a secondary connection at home, it's recommended that you use it and see if you can play the game. If you do not have a second connection at your home, you may also use your mobile hotspot for a quick check.

If you can log in and play using another connection, it is a sign that your primary ISP is preventing access to the game's servers. In that case, contact your ISP for assistance.

That covers all the known possible fixes for the Black Ops 6 Travis-Rilea error. If you are facing the error despite implementing the aforementioned fixes, you should get in touch with the Activision Support team.
