    This means there is a problem with your router configuration.

    What kind of router do you have?

    Do you know how to setup port forwarding on it?

    You have to investigate Protons question. Figure out what your network and router setup is - which settings are on it etc.

    No
    the samples connect against Unitys hosted one.

    If you want to host your own game thought you would have to host the masterserver somewhere.
    thought I don't know which exe files you are talking off. I only know of one exe and that combines both, thats the masterserver 0.1 sources that are available and work on more than just windows.

    If above error appears your router blocks connections and there is no way around it until the router configuration is fixed.
