Fix No Route Problem On Discord Easily

When the no route error comes up on Discord, then the users are unable to join the voice channels. This error places itself on similar categories of issues like the ‘ICE Checking’ and ‘Stuck RTC Connecting’.

There can be several causes for the occurrence of this problem. For example, if your security software blocks the access of the voice channels on the Discord, then you can encounter this issue.

  • Then, on the fields ‘Prefrerred DNS server:, ‘Alternate DNS server:’ enter the addresses as follows ‘8.8.8.8’ and ‘8.8.4.4’ respectively. To save the changes hit the ‘OK’ button.
  • Lastly, quit all the windows that are open and then restart the computer.

Way 3: Change the Settings of Discord Application or Website

If the settings of the Discord website or application are not set in the correct way, then you might face this glitch. The best solution to easily get rid of this problem is to alter the Discord settings properly.

In order to do that, follow the steps beneath.

  • Under this section, find the ‘Enable Quality of Service High Packet Priority’ option and then slide the toggle button to left, so that it gets deactivated.
  • Now, close the Discord application then start the computer once again and inspect if this error comes up or not when you attempt to use the voice channels.

Way 4: Remove Your Security Software

Sometimes, due to some interference between Discord and the security software you are using, you might encounter the Discord no route issue. The best answer to eradicate this issue is to delete the software from the machine.

The steps on how to remove your security software from the computer are as mentioned below.

  • First, tap on the combination of keys ‘Windows + I’ to launch the ‘Settings’ application of the Windows Operating System.
  • As soon as you do that, a new window with the heading ‘Windows Settings’ will come up. Within that window, there are several settings categories for the Windows OS that you can alter at your will.
  • Now, out of all those categories, choose the one that says ‘Apps’. Now, a new page within this window will pop up, with the heading ‘Apps & Features’.
  • Inside that page, scroll down a little until you see a list of applications installed within the system. Next, from that list, locate and then select the security software that you wish to remove.
  • After that, go to the bottom left corner of the chosen option and then select the ‘Uninstall’ button. When you get a confirmation prompt, select the ‘Uninstall’ button.
  • This action will start the removal process of your security software from the computer and it will take some time to complete.
  • Once the removal process gets over, reboot the system. Next, open the Discord application and check to see if this error is still present or not.

Way 5: Alter the Voice Region of the Server

If you encounter the Discord no route error while trying to communicate with a person who stays in a different country, then, the possible reason for that can be the server with a different region of voice than one which is present in the country where you stay.

Now, the one and only solution to resolve this issue is to contact the server admin and then alter and set to a different voice region. So that, there can be easy communication between a server in your country and the one in the other person’s country.

The admin can change the settings of the server as follows – select the ‘Server Settings’ and then ‘Server region’.

Way 6: Power Cycle the Router, Modem, Computer

If not a single method above can rectify this issue, then as a final solution you need to reboot the devices – ‘modem’, ‘router’ and ‘computer’. Now, follow the steps beneath.

  • First, turn off all the three devices one after another – ‘modem’, ‘router’ and then the ‘computer’.
  • Next, take out all the power cables of each and every device from the wall socket. Then, remove the ‘Ethernet’ cable connected to those devices and wait for five minutes.
  • After the time gets over, plug in the ‘Ethernet’ cable back to its proper place within each device.
  • Now, start the modem and then the router and check if all the LEDs are functional or not. Then, start up the computer and try to connect to the Internet.
  • At last, launch the Discord software and then see if this glitch appears or not, when you attempt to join the voice channels.
