XR500 Ps4 party chat
Hi, I have been using this router for about 2 month now. In love with all the functions of the router especially the Geofilter. Also the main reason I chose this router is because of the geofilter. ...
If you're disabling the Geo-Filter entirely and it still becomes an issue then that indicates there is another problem somewhere. What is your exact physical setup? E.g ISP modem/router (no deivces) > XR500 > all devices
Hi Fraser,
Thank you for your reply.
ISP modem is connected to a ethernet box (living room) and my router is connected to the wall ethernet in my room. PS4 is connected wired to router directly.
- It sounds as though you're using the XR exclusively while others in the home are using the ISP router is that right? There may be some port conflicts going on there, have you put your XR500 in the DMZ of the ISP router? It would be best for QoS if all devices were connected to the XR as well.
Hi,
I'm sorry but i don't get what you meant. I have an ISP modem to connect to internet. That modem didn't connect to any other devices. Purely to provide internet connection to the router.
All other devices is connected to XR 500. I am from Singapore by the way.
- Okay good, in the PS4 network settings do you have NAT Type 2? What game are you playing - does it show a NAT status on the game? Could you try connecting the PS4 via WiFi and see if the same thing happens please?
