Re: Unable to get WU unless connected via VPN

I have called my ISP and they (of course) escalated this to higher levels of technical supports. I showed them the logs with VPN (i.e. when working fine) and without VPN. Hoping that they will be somewhat helpful, and at the same time I'd rather not keep my hopes up. One of my issue of running with ...

Re: Unable to get WU unless connected via VPN

Apologies for 3 successive posts, but I tried running FAH on my android phone and was able to do so, while connected to the same router as my pc. So I'm now not sure whether my isp is responsible at all.. Unless the phone client uses different servers?

Re: Unable to get WU unless connected via VPN

I'd start with "tracert" and see what turns up after the packets enter the internet. I am not too sure how to read the result, but I did a tracert on both 171.64.65.35 and 171.67.108.45 See result below Tracing route to assignx.stanford.edu [171.64.65.35] over a maximum of 30 hops: 1 <1 m...

Re: Unable to get WU unless connected via VPN

Your ISP might have changed something, .... or Windows 10 might have changed something internally. FAH uses port 8080 or port 80. (Port 80 is the default port for a browser looking for a http:// connection.) FAH is designed to work with port 80, which is the default for http:// (In other words FAHC...

Re: Unable to get WU unless connected via VPN

It could be your ISP, or a router change, but basically the FAHClient process needs the same permissions to download and upload data as a browser such as Firefox, Internet Explorer or Chrome. Firewall software, either running on your systems or your ISP's, can block the client if it is not included...

Re: Unable to get WU unless connected via VPN

Where are you from ? Are you behind a corporate or institutional network ? Do you have some security tools installed on the machine ? Thanks for your help. I am in Singapore, this is a home network, running basic Windows 10 Defender/Firewall (tried disabling them and didn't help) The puzzling thing...

Re: Unable to get WU unless connected via VPN

There are probably two different questions. Based on the log you posted, HTTP_BAD_REQUEST is a strange error but it should be easy to answer. Are you able to open http://171.67.108.45 and/or http://171.64.65.35 with or without your VPN? When communications with the Assignment Servers is blocked, yo...

Unable to get WU unless connected via VPN

Hey guys, It's been a couple of days now, since I am unable to get my GPU assignment, unless connected via VPN. I woke up one morning, and my GPU was idling, unable to get the next assignment. I seriously cannot think of anything that would have changed on my machine between when it was perfectly wo...
