BOLDSHOTER Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 stumbled upon a problem playing IW what some of us are facing as well, where the geo filter, congestion control etc.. panels are loading very slow, it starts after a few matches on Infinite Warfare, would like some feedback why IW may be doing this could answer all the questions many have asked.

Homie Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 I was having the same problem until I removed the port forwarding for IW ... Don't just disable the port, remove it and apply ... Not really sure why is doing that, but it's temp fix for now ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIG__DOG Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 yeah, i do not use port forwarding at all and never have and just use upnp with no problems! port forwarding is a security risk as it leaves those ports open and vulnerable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonicBoom Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 I'll check this out tomorrow. For me, on Xbox, my GUI has been working fine with manual port forwarding while the Geo is disabled. I'll put the Geo on and see what happens... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll put the Geo on and see what happens... that's weird must be certain ports that relate for the PS4, not the Xbox. I had to delete the ports after that everything worked fine no issues sense deleting the ports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b00stg0d Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 · Hidden by Netduma Fraser, November 15, 2016 - No reason given Hidden by Netduma Fraser, November 15, 2016 - No reason given yeah, i do not use port forwarding at all and never have and just use upnp with no problems! port forwarding is a security risk as it leaves those ports open and vulnerable. Backwards! UPnP is the security risk. It allows rogue programs to open any port they see fit and allow access to your network/devices. Manual port forwarding allows the ports to hit only that static address if the Port is in use and requested by that device at at time. Period. UPnP is the largest security hole in modern networks and most Admins worth their salts will NOT allow for it. They might tell you this shit at Best Buy or whatever tiddly wink place you guys learned networking but it isn't true. Pick up any book on basic principles of Network Security. One rogue device can impose it's will on your network with UPnP enabled. Jesus more misinformation. Link to comment
