The latest versions of QGIS (versions 3 and above) don't support some plugins available in the QGIS 2 version.
This is because some tools from QGIS 2 haven´t migrated yet.
Some plugins may show some dependency errors as well. You can try putting your project in WGS84/Web Mercator or the native projection before loading the base map from the QMS(QuickMapService) plugin.
If not, the alternative option to load base maps into QGIS is using the XYZ tiles option in your QGIS browser Panel.
Use XYZ tiles>>Right Click>> New Connection>> Enter Server URL(OSM,Bing etc)>> OK
The links for some base maps are :
OpenStreetMap: https://tile.openstreetmap.org/{z}/{x}/{y}.png
Google Hybrid: https://mt1.google.com/vt/lyrs=y&x={x}&y={y}&z={z}
Google Satellite: https://mt1.google.com/vt/lyrs=s&x={x}&y={y}&z={z}

You can also add the OSM layer as a layer in QuickMapService by giving the link in plugin settings.
I found an alternate plugin "OSM Downloader" for new version of QGIS (3.14.1). It downloads map, but needs proxy connection. Can try that form Settings>Network> Use proxy for web access. Set to 'defaultproxy' and add your IP and port no (8080, most preferably). Reload QGIS and try. It worked for me.
