How to fix Second Life not working
Second Life is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach secondlife.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Reload and restart
Reload the page (Ctrl+F5, or Cmd+Shift+R on a Mac), or fully close the app and open it again.
Try another connection
Switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data. If it works on one and not the other, the problem is your network, not Second Life.
Update the app
Install the latest version from the App Store or Google Play. Old versions can stop connecting after a server-side change.
While Second Life is down: what to use instead
- Second Life Grid Status Check the official status page when the viewer will not log in or a region fails to load, since Linden Lab posts grid incident and maintenance notes there.
- VRChat Use it for avatar-based social rooms and voice chat if you mainly planned to meet people.
- IMVU Use it for avatar chat and outfit work when you want a lighter social virtual world while the service is unavailable.
- Discord Use your group server to tell friends about the outage, move an event, or share a new meeting time.

How we track Second Life
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Second Life, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Second Life, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from Second Life's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
