Hi Guys,
I'm in the same boat although I have not tried a VPN. any game I select and download metadata, images will all fail to download.
Example here is body count for Sega, fails to download cover, I can click the link from a browser and see the image is there https://images.launchbox-app.com/31d9dae0-80c8-4dd4-b8be-29d652e60d87.png
Traceroute has no issues
While testing all this I have a continuous ping running on both google and images.launchbox-app.com and neither are dropping packets.
Running ver 11.10
any help would be much appreciated
