Ip fragmentation PS4 bug?


Recommended Posts

I'd like to bring rid to the attention of the devs as it seems like a bug with the Netduma connecting to PSN. my setup is modem > RT-N66U > Netduma. Netduma in DMZ on RT-N66U, upnp off on both routers but port forwarding set on Netduma for PSN. MTU set to 1492 on both Netduma and RT-N66U.

 

When doing the connection test on PS4 it can go 1 of 3 ways:

 

- Test completes and passes all steps.

 

- Test completes but informs me that router doesn't support ip fragmentation.

 

- Test fails on nat type.

 

The fact that it is so inconsistent could lead me to believe that whatever the issue is intermittent and a bug. I felt it was worth bringing up to the devs to look into. I know others have had a similar issue and it could be worth looking into.

I have just recently started experiencing this same problem it happens when the ps4 obtains  everything automatically. Im a tech wiz and have put alot of time into finding out the solution. for now i have found manually inserting mtu on PS4 values fixes it. but the developers need to look into the ps4 ip fragmentation bug. automatic causes this  issue. i will also recieve random failed nat types. I have done this test with every piece of equipment my modem alone, my asus router alone, and everything's fine this is a sole issue with my netduma. And judging by many other posts lately others are having the same problem. I love my router but this issue tends to be very consistent its not any of the users its something after this new update I am a happy netduma user for a year now and have studied all the small easily fixable problems with this router. I Hope as a community with the developers we can fix this.

As A7 said everyones home network is different.I can make it happen everytime I turn in my PS4 simply by running wireless,which I don't do but was curious as to what would happen and the IP fragmentation error was the result.

 

But as others have said if the PS4 is set to everything on automatic i.e... the easy set up instead of custom

Does that have any adverse affect with online gaming if it were to work? I can't try it until tomorrow though now.

 

If it works you won't have fragmentation which means it won't have any adverse affects.

 

Do an MTU test online to find your optimum.
