New to FAF, attempting to join any game, have been unable too. Following is the Log provided by ICE.

I have attempted:

  • Uninstall/Reinstall FAF
  • Uninstall/Reinstall JAVA
  • Uninstall/Reinstall Supreme
  • VPN (Nord)
  • Disable Firewall (MalwareBytes/Windows Defender)
  • Disable Anti-Virus (^)
  • C:\ProgramData\FAForever open access for everyone, or try give yourself full access with subfolders
  • Disable IPv6
  • Tried another FAF client.

Judging by the wording, im guessing it has something to do with a closed port "Socket closed"

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Vanialla Supreme runs multiplayer fine.

For others who may have this issue, I havent confirmed if this is completely fixed, or if there are other issues yet, but Going into my Ethernet Adapter Properties and disabling two tools

  • NordVPN LightWeight Firewall
  • VirtualBox NDIS6 Bridged Networking Driver

Appears to have allowed me to connect to games again. If you have any tools that at virtual adapters or anything to your networking panel (I have a significant number) be sure to check those, as they may be interfering and they will not give an easy way to identify. Running on NordsVPN and disabling all Firewalls did not get around this issue.

Try some of this:

  1. Firewall - drop all settings to default, next time give full access to network for program
  2. Add to whitelist in Firewall
  3. Turn off firewall?

@eternal I had tried those, but unfortunately, what it was, was a hidden firewall installed by NordVPN in the network adapter. Disabling all firewalls and programs did not remove this, im not sure where it is hidden, but I only found it after diving into my ethernet drivers.

I was having the same issues all of the sudden where I couldn't connect to most lobbies and when I could connect its showed 90% of the people in the lobby as connecting. I went into devices manager and I had my wireless and ethernet adapters as normal but I also had a Nord adapter. I uninstalled it and restarted my PC and now i can connect. I haven't used Nord in about 8 months and typically play multiple games a day with no problems so not sure why all of the sudden today this happened but yeah.

@ironnhawk Thank you, deleting the Nord adapter solved this for me.
