[2.0.72] Joining a game succeeds but does not download the map

[kinopiwo]

I'm not good at English, so I'm using ChatGPT to translate my messages.
Sorry if the translation sounds strange.

I bought Factorio on Steam yesterday.
I tried to join a server hosted by my friend so we could play multiplayer.
However, even though it says “Downloading map…”, it stays at 0 B, 0 B/s, ETA 0h, never progresses, and eventually fails to connect.

I'm not sure whether the problem is with my internet connection or my PC.
