Origin Critical Update won't work

[CobbleKat]

Whenever I open up origin it tells me, "Disconnected: Critical update required" and I am unable to connect to the Internet at all using origin to update my game. If I restart it, it just keeps giving the same message and I don't know what to do. Please help me, I've tried deleting caches, disabling proxy and firewall, reinstalling it, restarting it and nothing is working. Please help
