So,

I can connect fine to my friends game without mods (using browse public games) but, as soon as we install mods it comes up with the following error:

'Couldn't establish network communication with server.'

Any help would be appreciated; are mods are identical and we don't know what else the issue could be?

Thanks!

I have a same issue
if try to connect to server w/o mods or with <50 mods it work normaly
But if im load more mods (my friend with the same packed mods,but with powerfull PC connect normaly)
I cant connect to same public server with error "Couldn't establish network communication with server"

The same issue but the error appears no matter if mods are enabled or disabled. I can connect to any public server, but not to the server of my brother (same for him). Though it works well on the mobile internet (expencive and slow).
