Geo Fence not working on warzone


Recommended Posts

I’ve tried everything I could to make it work, but it won’t lock my device to a region, and when I setup in South America servers, I just get unable to connect to a data center, even tho there’s servers in that region, how can I fix it? Router is a xr500

Do this:

  1. Quit the application/game/client completely
  2. Remove device from the Geo-Filter
  3. Give PC PlayStation Device Type in the Device Manager
  4. Resync from the Geo-Filter Map menu
  5. Re-add the device to the Geo-Filter
  6. Set up the Geo-Filter how you like
  7. Wait 2 minutes
  8. Boot up application/game/client

It should work better then. Are you trying to force servers really far away though? If so you're likely hitting their ping limit which is why you can't connect.

I will try this now, but it always worked just fine, I’m in the US, and always played in South America servers, ping is between 150-176ms

i will let you know if this new method worked

They are counteracting VPNs now, part of that will be detecting abnormally high pings so you could be getting classed as using a VPN and being prevented from joining those servers

I used Netduma my whole life with no issues, it makes no sense for them to block geo fencing, I will check now if it worked

Netduma is not updated or is not detecting the South America servers, because there’s 2, Santiago and Brazil, once I’m in the lobby and search, it says unable to connect to a data center, then I look the the geo filter, it shows no servers.

They're not blocking Geo-Filtering, they're preventing people with really high pings connecting essentially. 

The above is normal when you boot up the game with a radius over an area - it won't always show the servers you can connect to. 

Zoom out fully when it happens, there is likely an authentication server being blocked, add that to your allow list and you should be able to continue - you may need to do this a few times to get all the authentication servers in that area. If you provide us with the IDs for those we can get them allowed.
