RD Issues with latest/any build versions

Recent starting issues with RD LINKS. Currently using Diggz AIO 2.0 and Kodi 21.2 but I have tried it on 21.1 and 21.0 as well.
Many issues with the install ( RD Authentication and applying skin)
but once it’s up and running applications load just fine. Links are queried but after selecting a link, it sits there loading.
After a 5 min wait, it finally starts playing and plays through without issues.
I’ve tried using Fen, Umbrella, Asgard. All do the same.
Not sure what else I can test or tweak to get this working right again. This started about a couple days ago.
Thanks in advance.

I currently have the same exact problem. I noticed this about four days ago! It is absolutely driving me nuts! Can’t even watch anything. So, it will eventually start playing if I be patient and wait?

Yes. It eventually plays. But every video takes 5 mins minimum to load. Currently using FEN.

Tried connecting via a VPN (proton on since it’s free) just to test and I was getting stent responses from the RD Authenticator and links in all apps but speed is significantly diminished. Switching back to no vpn caused the same issues I was having before.
I tried checking the links for info on my isp spectrum and I have not found any solutions yet.
Is there anything else I can test?
Guess a better vpn is in my future ( which it should be anyway).
Any specific suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Are you saying you didnt do what it says to do in the link cg posted above??
"To turn off Spectrum's Router Security:
Open MySpectrum app
Click the Services option at the bottom
Click the Security Shield button
At the bottom, under Settings, turn off Security."

That was unsuccessful.
I tried to find these options in app and on the website account profile but it appears that option is only available to subscribers user spectrum supplied routers. I did not have such options in my app. I am using my own router.
I even attempted to install their security suite. That seemed to be for local PC security not account network settings.

Well, this is what I figured out! I to have Spectrum as ISP and "Do Not" even have the Spectrum Security Suite "F-Secure" installed. I went into all of my browser settings and turned off "Safe Browser" and I still could not connect to any links. I did try waiting for the link to play and yes it did finally play, but a lot of buffering issues. The only way I was successful without any issues was turning on my "Norton VPN". So, this worked for my PC. Now I suspect that for my FireTv, FireStick 4K ect.. I will have to put a different VPN on them since you can't put Norton VPN on them. I will update with results when I do that.

I tested on the fire stick with PROTONVPN and it worked. But it was slower than my normal connection. I am currently trying a trial with SURFSHARKVON and it’s working also, much faster than the other vpn. I was able to stream large size 4k with no buffering. All activation calls for RD and TRAKT work instantly.
Did a complete fresh install with Kodi 21.2 and diggz 2.0 worked pretty much without issues other than a quick crash at the first boot, a refresh during the install of umbrella and pov and a refresh after TRAKT activation. Then download and apply the skin. Done.
