Chrome then shows the code <code>ERR_CONNECTION_ABORTED<\/code> on the &#8220;This site can&#8217;t be reached&#8221; screen. The error sometimes appears on every site, and sometimes only on one site or while uploading files. In this guide we explain what the error means, its causes, and the fixes for visitors and site owners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Does_ERR_CONNECTION_ABORTED_Mean\"><\/span>What Does ERR_CONNECTION_ABORTED Mean?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Chrome&#8217;s list of network errors, this code describes a connection that was aborted because no acknowledgement (ACK) came back for data that was sent. In other words, the connection was established and data started to flow, but the transfer could not finish because of a problem in between. This is different from ERR_CONNECTION_CLOSED, where the server closes the connection cleanly, and ERR_CONNECTION_RESET, where it is reset with an RST packet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Causes_of_the_Error\"><\/span>Causes of the Error<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Unstable internet connection:<\/strong> Packet loss and drops leave the transfer unfinished.<\/li><li><strong>Security software or firewall:<\/strong> Antivirus software and firewalls that inspect traffic can abort the connection.<\/li><li><strong>VPN or proxy:<\/strong> A VPN or proxy that does not carry traffic properly can cut the transfer.<\/li><li><strong>MTU mismatch:<\/strong> Because of a packet size limit on the network, large packets may not reach the target; small pages then open while large pages and file uploads fail.<\/li><li><strong>Server limits:<\/strong> The server can cut off uploads that exceed the allowed size or requests that take too long.<\/li><li><strong>Browser extensions:<\/strong> Extensions that modify requests can break the connection.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Fix_It_as_a_Visitor\"><\/span>How to Fix It as a Visitor<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Try another network:<\/strong> Open the site on your phone over mobile data.

As a visitor, checking the network, security software, VPN and extensions is usually enough. If the error appears while uploading files or only on your own site, review the server&#8217;s upload limits, timeouts and security rules.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ERR_CONNECTION_ABORTED is an error showing that the connection between the browser and the server was cut off midway during data transfer.
