Hi ,
i have a problem , have 2 gamers in house and can’t play together… why ? sometimes can play between 5-20mins
how can play together with same router ?
best regards
Just connect to the router via Wifi or Lan and you could play at the same time. Maybe you have IP conflict and both PCs take the same IP. Or your ISP is a ¯_(ツ)_/¯ and can’t hold them. But i got a 10MB connection and I’ve connected 4 PCs at the same time and I’ve played a LOL or Overwatch with friends.
we have 300MB but in another game(LOL,OW,Smite,Paragon,CS:GO etc..) we can play together Without any problem only this happens to us in BF1
someone with same problem ?
Search the bf4 forums. There is a way to do it, but I don’t remember. I believe you have to change some router settings.
I will search
What happens? You say you can play for a little bit. Does it kick one of you or crash?
My son and I play BF1 together with no issues. No special setup.
It has a lot to do with ISP, public vs private IPs…etc. It’s a pain to get working if you’re not lucky enough for it to work on your setup…Router is a factor, too.
I had this problem with BF3 and BF4 when playing with 2 PCs on the same network. One PC would always get a connection error upon the other connecting.
Not sure if this will help, but I found this on the Bf4 forums about the same problem:
no work , already test it !
if we play together in some minute aprox. 5-20 mins we kick from server , some time not both
Sounds like you have a NAT router which means you may have a heck of a time getting BF1 to work, if at all. The other games worked because the inbound port wasn’t used the same as in BF1.
Search how to use two PCs with a NAT router. There may be something that works but I suspect an updaded router will be in your future.
Sounds like a familiar problem with CS, COD or Quake Live, with those you can change the ports the game uses to connect to servers by editing the “net_port” (different port for each player) so 2 or more players on the same network can play with each other.
i’ll try it
Eskha, do you have UPNP enabled? (in the router) If not it might help.
I have seen this problem before if I remember right.. you have to give each computer a static IP.. Then add rules for the ports (ALL OF THEM) for EG IF BF1 uses port 220 you have to set one rule for all incoming traffic (on port 220) to go to one computer (192.168.1.85) and the same rule for the the other (192.168.1.86).
Netgear R7500 Nighthawk and ASUS AC1900 are 2 routers that can handle 2 or more PC’s/consoles with no issues.But they’re a little pricey.
There’s some really cheap routers out there (under $30) that will do the job but at the cost of limited features.
UpNp are disable atm. have any tutorial for do it ?
thanks
This is the most likely cause. Once turned off on the router it will work normally. No need for any changes from routers default config appart from that normally.
But if you turn off the router then you will have no internet. So your on about a network switch ??? maybe you have a managed network switch? If that’s the case I would suggest replacing it with a NETGEAR GS205, which works great for small home networks.
As for UPNP is there not a option to turn it on? most just have a on/off..
Still wont work properly…You still have 2 PC’s accessing the same ports from the same IP adrress.Most routers cant handle this type of traffic.
