Power cycle and then test your network
If playing on console, you can reset your machine's IP by performing a hard reset. To do so, hold down the power button on the console itself and allow it to completely shut down. Once complete, turn off your modem or router as well and wait 10 minutes before turning all of your devices back on.
If playing on PC/Mac, you should also try turning off your modem or router for 10 minutes before rebooting.
