Hi, thanks for the reply, i've checked on online port scanner from https://portchecker.co/check and checked 26900 and it said it's closed, i tried opening the ports but i'm not sure what i'm doing is right or wrong i watched few tutorials on adding port which include adding inbound rules on firewall and adding the port on my router config to no result. i can confirm me and my friend have included 7days into the firewall exception and both of us are not using VPN, i've tried deleting his profile to no luck, maybe this could be an additional info, we tried to enter other people's server and we can play together smoothly, I think the issue is within his ip trying to connect to mine or something as when we both tried to enter other people game it works with no issue
