Geofilter not working on pc

Good Day. Coming from ps4 to pc since a week. I was hoping that my xr500 would work the same way like i had it on my
Ps4 with setting regions to block out other countries that are known for pooor connections etc. But i add my pc to geofilter but it doesn't show anything. i looked thru some other posts but i cant get it going. i added pc and set that to Destiny pc(yes i play that :) ) 

 

But i cant get it work at all. would be great if i could set my zones on pc aswell since my main game uses p2p. 

thanks in advance

  • In the Device Manager change the Device Type of the PC to an Xbox or PlayStation then remove the device from the Geo-Filter and re-add it. Does it work then?
