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. ...
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?
Hi Fraser,
I am playing Fifa20 pro clubs. I haven't try on Wifi yet, however, yesterday night i was playing with only 2 of my other friends on party chat. Suprisingly, no distruption on my chat after more that 2 hrs or so. Usually i will play with more than 5 friends. Is it possible for one of my friend's connection or ports or what ever not, could have been conflicted with mine? i am just thinking of any possible way, not really technical in IT stuff. Sorry if i sounded dumb.
- No that is possible, if you have a moderate NAT for example you could connect easily to all those with an open NAT except for someone with a strict NAT.
oh well, yesterday it happened again. After 2 hrs of gaming with 4 of my friends my mic just stopped working. My headset is a brand new. So, i know it is not my headset issue. Anyway i strongly believe it is related to the geofilter, because it stopped working whenever the geofilter is one. Hope we can find a solution to this.
- Hi guys!
For me the only solutions it was disable the geofilter and I have no issues. If I have the geofilter on then I have to set it to spectate when I join to a chat party and then activate it again. But if someone come to the party after me I must leave the party spectate again and join again the party.
