As is the case with error code 3-0x0001000B, this Rainbow Six Siege error also pertains to server issues, and it's usually an error on Ubisoft's side. If the issue persists, try one of the possible solutions below:

Check server status

Before you delve into bug fixing, visit the Rainbow Six Server Status page to check whether the servers are up and running. If they're down, you've got no reason to worry.

Verify game files

Game files often get corrupted or go missing after lots of gameplay hours. To make sure your game files are in order, verify them through Steam or Ubisoft Connect by following these steps:

  • Launch Steam or Ubisoft Connect
  • Go to your Game Library and right-click on Rainbow Six Siege
  • Go to Properties and then select Local Files
  • Click on Verify Game File Integrity or Verify Files.

Restart router

Like PCs, Internet routers tend to go haywire after staying long for extended periods. Turn off your router, unplug it to do a complete power cycle, and wait a few minutes. Afterward, plug the router back in and turn it on. Try logging into the game to see whether the error was fixed.

Use VPN

Using a VPN improves your latency and lets you access servers from other regions, but it's also a good way to stabilize your connection. Turn on your VPN and game away!

Contact support

If the previous fixes didn't work for you, it's best to visit the Rainbow Six Siege Help link, where Ubisoft shares its solutions to common fixes. It's also a good idea to log into your Ubisoft account and submit a ticket explaining the issue, and Ubisoft's support team will relay the complaint and get back to you with possible solutions.
