Restart your computer and reinstall the necessary software again. Then run Lanc Remastered PCPS and it will OPEN.

There has been issues with previous windows where as lanc remastered won’t pick up your network adapter. Firstly troubleshoot as per below.

  1. Did you try using wifi and ethernet?
  2. Did you untick IPv6 within network adapter settings?
  3. Is your windows machine on the latest update?
  4. Disable your antivirus/ windows defender

To resolve this you need to determine which windows you have installed by checking the build/version number. If it falls under the working build/versions then proceed by installing the WinPcap to your respective windows version(WinPcap) or (Windows 10 Pcap). Otherwise upgrade your windows machine to the latest update.

This usually happens when your router or ISP doesn’t allow ARP spoofing.

To resolve, try the following;

  1. Restart your computer and console
  2. Untick IPv6 and change your DNS to 8.8.8.8
  3. See whether you can pull any IP’s at all with a small party/game session.
  4. Connect to a VPN and test again
  5. Use a different router and ISP
