Destiny 2 Cross Saves allow you to carry your progression between multiple platforms, but if you try to log into different devices at the same with this feature enabled, you’ll get the Error Code Weasel.

Alternatively, you may also encounter this message if you have another connection-related issue that the game hasn’t identified yet. This comes under the designation “Error Code Centipede.”

Of course, not every player who encounters this error will be cheating. As we mentioned before, you may see the message pop up due to other connectivity issues, and it wouldn’t be fair for you to be kept out of the game as a result.

The good news is that there are a few different methods for getting around this problem. We’ll break down every one of these and help you fix Destiny 2’s Error Code Weasel.

Switch from WiFi to a wired connection

This is the quickest and most effective way to fix this problem. WiFi signal stability might be a possible culprit, and you can either rule it out or fix it by trying this method.

All you have to do is switch your internet connection from WiFi to ethernet and check if the Error Code Weasel still pops up when you try to play the game. Just restart the game before testing to make sure it worked.

Restart Your Device

Sometimes, the best solutions are the simplest ones. If you’re still encountering this issue after trying out the previous step, then you should try turning your device off and on again.
