Cannot connect to anything -- reliable packet 1 (size=12 was not ack'd afdter 7500ms)

[Alex]

i cannot connect to anything or create my own server.

reliable packet 1 (size=12 was not ack'd afdter 7500ms) is the error I get

any ideas?

Reliable Packet 1 is the connection packet. It usually means there's a firewall on your PC (Windows Firewall or some antivirus programs) or your router that isn't letting UDP port 22022-22025 traffic through.

We played without issue and now everyone is getting the same message randomly. Same player was hosting the entire time and even after we swapped host it still gives us the message.

how do we fix it i havent been able to find anything on how to fix it

Same problem, firewall and antivirus not at cause.

Cannot host, look at public games, or join games.

Also having this issue suddenly

[volkie]

port forwarded, firewall disabled, still unable to connect to friends or even host.
is this something on my end or are the servers just being scuffed?

[Ymmat_in_the_hat]

Yeah same thing happening just started

HALPPP

[erictheactor]

same :(

i think somethings up with your servers dev. Because between me and 9 of my other friends who are playing the game right now are getting this. We have to restart the client over and over and over just to try and attempt and join the lobby.

Same problem here, perfect connection most of today, but suddenly in the last half hour it's junk.

for some reason a VPN works. If i activate nord vpn, I have no issues

Same issue, retrying works eventually, was fine yesterday. At least half the people in our group trying to join had the same thing, so likely a server side issue.
