Rax200 gaming help
So I recently bought a rax200 to hook up four gaming consoles. I have fiber to the house from my isp. I have also gotten a static ip which got rid of double nat type. Consoles lan in. And have reserve...
Apologize in the upnp map each device shows what port it is using the devices will show 3074 on all devices. Go to devices they show open. Play 20 minutes go back to upnp and ports have changed for the devices. One says 9074 one will say 9028 and so on. And at that point a lot of network features have disappeared and we have to reset the console and everything starts to work fine. For a while then goes back. I thought console but happens on all of them. I appreciate your replies.
That's an interesting observation, great! Are the consoles wired, using wireless, or some mixed connection configs? Does this probably go along with a short connection loss and a disconnection as per the logs (if available)? This could be eg. also an short disconnect on the Internet side, a DHCP renewal, ...
Still convinced we see something between an oddity and a bug of the UPnP PMP implementation on the RAX200 here. Not sure about the best way to get Netgear's consumer BU for once to listen to us...
- So I have two hard wired into the router and two hard wired into extender. I do get interruption or lag outs where I will get notification Lan cable disconnected. Yet my mic stays connected to game chat the whole time. It’s really weird. I’m not really sure how to read the logs part. Most stuff I know has just been self taught trial and error and picking brains where I can. I have the extender using one of the 5 mhz wifi channels and dedicated just for the kids. I did a reservation on that address also. I may try using moca if that would help the situation but not sure that will. But after this still maybe a glitch with no work around. So I’m not sure grab one from asus or wait for firmware or new one coming out to see if they fix the bugs. I even tried downgrading in firmware as we didn’t have these systems before xmas so was no way to test them before hand. I do realize a lot of having issues could be solved I’m guessing by ipv6 but metronet does not offer that in my area. The ps5 just spoofs one where as the Xbox will not. Schumaku thank you for being patient and responding quickly as this post has been here for a few weeks with no response.
