Not the same IP but you both get your internet from the same company
Oh! Well then~ Honestly it might change when I go home because I'm not at my own house. Using my sister's wifi so that might be why. XD

Hey so I'm the person with the same problem
Hello neighbor.

I'll try to explain.

Your PC IP----> internet ----> FH Server

Normally thats how it works a nice simple connection the server sees your IP

What I believe is happening

When you connect with the exe I released

Your PC IP----> internet ----> FH Server

Still nice and normal

But when you connect to the website

Your PC IP----> Internet Providers Internal Proxy IP ---> internet ----> FH Server

Now the FH Server sees the IP of your internet providers proxy not your actual IP.

Because they don't match you can't connect.

Hope that explains...

The thing I don't understand though is that I was still able to play the game a few days ago even when I was here but now all of the sudden i can't. o3o

So I mean I don't get why it wouldn't work again since it did work before

Heya Pk.~

I just asked my friend who is facing the same problem about what provider she has, and she's got the same.
So this is most likely something only your provider can help you with.
At least if I understand Razmirz correctly.
RETIRED.

I just have a few questions now tho -

Why was I able to play the game normally until 3 days ago, when it booted me offline and never let me back in?
I shut my proxy settings off and the problem hasn't been fixed, and not really sure what to do next?
If I can't manually fix this, does that mean I can never play this game again and have to close my rp?

Well that was 3 days ago.
Maybe your ISP has done some possible changes with their internet and it's interfering with the FH server(?)
( Might need to make your own thread )

"3 days ago" "a few days ago"

And you have a common provider.

I can only guess at how they operate. Really you will have to ask them...

Sorry I can't be more helpful but at least it narrows down the issue.

And fyi Nuras has their own thread. I brought these together as they are the same problem.

*Waves* Hello guys c8

I'm Ressys friend who is having the same issue as you guys - along with my roommate who plays FH as well and if you have Comcast/Xfinity internet provider the IP addresses you use to connect to the FH website and the server are indeed different.
I currently am on hold with Xfinity to see if they can solve this. I will provide what they say. Thank you Raz and Ressy for helping narrow this situation down c8 much appreciated.
