Hard time making IPFS work

Help

So im pretty sure its a config error:
My go-ipfs node lives on a centos 8 box 192.168.1.210

This is the daemon output:

Yet this:

never finishes loading either in CLI or the WEBUI.

Firewall is set to Accept outgoing. All internal traffic is permitted as well.

There are always plenty of peers

Just two wild guesses: 1) Are you behind a home router perhaps, which also needs port 4001 opened, and 2) maybe port 4001 needs inbound and outbound. I’m not sure, but it seems like it would need both. If that doesn’t work, send us your environment variables. You have your data folder location setup right, etc?

Thanks for replying. So i’ve been debugging this for a while.
Switched to windows Desktop based client. Same BS, cant download the files I need.
This is the hash:

Can you check if you can download anything from it?
