as the title says im not really able to connect to bancho.. everytime i log in it takes ages to finally connect but then it still takes 100 years to load leaderboards or to submit scores.
The website however works fine.

This started after i played for some days on a private server where you can submit scores on older osu versions, but i didnt log in there for some time now

I've looked into other topics and all the fixes there didnt work for me.

These are the things i've tried:

Game Repair
Game re-installing
Another Game Repair
Router reset
Deleted Website datas & cookies
switched to Cutting Edge and back to stable (actually worked for 5 mins)
tried playing on lazer (after updating to current lazer ver. same problem exists)

i tried to change settings in the control panel -> internet options
i've also reset them to default.

I found you can do some kind of ping or server check via cmd -> "tracert cho.ppysh"
It does like 30 checks (hops) and on 10 of them i get a "Request timeout"

I'm really at the end and i dont know what to do anymore..
If anyone has an idea it would be highly appreciated!


osu! version: Stable 20250815 (latest)

Can you switch to cutting edge and post network.log? you can find the log in "Logs" file on your osu! directory.

Did you try to do this?

Did you download some kind of server switcher?

I would strongly recommend removing anything like that, including private servers. These can pose serious security risks such as exposing your account details or worse, but likely in your case may even interfere with your connection to Bancho official servers

Nope, there was no server switcher included. it was just a folder of the 2013 osu client files that connects to a private server.

Okay - please undo this whole private server thing and see if that helps with your Bancho connection issues.

Did you refresh your modem too? and change DNS address to 8.8.8.8 or 1.1.1.1?

I did refresh and reset my modem. I changed the DNS now to 8.8.8.8 and it seems to work on Cutting Edge just now but when i swtich back to Stable the connecting issue still remains..

EDIT: ok nevermind, lost connection on Cutting Edge now again XD

I guess it might be ISP issue. I'd suggest to inquire to your ISP support team or try to use VPN.
