skschatzman Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Geo-filter no longer works or shows on the map after updating to V2.3.2.56! I performed a factory reset and reset everything from scratch. Nothing. I cleared my Chrome/IE browser cache. Nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 8, 2019 Administrators Share Posted September 8, 2019 Zoom out of the entire map, delete the device and flush the cloud. When the taking too long box appears wait a minute and refresh the page. Re-add the device and boot up the console and game, do you see anything then? Double check the device in Device Manager and match the IP with the IP shown on the console itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a peculiar issue indeed... Could you factory reset the router, then leave your Geo-Filter and other settings exactly the way they are (without zooming in either), add your console to the Geo-Filter and boot up the game? Do you see anything then? This step will rule out all router settings and most user errors, so it's vital that you don't change any settings after the factory reset. Could you screenshot the result?

I already performed a factory reset. I only zoomed out for the screenshot. I usually leave it at 100%. Factory reset did nothing just like the other suggestions. I tested this on chrome and edge with 2 different computers. nothing. Geo-filter worked perfectly on the previous firmware. The issue only occurred after updating to the latest firmware.

Netduma Alex Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Could you turn off the console (completely, not rest mode), then delete it from the Geo-Filter and from the Device Manager, then add it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All basic troubleshooting tips you guys tell everyone were attempted. Deleted device and flushed the cloud Browser cache deleted Hard reset (unplug and power drain) router and console. Factory reset router with console turned off and unplugged. browser cache deleted before Re-input all settings from scratch. I have tested this with 3 different computers using both Chrome and edge. Results never change. 1 of them is a new laptop that had never been used on the network before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 10, 2019 Administrators Share Posted September 10, 2019 Just to double check, you've confirmed via device manager that it is the correct device? You don't have two versions of the device, one wired & one WiFi and added the wrong one? Do a speed test on the console, does anything appear on the map? If not does it show that it is using bandwidth in the Network Monitor? Does the device appear offline on the Device Manager even when it is online?

I never setup WiFi on my console. There are 2 other PS4 slim in my house, but use a guest wifi. I double checked the Mac address and IP matched my console. The device always appears online when it is on. Yes it shows bandwidth usage. Speed test works flawlessly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do not belong to me. They are my roommates and I will not ask them to use them. They were never set up or used on geo-filter. Only my console is.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 10, 2019 Administrators Share Posted September 10, 2019 Have you done any port forwarding for the console at all? Is the console connecting using automatic settings or manual? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally I manually configure all network devices and assign IP addresses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 10, 2019 Administrators Share Posted September 10, 2019 This is really very confusing, I don't see why an update would stop this working. Could you remove the device from the Geo-Filter, downgrade and then re-add it - check it works. If it does then remove it from the Geo-Filter again then re-upgrade to .56, preferably do a factory reset here but understand if you don't want to then re-add the device to the Geo-Filter and try again. Wondering if the having the device added when you did the upgrade maybe caused the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a side note, It worked perfectly fine while playing the Modern Warfare beta on PC. It did not work while playing the beta on my PS4 Pro. Also still doesn't work with BO4 on PS4 Pro.

Netduma Alex Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 I haven't come across this bug before... Are you sure that you've got the right console added to the Geo-Filter? Remember that WiFi and Ethernet both generate a seperate device in Device Manager, so you should probably rename them to make sure you're using the right one.

I am hardwired and did not setup wifi for my console. I am not the only one who is experiencing this issue. There is another thread with the exact same issue.

Netduma Alex Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 So it only stops working on the latest firmware version? That's interesting, I wonder which change made in the update caused this problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried resetting everything up again and now I am getting Geo-filter to show the connected servers, but all server connections are peer. I am at a loss.

Netduma Alex Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Is it working apart from the connections appearing as peers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
