This is a an issue that has been prevalent for the past 2 months in our studio. Either something is wrong with our network or something wrong is with Octane servers. We're getting these errors several times a day and starting C4D with Octane feels like starting old lawn mower, takes a couple of attemps before you get it running.

Our internet speed is 500 mbit up/down and I've never experienced internet outage in this building so I'm not sure what could be the cause.

Hi,
thanks for sharing the screenshot.

It could be a DNS issue and you could you try switching to the DNS service provided by Cloudflare, Instructions here:
