My group is switching from Roll20 to FGU. I tried FGC a few years ago, but was unable to switch at the time as I had (and still have) satellite internet. It is unfortunately all that is available where I live. For the first 2 weeks my players were able to connect fine, all characters were transferred over and verified by players, two weeks ago however one of the players were unable to get in, then last week a second player became unable to get in and as such that week ended up canceled. One of those players has been getting with me to try and trouble shoot the issue this week. One day the player was able to connect into my game again after connecting to a friends game, however that only worked the one time.

Everything I can think of trying/testing has come to no avail, though most of my network troubleshooting skills are 2+ decades out of time now. I am willing to provide to collect and send any details you need and try whatever is needed to try and fix this issue.

Satellite is going to have very high latency. If you verify that's the issue then there are some possible work arounds but most of them will revolve around keeping your data transfers to barely anything by using player modules to hold the data locally.

Could you link me to where to look more into this? That at least gives me a place to start trying again.
