What does that mean? I
f the PS5 and desktop computer are away from your home network, then you won't be able to use your Internet connection unless it is on a mobile network.
What Netgear hardware do you own?
What are you trying to do?
What are you doing and where does it go wrong?
Hello, thank you for looking into this.
What Netgear hardware do you own?
nighthawk AX6000 WiFi Cable Modem Router (CAX80)
What are you trying to do?
I want to play ps remote play when I'm outside home through my ps5 in my livingroom.
What are you doing and where does it go wrong?
I think my netgear cable modem router is blocking connection from outside of home.
In order to connect to my ps5 for remoteplay, I think I need to adjust setting so I can connect to my devices at home from anywhere.
Just to clarify,
I have nighthawk AX6000 WiFi Cable Modem Router (CAX80)
What I'm trying to do is playing game remotely through my ps5 and desktop pc at home when I'm outside.
As for PS5, it's connected to internet with wired cable. I can't play PS remote play when I trying to to use it remotely when I'm outside since I can't connect to my PS5.
As for my desktop, I'm trying to use steamlink to play game.

You mean you want to sit in the backyard and connect your PS5 to the wifi from your CAX80?
Forget about the "outside" bit. Work out how to connect the PS5 to the wifi when you are sitting next to the router. Get that right and the wifi should follow you.
What happens when you try to connect the PS5 to the wifi from your CAX80?
Likewise the PC. Is that wired into the CAX80? Or is it connected over wifi?
- Hello, ps remote play is working when I’m connected to same wifi as my router.
What I can’t figuring out is using remote play when I’m on different wifi or using cellular data.
For instance, my home is in LA and I want to do remote play when I’m at other state.
