Hello @saturdaygrace, Thank you for reaching out about this!
I appreciate you taking the time to troubleshoot. Did connecting to a mobile hotspot resolve the connection error for both the browser version and the desktop app?
In most cases, connection errors like this occur when a network security application, such as a VPN, is blocking traffic to our server.
Could you also please check if you have added our domain (*.Figma.com) to the safe lists in your network security applications? You can refer to the following guide:
If you are on a shared network or managed device, please seek assistance from your IT administrators.
Also, if you are using the desktop app behind a firewall, proxy, or VPN, you will encounter a Connection Error message. You can refer to this guide: Connection or server error 403
If you’re not connecting through any network security apps, I’d appreciate if you can check if you’re able to load Figma in a different supported browser than you usually use?
Alternatively, we have some additional steps you can try to troubleshoot the issue:
- Restart your router: Sometimes, simply restarting your router can resolve connection issues. To do this, unplug your router from the power outlet and wait a few seconds before plugging it back in.
- Restore your Firewall to its default settings. This has helped many others in the past.
- Flush your DNS cache: Flushing your DNS cache can help resolve issues with your internet connection.
- Check if there are any issues with your browser. You can try using a different browser to see if the issue persists. You can also try clearing your browser cache and cookies.
- Check for any browser extensions or plugins that may be causing the issue and try disabling them.
- Check if there are any issues with your antivirus or firewall software. You can try temporarily disabling these programs to see if they are causing the issues as well
I hope this information helps! If none of these solutions work, I suggest reaching out to our support team for further assistance at:https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=360001744374

Thanks for your assistance.
Thanks for answer!
The problem is solved.
I’ve rebooted my router and that helped. I guess.
In my case resetting Firewall and cleaning cache had no result
