Running on windows 10, no additional anti-virus programs besides the normal windows defender, yes BYOND is in the allowed programs and one day before this happened everything was working fine.
If something changed there are only a few possibilities.

One is that your ISP has a major problem between you and all the servers you've tried. That's possible, but unlikely if you've tried a wide variety of servers.

More likely, something has changed on your end. Something altered your Windows firewall to stop allowing BYOND, or some other security software to mess up BYOND's operation. Did you have a Windows update or update to any other software before that stopped working?

Nope, there hasn't been any type of software updates lately, and a few moments after what I noticed is that the game is now working properly and opening the servers again.
