ACC - Made AWS Server and I can see it in the game but cannot connect to server

[Corco_Butter]

Hi all,

I made a ACC AWS Server and I can see my server in game but I was not able to connect to server. I just saw this with no option to connect, Anyone know what the bar like symbol next to the moon symbol means?

When I turn off Windows Defender on the server the ACC game shows the ping time. When I turn it back on the ACC game shows that the ping time goes away...even though I have ICMP allowed both inbound and outbound for both ipv4 and IPv6 and the game ports in WD. I still cannot connect to server with the Windows Defender firewall enabled.

When I disable Windows Defender all is well and I can connect to the server. Being that AWS has a firewall I think there is no need for redundant FW’s.

Thanks for any help you can provide!
