Ways to fix error code 3-0x00030086 in Rainbow Six Siege

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:

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.
