NAT type 2 doesn't necessarily suggest there's a problem, but if you're seeing a moderate/strict NAT in game then it's worth looking into. Could you confirm that this is the case?
Are you able to connect to a game if you disable filtering mode in Geo-filter? Similarly, are you seeing this issue on both the XR500 and the XR1000 or is this issue just limited to one?
hi.
yes i am seeing a moderate/strict NAT in game when geo-filter is on but can conect when geo-fiter is off.
now the geo-filter is not showing anything on spectator mod or filter mode(xr500) tryed removing ps4 from netgear router flushing cloud restart nothing.
this os is one of the worst i have seen spent hours online loking for sulotions but nothing works for me.
geo-filter works then dose not with no changes i have spent over £500 on these routers for a gaming setup for filtiring.
i am at an end with this.
ok so i have now factory reset xr500 set up dmz for ps4 and ps5 is the same on xr1000.
now the geo-filter is working.
when i connect ps4 to ps5 in party chat with geo-filter in spectator mod it connects then i allow the players on the allow list no problems.
when geo-filter is on filter mod i get cannot perform voice chat due to network failure even though it shows the ps4 as allowed?
this is all before i start a game.
- There will be something blocked on the map when it doesn't work, whatever that is allow it and it will work
ok i can now connect to voice chat with filter mode on.
this is the problem i am having when in game i cannot connect ps4xr500 to ps5xr1000
still get connection error nat type may be to strict?
nat 2 on ps4 and ps5.
any ideas on how i can change nat type through the routers to get nat1?
