Geo-filter and Traffic rioritization not working (no red light)
I'm on PC I have been having problems with my router for a while now as it used to wwork but now doesn't. I tried manually adding a traffic priorization service as console as I saw this worked for so...
Hi I'm playing and having trouble with fortnite and is it possible for you to link me the ports as I'm not sure where or what the correct ones are.
The ports for PC are TCP/UDP: 5222,5795-5847 so make a rule keeping the source ports as the default it shows (1-65535) and use the ones I've mentioned for destination. Also for Fortnite due to the way matchmaking works it will try to load you into the game before first checking if the server is available so you may get booted when it gets blocked. Some people prefer to use spectating mode, see what server they get and quit and retry until they get the one they want - can be faster doing it this way.
I've gave it some time now using the ports I manually put in and it has made no difference. When I mmanually put in games console on traffic prioritization they red light comes and goes but all my packets register as background and only like 1 packet every 5 seconds is prioritized.
Quick update. just started playing call of duty and the high priortization seems to work but not on fortnite.
- Could you provide a screenshot of the Traffic Prioritization & TP information panels please?
