Lmao- so true. But I’ve seen posts indicating people switch routers and the issue goes away. I’ll see if I can dig those up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DARKNESS Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 @DimeRider27I think I know what your talking about and yes some routers have some communication issues though it not necessarily the routers but a client issue related to drivers which need to be updated on their end. I don't fully understand that too much but it a thing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 16 Administrators Share Posted September 16 Looks like from the main comment on that thread, if you remove all but the last port forwarding rule you have, it may help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 16 Administrators Share Posted September 16 There isn't any harm in doing TCP/UDP so change it to that just to make sure DimeRider27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARKNESS Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 @DimeRider27Seems to be a PC specific issue as your not the only user as shown https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fU6yfxWHDg and the only alternative seems to be using a VPN so let us know if what you tried worked.

My son tried logging in around 9pm or so est and my pc was on and it took him like 20-30 minutes but was finally able to get online. To me, that seems more like a network issue, otherwise it would only be my pc having an issue. Otherwise, ill just keep trying and or use a vpn.

If it was a true network issue, you could try for 20 minutes or 20 hours and the result would be the same, unless that issue/conflict is resolved it wouldn't allow you in, unless perhaps it's not triggering a port opening but you have a port forward so wouldn't be that - did you do just that port rule we mentioned?

I mean I dont disagree, but we have no clue what traffic is flowing through activision at certain times in the process. I guess if there is a brief instant where the traffic allows one of us through then yes still in theory it could be a network issue. I did try just the one port forward but still not letting me in today. I tried just 3478 on UDP and that still didnt work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 19 Administrators Share Posted September 19 As a test could you make a guest wifi network and have the device connected to that instead of the normal wifi and then see if it works please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We tested a bit more over the weekend. If my son logged in first, I struggled to get in, using the vpn allowed me in. But again, we dont want to do that.

When doing the VPN method, are you only applying it to yourself or both of you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DimeRider27 Posted September 23 Author Share Posted September 23 only to myself. I have not set up vpn on the xr1000. I was more after the hybrid functionality there but when I got everything hooked up a couple years back I found this wasnt an option yet on the xr1000. I still dont think it is but maybe....

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 23 Administrators Share Posted September 23 It may sound counter intuitive but could you disable UPnP and port forwarding, also no DMZ please then see if it works please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 23 Administrators Share Posted September 23 Please try in this order, testing after each change: Disable SIP ALG on the WAN page Disable port scan and dos protection on the WAN page Disable QoS fully from the Congestion Control Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, this looked like it rebooted the routers settings so not sure if this was a fluke due to the settings being refreshed. Ill have to wait for another test scenario Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
