Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 3, 2021 Administrators Share Posted January 3, 2021 Have you added your friends to your allow list? If so do you see anything being blocked on the map when you can't connect? If so allow those and it should work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exe_uz Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Hi, i am having the same problem on PS4, added my friends to the whitelist and still can't hear them. The only resolution is to disable STRICT MODE in the geo filter then it seems to work. It's not ideal having to keep turning the STRICT MODE filter on and off.

There must be something still getting blocked. When you invite them/connect look on the Geo-Filter (unzoomed) is there something being blocked? If so then allow it and then it should work.

Exe_uz Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Thanks for your quick reply Frazer, what would actually be blocked to stop PSN Chat, i thought whitelisting them would be enough? FYI ISP Virgin media, SH3 in modem mode, using UPnP with PS4 IP in DMZ. Don't know if that makes a difference? I've also tried using the port forwarding for recommended ports (deleted rules now) but still get the same results. I'll have a closer look tomorrow when they're online and let you know.

It should be yes, however, if they're starting to use servers, either for authentication or to support the chat then that would need to be allowed also. I don't know for certain if that is the case but something is still being blocked so it makes sense. Your settings are good so won't be a NAT issue. Okay keep us posted!

Exe_uz Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Hi Frazer, it looks like you are right as these 2 servers in NEVADA / OREGON / CALIFORNIA area of America f022b984bf8fd5da and 2b2c430ec9cadbe0 where being blocked. It's just worked with one friend in party chat. Fingers crossed problem solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DjimiDay Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 This has been going on years. The only way I have found is to login and disable strict mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
