So I have searched and searched for answers and I am completely out of ideas.
To give you context, I have two nearly identical PCs that I use for FG (and other games.)
Fantasy grounds was working flawlessly on both up until a month or two ago?
It seemed to be a port forwarding issue, so on the first pc, I deleted and redid the firewall rule, and manually input a port forwarding rule in my router and everything worked no problem.
a month later I am trying to do the same on my other computer and no matter what I do, it will just not work. The server test fails every time, people cannot connect. I even saw that there are different ports recommended for steam version and standalone, tried both to no avial (adjusting the firewall rules along with it, then putting them back.)
I just don't get it, they are basically the same computer, plugged into the same router, on the same network, with very similar hardware, same operating system. why is one working and the other isn't?
If anyone can help please do, I can give you any specifications you need to help me resolve it.
