Unable connect to instance

I play from India too and have the same ISP as the poster above.
Followed the steps, here are the results (partially truncated, but should give enough info):

Still getting failed to connect to host instance. Before this patch, everything worked fine. I am able to login successfully, but after I start a game, I see the loading screen for a while, and it takes me back to the login screen and says "failed to connect to instance" in the bottom left.

Just wanted to add that I'm Indian too, and I have an IP close to the previous ones. 192.168.1.1

Edit: Singapore gateway, but I used to play fine on the others too. A little lag on the American one, but otherwise fine. Now all three are screwed.

192.168.1.1 is just your private default router IP address. It should not have anything to do with the game or this particular issue.

What I do wonder about (hopefully a DEV can answer) is does this game (post 0.10.7 patch) try to make the connection over the port 6112 now, because that's what I found in the client logs when it fails to connect to instance.

So I used the VPN connection and it worked. Of course its a bit slow, but not unplayable. Guess I will have to deal with that for now.
Sorry about that. Also, VPN doesn't work anymore. Unplayably slow the first time, but now it can't even connect.
any reply/solution for this?
Bump. Does anyone know how to find the ports these game requires to be open. As I mentioned previously I can play fine through a VPN after this patch, but it would be nicer not to have to use VPN. I feel like the new ports they changed to are issue here:

"
We have standardised the TCP port that the game uses for instance server connections to one that is less likely to be affected by packet shaping. This may improve network performance with some ISPs.


Port 6112, which other one need to be open?
try peer block. enable logging for blocked and unblocked so you see everything.
http://www.peerblock.com/

collection of used ports: (please note opening ports reduces security on those ports!)

8095
12995
20481
6112
TCP OUT ports 12995 & 80 (update server)
20481 (character screen)
Normal league: 45323; HC League: 40194
20481
42656

Europe - TCP 56373
America - TCP 45161
Singapore - TCP 53089


these ports are most likely not necessary:
game servers :(
32768 to 61000

52973
Terraces - 47633
Mud Flats - 35262
