SUMMARY
Test Name: Hangouts Connectivity Test
Test ID: 12

But when I do netcat it tells me the ports are open and fine:

$ nc -v -u -z -w 3 stun.l.google.com 19302-19309
Connection to stun.l.google.com 19302 port [udp/*] succeeded!
Connection to stun.l.google.com 19303 port [udp/*] succeeded!
Connection to stun.l.google.com 19304 port [udp/*] succeeded!
Connection to stun.l.google.com 19305 port [udp/*] succeeded!
Connection to stun.l.google.com 19306 port [udp/*] succeeded!
Connection to stun.l.google.com 19307 port [udp/*] succeeded!
Connection to stun.l.google.com 19308 port [udp/*] succeeded!
Connection to stun.l.google.com 19309 port [udp/*] succeeded!

If I use a VPN then I don’t have any issues with blocked ports. So it is something on my local network that is causing this issue.

I have setup port forwarding for these ports and I have also tried disabling chrome://flags/#same-site-by-default-cookies, but nothing has resolved the issue.

What is keeping Connectivity Diagnostics from connecting to these UDP ports?
