“Server Disconnected” MW2

[xxmiraclesxx]

So I have internet access, can login and play other blizzard games like Diablo 4 but everytime I boot up mw2 I get hit with a “server disconnected” I’ve reset pc, and router and still no luck, as well as turned off the geo filtering thinking maybe that was hindering my ability to connect but nope.  Kind of at a loss on this

[Netduma Fraser]

Is this MW2 or Warzone?

[xxmiraclesxx]

MW2, I get this as soon as I open the game

[Netduma Fraser]

If you connect to your ISP modem/router do you get the same issue?

[xxmiraclesxx]

I didn’t before no, never had this issue before today when installing the netduma r2.  Seems to also be a problem on my Xbox as well

[Netduma Fraser]

Double check again but if not disable QoS fully from the Congestion Control menu  and then try again please

[xxmiraclesxx]

Unfortunately still the same issue 

[Netduma Fraser]

Direct to the modem does it still happen? 

After a factory reset what settings have you changed exactly?

[xxmiraclesxx]

After factory reset only thing I changed was the QoS off.  Still getting same issue 

[Netduma Fraser]

[xxmiraclesxx]

By direct to modem you mean plug pc directly into modem?

Thats exactly what Fraser means.. Connect directly to your modem with your PC and see if you can connect then..  Basically take the R2 out of the equation.. Post back your results then..

Thanks!

Zippy.

Directly into modem it opens fine and goes straight into the game

[Netduma Fraser]

Interesting, if you get the IP of your PC from the Device Manager then put that in the DMZ in settings, can you then launch the game successfully? Once you've checked take it out of the DMZ as it is a security risk.

[xxmiraclesxx]

My attempts to locate the DMZ zone have failed along with attempting to get into my modem settings as I can’t match the MAC address on the back of it to any connected to my pc even when hardwired directly into it again so I’m at a loss for how to do that

[Krush]

Hi !

To find the DMZ on the R2, you must go to the network settings level and enter the DHCP IP address of your PC by reserving it (check the box)!

[xxmiraclesxx]

With DMZ checked  and reserving IP it still doesn’t want to connect

[Netduma Fraser]

Could you just provide a screenshot of the Geo-Filter and QoS page please? Just so I can double check they're disabled as nothing else should have the capability of blocking it. 

Have you made any Traffic Controller rules or done port forwarding etc?

[xxmiraclesxx]

I tried port forwarding and traffic rules before I factory reset the router with no luck. 

[Netduma Fraser]

On the Congestion Control panel click the  icon and disable it from there please then see if you can connect

[xxmiraclesxx]

Still can’t connect.  On a shot in the dark I read about just using a vpn to get through and tried that.  Using NordVPN just on my pc it let me boot up but I’m figuring that’s cause it’s bypassing all of the dumaos stuff since it’s just on my pc and not on the router itself?

[Netduma Fraser]

It will still be going through the router, try using it with HybridVPN instead so it's directly on the router, then see if that works

[xxmiraclesxx]

So with hybridVPN setup it now lets me into the game, but it doesn’t actually connect to any matches it just searches for match <200 ping 

[Netduma Fraser]

Are you using a VPN server close to your location?

[xxmiraclesxx]

Yes, using closest to where I live
