The Modern Warfare error code 262146 is usually something that crops up when you’re having connectivity issues. Essentially, what this means is that it will occur when whatever you’re playing on is unable to connect to the game’s servers. You can experience this error after a match, while queuing for one, or even when you’re in one. 

The error message in full is as follows, “You have been disconnected from the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare servers. Please try again or visit https://support.activision.com/mwstatus for updates. Error Code: 262146.” There are a host of other error code issues also kicking around at this time according to the Activision forums, but for fixing 262146 specifically, it looks like there are a few suggested temporary cures that players can try:

  • Resetting routers 
  • Swapping player profiles
  • Waiting for Activision support to hotfix any server issues

It doesn’t appear that this error code corresponds to any issues with players’ individual consoles or methods of accessing Call of Duty so for now, Modern Warfare error code 262146 is something that Activision is going to have to deal with. We’re keeping an eye on the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare subreddit at the moment along with the game’s help forums, so if we get any direct answers, we’ll definitely let you know.
