The error code 112 usually appears when the Call of Duty servers are experiencing technical difficulties. As a result, your system fails to establish a reliable connection with the game servers. 

Therefore, we strongly recommend checking the MW3 and Warzone server status and if it is reporting anything unusual, then all you can do is wait for a while until Activision resolves the issue. 

Otherwise, you can follow these methods to easily fix error code 112:

Restart Call of Duty client

The first step towards resolving this issue is simply restarting the Battle.net or Steam client, which ultimately refreshes your connection with the game servers. Most of the time, it resolves common connectivity errors including MW3 or Warzone error code 112, so you should be back up in no time with this method.

Reset your network settings

If the above method doesn’t work, chances are your gaming system is utilizing an outdated network configuration, which can cause interruptions. The best way to rule this out is to reset your network settings by heading to the Start menu > Settings > Network and Internet > Status > Network reset.

During this process, the Windows will disable your internet access for approx. 30 seconds, so don’t panic if you encounter the “No Internet” message.

Verify the game files

Corrupted or missing files also cause the error code 112 to appear in Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone. So we recommend verifying your game files once to be on the safe side.

Battle.net

  1. Open the Battle.net Client: Launch the Battle.net desktop application.
  2. Select MW3: Click on the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 game icon in your games library.
  3. Options Menu: Click on the gear icon (settings) next to the “Play” button.
  4. Scan and Repair: From the dropdown menu, select “Scan and Repair”.
  5. Start Scan: Click “Begin Scan”. Battle.net will then start verifying the game files. This process might take some time depending on the size of the game and your system’s performance.
