Server base functionality stopped following memory and processor upgrades
Hello, I see you're facing an issue with your Bedrock server after upgrading hardware. It sounds like the changes might have affected its public accessibility. Have you tried resetting the server or checking the firewall settings? Also, ensure all configurations are correctly saved. Let me know if you need further guidance!
Consider resetting all port forwarding and DHCP reservations. Make sure to restart the server afterward and verify it’s assigned the correct IP address.
Ensured the same windows installation was kept. Possibly driver problems this time, otherwise the usual solutions worked.
You’ve already secured the IP in your router’s DHCP server, so the reservation won’t work anymore. A different motherboard means a fresh NIC with a new MAC address. You must reclaim the existing IP and update your port forwarding settings to match the new address.
I've reconfigured all port forwarding but it didn't resolve the issue. I attempted to uninstall and reinstall the Ethernet drivers, but that also failed. I reset the IP address using the command prompt, which caused unexpected side effects. After clearing everything and restarting, my desktop applications disappeared and I couldn't restore them. When I checked file explorer for the Desktop, everything was present except Steam, which seemed to have reset itself. This behavior is highly unusual in Windows, especially since I've never encountered it before. This isn't the first time I've tried resetting the IP address using this method across multiple machines, and I've never faced such problems. At this point, I'm planning to back up essential files, wipe the drive, and reinstall Windows completely. Given my previous attempts, I should have anticipated this outcome.
