Bump
Anyone who knows can you please just type the STEPS that we gotta do ! Please .
Can’t forward my router, my network type doesn’t allow it. Need a fix ‘‘on my pc’’.
you shouldn’t have to open any ports if your router uses upnp. opening ports is kind of a security risk (though upnp is also a risk according to some - but probably much less than leaving ports wide open and essentially exposing your PC directly to the internet permanently)
In the instance of needing to port forward more than one PC in the same household, you’ll need to do the ipconfig command on all the PC’s in the house and set up a rule for one PC and then copy the rule and then add the local IP of the other PC’s to your router’s configuration panel.
I know EA doesn’t give a crap about this topic, we are not enough people having it. -.-
^This!
I just got this error 2 Error Game disconnected: Client closed down connection. Check your network connection and make sure that port 3659 (UDP) is open.
I did also not changed anything was just in the game and again not by restriction: disallowed program/driver but
Game disconnected: Client closed down connection. Check your network connection and make sure that port 3659 (UDP) is open.
DICE what about a Free Battlefield 4 Shortcut Error kit???
Collect them all. to receive your ERROR MEDAL!!!
What’s next?
Why Dice is not active on this forum to help out?
They are working to hard on Battlefield 5 already just to collect more money right?
Sorry pissing me off all the time we get crap after a update where is your test team? ow wait cost money right?
Since the beta, I had to use Smart Port Forwarding to forward 3659, because my router kept giving me an IP conflict message, but a few months ago, I tinkered around with the settings and forwarded it. I stopped needing that program, but now, even with 3659 and every single other required port forwarded on my router, as well as running Smart Port Forwarding to doubly forward 3659, I can’t even spectate some servers.
I only get it in couple servers that I play.
Try different servers to check it.
Also port forward 3659 don’t help that makes me think that it’s not our side the problem.
Wut the fk
Can you by chance explain by what you mean a rule? My buddy and I have this issue where we cannot play with each other in the same server that is populated. We used to be able to do that but when they patched in jan we cannot play with each other. We are both roommates so we dont really have any work around currently. Any help would be great.
It is DICE/EA’s problem that they will address after they are done fixing the supposed sound loop bug. Hopefully they can fix it asap. I stopped having the client closed down connection issue when I forwarded 3659 with Smart Port Forwarding. Like I said, I later messed around on my router’s website and successfully forwarded 3659, eliminating the need for SPF, but the problem came back a month ago and I had to use the program again, despite already and yes still having 3659 and every other required port forwarded.
Ok, since reading most of these so helpful tricks in here gives me a serious headache…
- Port forwarding will NOT SOLVE THIS PROBLEM. No incoming ports are needed, and because of that, forwarding does absolutely NOTHING.
- Forwarding a port to 127.0.0.1 (localhost) is beyond silly…
- You can’t forward a port to more than one IP.
- Installing “Port Forwarding” Software on your PC will get you nowhere. Your PC can’t forward packets that die off at the router.
- This error has been in this game since the beginning - it just got a shiny new message.
- Only DICE or maybe server owners can fix this error. It’s not client side.
Seriously, dudes… if you don’t know what you’re saying, please refrain from posting your “knowledge”. It does not help others. Really. I mean it.
Smart Port Forwarding actually did work for a while. I was unable to forward 3659 in my router due to an IP conflict, but after months of using SPF, I messed around in my settings and noticed I couldn’t forward 3659, but if I forwarded another port, then edited it to 3659, Netgear would let me save it for some reason. The program did work, though now, having 3659 forwarded in my router, as well as running Smart Port Forwarding isn’t working. It did work, but won’t now because of whatever EA and DICE did.
If you go into your routers setup page, Usually by typing something like 192.1681.1 in your browser address bar, You’ll be taken to your router’s software page.
There you should have information regarding your connection along with a setup page.
You need to go into the setup, for me.. I can do it through the Virtual server page which lets me add each additional PC to the network and add a port range to forward.
Like so.
I see that a moderator has been on this forum.. so any chance they could comment instead of just deleting posts and then leaving without a comment???
The other question is: Where is the source of the information that claims we need to open a listening port at all? I seriously doubt this is needed for a client to server game.
Forwarding 3659 is not the solution to this problem. I have had it forwarded for a while, and additionally tried running Smart Port Forwarding, which I shouldn’t need to.
Same problem. UPNP Disabling didn’t helped at all. My router is an old DIR-300 (D-LINK company). Hope DICE will fix it, becouse i think it’s not a problem from OUR side. Port forwarding… well, it’s not helping too. Couse i have dinamic IP.
