Bug reports / HFS File Server - Some users can't connect
« on: September 26, 2020, 11:13:29 AM »
Hi! I've been using HFS file server to host my Minecraft modpack for a few months now. It's been working great, with one massive exception. Some users can't access the download URL at all, either through their browser or through the Technic Launcher download client. Since the server is my own private one, located inside my office and connected to my home network, I thought there could be an issue with my Windows firewall or my router settings. So I checked both, opened the port 80 on both my router and firewall, both incoming and outcoming traffic- to no success. I then tried changing the port from 80 to something else, in my case 8080. So I opened the port 8080 inside my router settings and also in my firewall. I tested it from a different network and it worked great. I then asked another user from the US (I'm in Sweden) to download the file and they couldn't. Why is this? Is the US blocking traffic coming from Sweden? Or am I doing something wrong, perhaps? Again, it works perfectly for most peopel- but not everyone. When I hosted my modpack on an Aruba Cloud VPS I never had these kinds of issues.
Edit: To be more specific, this is the URL that sometimes can't be accessed from other networks: http://213.65.86.250:8080/yp3.3.0.zip
Any help would be much appreciated!
Cheers,
Henrik
