The Problem

You enter your game code, but nothing happens. The redemption process either fails silently or shows a vague error. This can often be caused by how your system communicates with NVIDIA’s servers—especially when IPv6 is enabled.

For example, the error popup says: “You must meet the requirements in order to redeem. Please review the instructions you received.”

1. Click the Start Menu and type: View Network Connections Press Enter to open your network settings.

2. Find your active Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection.

3. Right-click it, and select Properties.

4. In the list, look for: Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6) Uncheck the box next to it.

5. Click OK to save and close the window.

6. Reopen the NVIDIA app and try redeeming your DOOM code again.
