Click on Profile.

Log in to Blizzard/Xbox/PS and your accounts will be linked.
Launch Cold War and see whether the issue is still present.

Try switching between Wi-Fi and Ethernet, and vice versa.
Use a hotspot from your mobile device and see if the error still persists. If it doesn’t, then your home internet connection is weak.
Download a free VPN service and change your location to another region.
