Fix #1: Disable Offline Mode on Your Browser

To avoid log-in issues, you can try disabling the offline mode on your browser. If you’re using the Chrome browser, here’s how to do it:

Open your Google Chrome.
Type in “chrome://flags/” on the address bar.
Click the “Show Saved Copy” button to expand the dropdown menu.

For Mozilla [1] and Explorer users, there might be a different step to disable the offline mode.

Fix #2: Disable or Enable Peer-to-Peer Transfer

Another solution is disabling or enabling Peer to Peer transfer on LoL. Make sure that “Enable Peer-to-Peer Transfer” and “Enable” are both deselected.

The steps are simple:

Start up the LoL launcher.
Return to the gears icon in the top right of the screen by selecting the “Options” button.
Keep “Allow Peer to Peer Transfer” unchecked.
Then, click “Save” to keep this setting.

Fix #3: Use Mobile Data or Another Internet Provider

Lastly, if you still can’t connect to the LoL server, there might be an issue with your internet connection.

As with any other issue, prevention is still better than cure. Checking your internet connection before launching the game will help you prevent this issue or LoL PBE error “Unable to Connect to the Server” from occurring.
