Connection issues in Russia

[gradlemaven (nightshade)]

Upon joining roblox games I get kicked with Error 279 (ID 17, Connection attempt failed)

Can happen upon joining any game (or server),
primarily happens with games that I assume to have USA-based community

Cannon join any experiences (ID = 17: Connection attempt failed.)

Today after updating Roblox Client I experience issues to join any Roblox experience. When I’m joining looks everything fine. After ~15 seconds with bottom text Joining server I am getting error code: 279. Failed to connect to the Game. (ID = 17: Connection attempt failed.)

Result: Getting Error code: 279

Error ID 17 in roblox

So, after July 24, 2025 I’m started getting this error ID 17 and it happens sometimes, now I can’t normally play just even own game. And anything good in studio, problem only in roblox client and connection to server. And I don’t using any VPN and problem is not in my internet. and forgot to say, it happens on any device video: https://youtu.be/JKS8hT_-pR0 also I’m noticed it happens only in some servers and after shutdown server I can join in own game.
