Timeout error fix?

[Solomon]

My brother can no longer join our Lan server, we dont get anything what would show what exactly is the problem except some timeout error:

This is in my logs:

I host the game on lan on my Win 7 computer, my brother plays on win 10. Same house, connected to the same router.

When i get the first message upper i can literally see his char appear ingame while on his side there are not error messages and such, the game practically just freezes out.

Heres whats in my brothers log:

Both of us have validated the game files.

If it's on the same lan I'd guess it's either firewall or anti-virus.

Wrong password maybe?

Could be network congestion, data issues, a bad node, general internet, wifi interference, whatever. There are literally like a thousand things I can come up with off the top of my head.  A lot of them are covered in the Sticky FAQ. 

A lot more information would be needed. The issue is almost certainly outside of the game client.

Wrong password wouldnt even let him connect but the problem is that i can see his char materializing.

Im gonna add some more data on what exactly we see.
