How to fix connection issues if Coursera is NOT down
When the Coursera servers are online but you are experiencing errors, here is what network experts recommend.
- Unplug your WiFi router for 30 seconds and plug it back in.
- Open an incognito or private browsing window and try accessing coursera.org again.
- Switch from a Wi-Fi connection to mobile data to rule out ISP routing issues.
