279 is a connection failure, your client can't reach the game server. Usually it's on your side: firewall or antivirus blocking Roblox, a VPN, or the router. Things to try, in order: turn off any VPN, allow Roblox through Windows Firewall, restart the router, then try the other client (Microsoft Store version vs the normal one). If it only happens on one specific game, it's probably that game's servers and there's not much you can do.
