faulko Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Geo filter on or off, doesnt matter, game starts to load a game/map, then bang, connection lost to host error. Thoughts/ideas? Sorry if its been asked before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 10, 2022 Administrators Share Posted December 10, 2022 Are you seeing anything on the Geo-Filter Map whether it's enabled or not blocked at that time? Could you provide the log from the System Information page and provide the time the disconnect happened as accurately as possible so we can match it to the log?

faulko Posted December 10, 2022 Author Share Posted December 10, 2022 I dont think its a Duma issue. The map looks normal. Demon server and the host that all. Seems the error code it gives me has been around for a while. Same as this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 10, 2022 Administrators Share Posted December 10, 2022 Having a look apparently changing your Activision ID fixes the error, no idea why but worth a try! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faulko Posted December 10, 2022 Author Share Posted December 10, 2022 No idea why my name would cause this Fraser Haven't played the last 2 COD titles and now this BS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 10, 2022 Administrators Share Posted December 10, 2022 Seems ridiculous to me but looking at the error online, quite a few people on reddit said that fixed it for them - it seems there are quite a few bugs in this iteration, I've seen DMZ has quite a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faulko Posted December 10, 2022 Author Share Posted December 10, 2022 I tried changing the name but it doesn't update. Says i have 2 attempts left and i use 1 but name or 2 attempts doesn't change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 10, 2022 Administrators Share Posted December 10, 2022 I think it's one you'll need to have a look around for, doesn't seem to be connection related, someone else said reinstalling the game worked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faulko Posted December 12, 2022 Author Share Posted December 12, 2022 Yeah its odd for sure Its working again now so hopefully that wont happen again. Netduma Liam and Netduma Fraser 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TODDzillaInLA Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Theres a easier fix, cleal local save game data and proifle then dont turn geo filter on to the game is loaded, they added new name servers to stop people from using vpn's.

RobBob Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 Could this help with my issue of it not finding a game while using a vpn on pc do you think? It will find a game on ps5 but not on pc. Both using the same account and running through vpn on my R2 router. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think they may be cracking down on VPN IPs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve even tried using openvpn client with a modified file and not going through my Netduma. Nothings working. I have read on discord that only some people are affected and some aren’t. I don’t know if it’s a pc issue but if it was then why does it find a game without the vpn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 16, 2022 Administrators Share Posted December 16, 2022 Try putting the whole device behind the VPN instead, if it's not working through the normal client then it's likely they're banning VPN IPs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you could be right. It started searching at a high ping though so I might try a closer server. Netduma Fraser 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobBob Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 It still won’t find a game on a uk vpn server so I’m guessing your right and they have banned vpn ips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing that’s confusing me is with sbmmoff, it apparently doesn’t change your IP but there’s still people having the same issue with that. I don’t really want to buy that or a static IP if it’s not going to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
