Suffy1570 Posted October 21, 2024 Share Posted October 21, 2024 I have been using Geofilter with the PC Steam version of Call of Duty since it was released and it works well. With the new Call of Duty being on the gamepass I have started playing the Xbox PC version but Geofilter doesnt seem to work at all with this version of the game. I have tried multiple restarts of both the Router and PC aswell as also doing a factory reset of the Router but It still does not work when playing the Xbox PC version but as soon as I start the Steam version it works normally. Any help would be greatly appreciated as the new Call of Duty is coming out on Friday and would like to have the Geofilter working so I can play the Xbox PC version and don't have to purchase the Steam version.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted October 21, 2024 Administrators Share Posted October 21, 2024 This is something we'll be retesting, in the meantime, in devices if you change the PC to have the device type of a console it should then work again on the Geo-Filter. Make sure to delete the device on the Geo-Filter first, then change the type, then re-add it back to the Geo-Filter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suffy1570 Posted October 21, 2024 Author Share Posted October 21, 2024 Thanks for the quick reply Fraser. How do I go about changing the device type? Is it on the EE app? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted October 21, 2024 Administrators Share Posted October 21, 2024 Yes on the app, I believe if you go on the Manage page > WiFi controls and scroll down you'll see the devices section and you should be able to do it if you tap on the device Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suffy1570 Posted October 21, 2024 Author Share Posted October 21, 2024 I tried that earlier, the only thing I seem to be able to do is rename the device by clicking the three dots at the top right. No options to change the device type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted October 21, 2024 Administrators Share Posted October 21, 2024 I don't have EE unfortunately so I can't easily check, it might be you're not able to do that. When you go to add a device to the Geo-Filter could you provide a screenshot of all the services you have available to choose from please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suffy1570 Posted October 21, 2024 Author Share Posted October 21, 2024 Yes, once choosing device it goes straight to select a game and then enable or disable filtering Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A factory reset will revert it to factory default settings so as though you were setting it up again for the first time, the only thing that persists through is the firmware version you're on. 17 hours ago, Suffy1570 said: Nope. Here is the full list. The team have said it should be working without the workaround I mentioned so they'll be testing it and getting a fix out via the cloud as soon as they can.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted October 25, 2024 Administrators Share Posted October 25, 2024 It will take a little time, they'll be testing BO6 now and then they'll get a total cloud out which should resolve this Suffy1570 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do this: Quit the application/game/client completely Remove device from the Geo-Filter Give PC PlayStation Device Type in the Device Manager Resync from the Geo-Filter Map menu Re-add the device to the Geo-Filter Set up the Geo-Filter how you like Wait 2 minutes Boot up application/game/client Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
