Hybrid VPN for Warzone

[Reggie89]

Hi,

I want to add CoD: Warzone to my VPN services, but i cant find call of duty in the basic service list. Can somebody help me in settting this up?

 

Many thanks for your help!

Hey, welcome to the forum!

What platform are you playing on? If a PC you can just use the Games Console service, otherwise you can have a look at the ports recommended for port forwarding the game and enter those.

[Reggie89]

Thank you for the welcome, happy to be part of the community. 

Should have mentioned that I'm on PC, so games console service is the one to choose? 

[Reggie89]

Feel confusing as it says xbox when i do so

 

[Netduma Fraser]

Yes you can choose that, or ports specifically. Yes it's fine that it shows up as Xbox. 

[Reggie89]

Hi Fraser, doesnt work when its on game console unfortunately. Something else I can do? Not sure which ports I should select for warzone

 

[Netduma Fraser]

What doesn't work exactly, is the goal security/to change the IP or to change your location to get easier games elsewhere?

[Reggie89]

Hi Fraser, if I change my desktop in device manager to a playstation the VPN is applied to all services and it works to my needs, only thing is that I then also stream Twitch over the VPN which is unnessecary. However when I adjust the desktop into device manager to computer and apply the services to 'Game console' it dont think it sees Warzone as a part of that service (wild guess: maybe because I launch from Battle.net and not game console?). Any idea on how to get the VPN to work just for warzone?

[Netduma Liam]

OK, perhaps you could try VPNing the specific ports for Warzone:

TCP: 3074,27014-27050.
UDP: 3074,3478,4379-4380,27000-27031,27036.

Trying to fill this in, but never done this before. Could help me with what to pit in which field? 

[Netduma Fraser]

You can make 4 rules, I've narrowed them down to these down below, in each rule make the Source ports:
Start - 1
End - 65535

If there is just one port make it the start and end for Destination, if there is a range then make the start the first port and the end the second listed, for example:

Source
Start - 1
End - 65535
Destination
Start - 27000
End - 27050
Protocol
TCP/UDP

Rules:
UDP:

1. 3478
2. 4379 - 4380

TCP/UDP:

1. 3074
2. 27000 - 27050

[Reggie89]

Thanks, understand how to fill it in now.

I get the following message:

Next to this, I can only select my device ones for one rule. When I want to add a second rule my desktop does not appear in the list, what am I doing wrong?

[Netduma Fraser]

What rule did you enter when that error came up?

Are you trying to add one of the same rules for another device? That won't work.

[Reggie89]

Tried all the rules you gave me, just to be sure tried this one again just now

Source
Start - 1
End - 65535
Destination
Start - 27000
End - 27050
Protocol
TCP/UDP

And I am trying to add 4 rules as instructed but after the first I can only click on 'add device' where my Desktop is not visible anymore or 'add service' where I can only overwright the first rule I just entered. 

 

 

 

[Netduma Fraser]

Can you provide a screenshot of where you're seeing the desktop as not available and that you can't select another service to add more ports?

[Reggie89]

So add the first rule: Advanced > filled in all ports according to your example > got error message as shared earlier > click add device for another rule > desktop not available in device selector

 

[Netduma Fraser]

You just need to select add service for the device and then you can make all the rules you want to apply to that device.

[Reggie89]

No, I can't because it will overwrite the 1st rule, even the basic services I can only add one for my device (and i get the error message). In that case I assume it must have something to do with the error: RPC error 'ERROR_VALIDATION': Validation failed for 'sport'

 

[Netduma Fraser]

I don't think you've been inputting them correctly then as the rules don't overlap, here are all the rules and what they should look like:

Of course for the mode you want it to be Only VPN these services.

[Reggie89]

Recorded my steps, please let me know what I am doing wrong, thanks

 

 

[Netduma Fraser]

Thanks for the video, I don't think you're doing anything wrong there. I have noticed though you're on the older firmware, I'd recommend you upgrade to the latest firmware here then do a factory reset and see if you can input the rules without error.

Hi Fraser, my ISP had an outage due to the snow fall and winds, but now that im back online I can say that the upgrade did the trick. Works like a charm now, thanks for your help!!

[Netduma Fraser]

That's great to hear, thanks for the update!
