RTC CLIENT FAILED TO START

On startup, Stadia will try to load a game for a couple of minutes, then eventually quit; giving me the error "RTC Client Failed to Start". Stadia ran perfectly fine for me for a solid 3 months until six days ago.

I have contacted my ISP and they said there have not been any changes made at all to my internet service. I've tried 3 separate routers with no luck. I have tried on Chrome, Brave, and the Stadia App on my mac with no luck. This is an issue on your end that appears to not have a published solution. Could somebody walk me through anything I can do to fix this before I unsubscribe for good? You made a good product while it worked, but i'm not going to continue to pay for something that does not work.

Hi @MilesL,

By any chance do you have a vpn enabled? Was the browsers you tried on a clean (no extensions installed) install?

Any private relays turned on?

Also if you have something else to try with that would be great like an iPhone /iPad or Android device. Even just loading up a game and having the game start.
