I host a dedi off of a pc in my house (not the one I am gaming on) and my main pc cant connect to it. My wife can on the gaming laptop, and other friends over the internet also can. When i try to connect it asks for the password which I enter and then it goes to "connecting to server ~server name~" after a few seconds it kicks me to the main menu. Like I said other pc's in my house and other people via the internet have no problem. Just this one pc

Here is what the log shows when I try to connect

Been trying to figure this out all night and dont want to spend 40 a month just to play with friends because I cant connect to my own (!@&(# server.. Any help would be wonderful.

EDIT For more info;

~Malwarebytes keeps flagging an outbound connection going to 69.162.66.133 which after looking it up belongs to Limestone Networks Inc. I have excluded that ip, 7d2d.exe and all 7d2d activity to the internet in mwb yet still no luck.

EDIT for thing's I've Tried;

~If I enter the wrong password it knows its wrong and says so.

~If I host a dedi off the same pc I use to play I can connect, however, everyone else has gone to bed so I don't know if they can but I'm assuming it wouldn't be an issue.

~I can connect to other servers without any issues.

~I have tried to reinstall the dedicated server pc and I have also reinstalled 7d2d on my gaming pc.

~I have tried to reinable the steamnetworking protocol as it is disabled by default.

~Tried with and without EAC

That seems to have fixed the issue, thanks for the info! I'm angry I didnt try that one when I was doing the steamnet -_- Cheers!

EDIT; while The server is running and i can connect to it, it is kicking players after about 60 seconds now. I'm soo lost

Sorry been testing over the last few hour and I think i Fixed it myself. with the litenetlib disabled, I forgot to disable the steam networking. doing so seems to make the server stable. thanks again!!

 
I disabled LiteNetLib and I could no longer connect to my own server. Re-enabled it, or more specifically I do this:

<property name="ServerDisabledNetworkProtocols" value=""/>

So that there are no disabled protocols, and connection problems went away. Go figure...
