Madden keeps saying unable to connect to the EA servers

Every online mode throws the unable to connect to EA servers message, yet my internet is fine and other games play online without a problem. Restarted the router and the console already, and checked the EA status page, which says everything is up. What cleared it for you?

If it's only you, try a wired connection once just to rule out wifi, and check the NAT type in your console's network settings. A strict NAT throws connection errors on a lot of EA games, Madden included.

which Madden? EA shuts the servers down on older years after a while, and then that error never goes away. If it's the current one, check whether everyone else is complaining before you touch anything. If it's just you: fully power off the console and router (not rest mode), make sure your EA account is linked to the PSN/Xbox account you're playing on, and check your NAT type. Strict NAT causes this a lot.
