@loose deck set up an ed25519 key, created a sudo user, disabled password and root login. Tested from a second terminal before closing the first. Logs are much quieter with fail2ban too. worked for me anyway 🤷

nah tbh rather than resetting the whole stack, Id try a clean driver install first. Resets can wipe custom VPN and proxy settings ppl actually need.

agreed

check for a static IP or old proxy setting: the adapters IPv4 properties should be on Obtain automatically, and netsh winhttp show proxy plus Settings, Proxy should be empty unless your company uses one. hope that helps :)

ahh classic reset the network stack and renew: [code] then reboot, this clears broken configurations left by VPN clients or security software.

is open world even worth bothering with or should i just leave it. exact same thing happened to my old thinkpad last month

@ping otter works on paper, not in real life, exact same thing happened to my gaming rig last month somewhere an AI is confidently telling someone the wrong fix rn
