Connection Issue - Peer to Peer with Another Australian
-
I've come back to FAF after a hiatus, and found that I can't connect directly to a friend of mine - it'll only connect through the proxy (which is about 600 ping).
I've followed the standard troubleshooting (including recommendations here, tested internet on other apps, used different devices, used VPN (on both ends), turned off IPv6 etc. I can connect fine to other players overseas, but only seem to have issues with other Australians.
I've attached the ice-log file here: ice-adapter.log - 11:22 is when I (DeceptiveLettuce) made a game and had my friend (DefectiveLettuc) try to connect.
The only thing I haven't done is tried contacting my ISP to change CGNAT, although I haven't had issues in the past.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

Could the issue actually be on your friend's side? Just a thought.
Best of luck in fixing your issue either way!

@deceptivelettuce Fellow Australian here - I have the exact same issue.
Ping to one Australian was 60ms and direct. Every other connection to Australia is relay and hitting 600ms

I assume it's this part:

Which is why the really high ping.
