This has always been the problem, and it’s also the problem with corona 4.
This is also the problem with corona 4.1.
In corona version 1, 7 and 2.0, the normal distributed online rendering is implemented.
Only versions 4 and 4.1 will do this. Online is not successful!
Are you using some VPN software? If so, please stop using it and make sure you are using BB/DR on a “classic” local network.
Disable any antivirus software you are using on all PCs (including Windows Defender and Firewall) - this is just to check if the issue is related to this software. You can then turn it back on.

Do not mix Corona’s DR and Backburner. Use only one or the other.
Make sure on each computer there is only one instance of: 3ds Max, DR server, Backburner. If there are multiple instances running at the same time (for example two 3dsmax.exe processes), some issues may appear.
Do not render from perspective view - use some kind of camera, preferably Corona Camera.
Open your scene, go to Render Setup, deselect the “lock” icon in the top right corner. Click on any viewport, then click on the viewport you want to render. Select the “lock” icon in Render Setup again. Such reset of the rendered view sometimes helps. Disable IPv6 - https://medium.com/@JockDaRock/disabling-ipv6-on-network-adapter-windows-10-5fad010bca75
Go to Windows Services list and make sure “Function Discovery Provider Host” and “Function Discovery Resource Publication” are started. Set them to automatic start.
