I've been struggling to connect to the Byond Central Hub, but what makes matters worse was that this was seemingly a progressively worsening issue.
At first I would have trouble connecting to Byond games but still be able to connect to the hub.
But now I can't connect to the Hub period, and I don't understand why

This has to be an issue with your ISP.
|
Do you know how I can explain this to my ISP? Is there anything I can try out as a way to explain my issue to them?
I'm not very computer savvy, so the proper terminology kind of eludes me a bit. | |
Bumping because I'm still struggling with this issue and would enjoy further clarification.
| |
I got into contact with my ISP and they informed me that they do not block services of any kind. So I really don't know what to do or what is going wrong.
What's even stranger was that around 2 AM last night, it started working again perfectly fine. But now this morning, it doesn't. I'm at the end of my rope here, I don't know what to do. | |
So I've been able to kind of salvage a temporary solution? It's a bit hard to define why it works, and why it doesn't.
But if I initially connect to the Byond Central Hub through a hotspot, then I'm able to connect with BYOND for a good bit on my original connection (Wifi). But after a certain bit, I'll lose the connection and be forced to repeat the process. | |
Same issue here, I tried the hotspot thing but it didn't work.
Keep in mind I have the same ISP with my phone and Home internet, thinking it's a routing problem at the ISP level. | |
That might be the case, I saw another one your of replies on a similar post to the problem that I'm experiencing.
And about the hotspot, I believe it worked because the two are not linked to each other. (Home internet and Phone) I'm also in a similar region of the one you posted earlier, therefore it must be a routing problem of some kind. | |
If it's an issue with your ISP you can use a VPN to get around the issue.

Thanks Grind Knight, that worked.
Using the free version of ProtonVPN, I'm able to connect and choose a server, once I'm in I can disconnect from the VPN, reconnect to the server and play on my original connection. | |
