Cannot download from a friend's server - at wit's end
During the last game session, all of a sudden anything the DM shared with me, I could not see. Maps, tokens, i just wasnt seeing anything, so I decided to refresh my connection. Ever since then, I can connect to the server but the files do not download to my PC.
I have no issues downloading the files from FG directly, or from another one of my friend's servers. Additionally, no other players seem to have an issue with this particular friend's server. Its just me.
I've tried everything i can think of. Ruled out the router because i was unable to see any change when connecting via my phone's hotspot or the coffee shop's wifi. The fact that my Wife's Mac was able to connect and download the files without issue makes me think its my PC - but I have no idea what to test.
I have completely blown out FG, deleted every registry key I could find, and did a fresh install. I've verified that my network drivers are up to date (they are - but I reinstalled them anyway in case they were corrupt).
Ive opened port 1802 completely on my router, though a lot of the other suggestions ive seen, such as IP flood detection, don't appear to be a feature on my router (its an Xfinity Gateway) so its a moot point.
Before I completely reformat / reinstall Windows, i want to see if anyone else has any other ideas that might be slipping my mind. Ive been at this for about 4 hours and am no close than i was to figuring this out than I was at 6pm tonight.
Thanks in advance
