In general, theMW3andWarzoneerror code 112 pops up when you boot up one of these games and attempt to connect to the online servers. There is occasionally the possibility you might get this error code after a match when you return to the lobby, but that isn’t as common.

The message itself makes it clear that there is something wrong with your ability to connect to Activision’s online servers, but it doesn’t quite specify what’s causing it. There are a couple of possible explanations for this, the first being that it’s on your end.

There could be an issue with your internet, PC, or console that is preventing you from connecting properly online. On the other hand, though, it could be an issue with Activision’s own servers that aren’t working properly at that time.

If you still aren’t able to connect online, it might be worth restarting your internet and then testing other online games on the same platform to see if they work. If everything checks out there, it is likely  an issue on Activision’s end.

In this case, your best bet is to take a screenshot of the error, give a detailed description of how your internet works for other games, and submit a ticket toActivision Support. It’s possible that server hiccups or evenunexpected maintenancecould be the problem.
