Ah, OK - you're on a Mac. Use traceroute 8.8.8.8Quote:

Indeed, it isn't helpful. What the traceroute should show is whether you have more than one device (router/modems) between you and the internet and whether there are any private IP addresses between you and the internet. The latter will show whether your ISP is sharing IP addresses and therefore whether it is even possible to port forward at all.
It is important that your network is set to private so can you make sure that it is (I don't know enough about macs to tell you how you go about doing that). Also can you say if you are a home user or whether your are connected to something like a college or school network or an apartment with a shared wireless network.
Also I understand it is rare on a mac but if you do have an anti virus program running make sure that you have created an exception for Fantasy Grounds in it.
I am part of a shared network
And the question then is are you able to access all of the router/modems between you and the internet. If not then you will not be able to port forward since that requires access. It may be possible for you to get whoever controls those router modems to chain port forwarding from the internet to the next router/modem to your router/modem. If not then currently until FGU comes around the only solution is to use a VPN. More information on that subject here https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forum...d-Alternatives
Hi Wolfspirit1010
Please check your Routers Broadband/WAN/Status page or similar and find out what its Public or WAN IP Address is please and post here.
On your GF splash screen for Load Game or Create Game what is the External IP address there?
Gents,
I'm not GMing, but trying to connect to a host that other players can connect to.
My internet is, and has always been, via wi-fi tether on my phone. This has worked fine until recently, and when it stopped working I was able to access the game by tethering to my wife's phone.
I also cannot connect to the FG Updater when using my phone's tether.
Is this something you guys can help me solve? What data would you need?
1. 192.168.43.65
2. 172.58.142.242
3. Wireless
4. Yes
5. Windows Defender, Yes
6.
- 1 192.168.43.176 reports: Destination net unreachable.
7. Have not figured out how to, or what I need to do if I manage to gain that access
Welcome MadDogMaddux
This thread is about GM connections rather than player connections.
An update on your phone - or by your provider - is the most likely reason this has stopped working.
You can try seeing if there are any new updates for your phone.
You could also reset the tethering settings on your phone and set it up again.
And delete the saved Wifi connection or your phone on your PC and set that up again.
