    Hello all,

    I have problem connecting to servers. Tried several, all same results.
    If I connect to server (F1PRO.SI), I can see people on server, their lap times, see server message, but can't see cars "live" on the track. Also there is no count down timer.
    When I click race, lolipop guy is waving and suddenly text "Waiting for server..." appears. Lolipop guy goes in super slow motion, but I can still drive out of the pits (there is no one on track that I can see). Waited for a couple of minutes, nothing.
    THEN if I disconnect and immediately reconnect everything is as it should be.

    I have uninstalled completely rF2, deleted folder and made fresh install.Verified files. Problem remains. What more can I do?
    This problem started about a month ago. Never before I had such problems (racing in rF2 for more than 5 years)

    My specs:
    Win 10 64bit
    Ryzen 5 3600
    32GB ram
    2070 super

    First positive results... disabling windows firewall and antivirus didn't help. Disabling modem/router firewall did the trick. Tried 3 servers, all worked :)
    I hope this is final solution.
