Ive been having trouble joining Xbox chats with the geofilter on....i remember being able to add a friend to the allowed list to help with party chats before.  Can this still be done?  Hopefully that will fix the problem

Also, im on the east coast of USA, i was playing previously before with out friend set on the west coast as i found those servers to be a better game experience...once he joined my lobby i was connecting back to the east coast servers where we both actually live and could not connect to the west coast where i set my location and radius to

What game are you playing when trying to add him/play?

So you are actually connecting outside the radius? If so, try this:

  • Disable GeoLatency
  • Disable PingAssist (set it to 0,0)
  • Enable Strict Mode
  • Disable Fast Search

Then restart the game or wait 10 minutes (in the lobby in the game). If that doesn't work, reboot PC/Console

Im currently using those settings and it still happens...the chat problem still exists as well...I cant use the geo filter at all if we want to use the xbox party chat, I start a party and it just constanlty says "connecting" on the xbox chat party.  My NAT gets messed up at times and says problem with teredo address? So the geo filter is basically useless if you want to have a private xbox party chat.

Still no fix for this???

if anyone else on xbox is having this same issue regarding xbox party chat, the only way ive been able to get it to work is to turn "strict" and "filter" off on the geo filter, have friend join game lobby, then start an xbox chat party....only down side is, once you put strict and filter back on, it will not filter on the geo filter, so the geo filter is useless on this router if you want to be able to use an xbox party chat unfortunately.

Sorry for the delay, had a lot of topics to reply to over the holidays. In the Xbox Network Settings make sure it is using port 3074 and shutdown the router fully - not in the instant on/standby state. What is the model of the modem/router the R3 is connected to and how have you set that up - with the R3 in its DMZ, modem/bridge mode?

I understand you guys have been busy for sure, and i appreciate the help!  This one is just driving me bananas lol

 

My R3 is my only modem/router, it is plugged directly into the ONT for my internet provider.

The r3 is the only device on the ONT

I have always seen that port on the xbox when looking on the Duma Web

I can get it to work if i take a geo filters and strict modes off, but then i cant play the servers I want or filter the game

Still doesn’t work…and now my friend is in my game lobby and it’s connecting outside of my server radius…I was just playing for an hour by myself and was connecting to the 3 areas I have outlined no problem?
