OK great, let us know how you get on. In the mean time we are also testing FIFA 21, so hopefully we'll be able to get to the bottom of this issue.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted February 16, 2021 Administrators Share Posted February 16, 2021 If you just switch Filtering Mode off, does that server become allowed and you get a game server within your radius? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted February 16, 2021 Administrators Share Posted February 16, 2021 Sorry, what I said made no sense. Add that server manually to your allow list, then with Filtering Mode on do you get games within your radius? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you played the game on another platform that wasn't the PS5 and if so did it work? Does it seem to be a PS5 specific issue do you think? Is there a FIFA 21 demo on PS5?

SlowFoShow Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 This isnt specific to the PS5, I have the same issue on PC, it tries to connect me to South Africa, USA, India and somewhere in the Middle East, this only happens in friendlies because its P2P, likely there is no available player nearby so it connects to a random player outside of the filter, weirdly though on my standard router it always connects to low ping games so it must be finding players nearby every time. Something is wrong with the filtering for P2P. Its annoying as sometimes I have to search 30+ times to get someone within my radius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P2P should be good, what times of day do you usually play? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just around western Europe, my standard router picks up friendly matches with low ping so I switch to that to finish objectives. If I use the same settings on the server based game modes I have no issue at all. There is definitely a problem as its night and day between the modes.

If you are playing in FUT Friendlies then friendlies are NOT P2P - they use dedicated servers - most of the are just miscategorised by dumaOS as P2P. This seems to be the one f the major issues with Fifa and netduma routers. They said they would "look into this" about 3 months ago - nothing has happened and most likely nothing will happen.... Fifa and netduma is a really bad match.. Instead find ur old cheap router and block the servers manually as described here: https://inputdelay.com/blocking-servers/ - that works..... The fifa servers are still bad, but at least then u can choose which servers not to connect to...Fifa will never work properly with ur netduma router Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's unfair to say they will never work together as they do, can it be improved? Of course, everything can be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange - have you then found a better explanation on why about every complaint (and there are many!!!) with the geofilter is why it connects to servers (labeled as peers) outside the filter? I have spend three months trying to block those servers - it can block most servers that is classified as a dedicated server and not the ones that are as peers (almost all of them hosted by ID3)... Im glad you say that - then I'm sure you all have been working really hard on fixing the issues the past three months - and i am REALLY looking forward to see the results - hopefully they are worth the wait......

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted February 20, 2021 Administrators Share Posted February 20, 2021 Ping Assist or changing settings while on the game will do that. As always we'll continue to try and improve as much as we can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
