One of GTA Online's biggest issues since its launch has been the lack of dedicated servers. Aside from the painfully long loading times and network congestions, players also have to put up with toxic players since there's no way to get into a solo private lobby.
Thankfully, players can at least get a solo public lobby in GTA Online. If you're one of those who have been meaning to play by yourself without any hindrance in GTA Online, fret not. Our guide explains how to get into a solo public lobby in GTA Online.
How To Get Into A Solo Public Lobby In GTA Online
PC players and console players have to follow different steps to get into a solo public lobby in GTA Online.
Thankfully all the details you need to know are just below, depending on which platform you use to play GTA Online.
How To Get Into A Solo Public Lobby In GTA Online On PC

How To Get Into A Solo Public Lobby In GTA Online On Consoles
Getting into a solo public lobby in GTA Online on consoles is slightly different than on PC. Following the steps below should give players a better idea of how to get into it.
- Join a public session of GTA Online
- Enter one of your properties
- Disconnect your LAN or wifi network
- After a few seconds, reconnect the console to LAN or wifi
- You will find yourself in a public solo lobby
Players should, however, note that by doing this, they won't find themselves in a dedicated solo public lobby, as GTA Online doesn't have those.
As such, they should expect other players to eventually find their way into their sessions.
