(PSN)KrakenUnchained Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 you should work on your router opening the doors the pop up tell you or enabling the UPNP\DMZ (router side anyway) PC or PS4 makes no difference, ports must be opened on the router Give to the PS4 a static IP would help, btw is plenty of guides around on how to do that https://www.google.it/search?safe=off&q=psn+port+forwarding+ps4&oq=opening+ports+ps4&gs_l=serp.1.0.0i71l8.0.0.0.8333.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0..0.0....0...1c..64.serp..0.0.0.Y4ffMgCQhdA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This means that the ports which are required are only opened when requested by a valid program. (Warframe) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Warframe) there are not security issues on PS4, doesnt matter if you go with a DMZ, UPNP or openeing the doors one by one, you will never get viruses or whatever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The PS4 does have security issues, just not in the way that you would expect. Sure you may never be infected by a virus, but you suffer the risk of being snooped on ports by criminals. You also suffer the risk of personal information being exposed no matter how hard you attempt to prevent it. Such things include but are not limited to; PLC header information, browser version etc. Every computer has some sort of security flaw. Anything connected to the internet runs the risk of being hacked or exploited; no matter how hard you try to prevent it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was implying that enabling uPnP would be the better and more logical solution. Due to the fact that it opens the ports on a demand-by basis, it ensures that you remain secure aswell as being able to play online without any issues. I'll end this here before this goes off-topic.

UPNP is not supported from all the routers (especially if the router you are using is branded from your internet provider), static IP and DMZ it usually does as the static IP could be setted up on the PS4 and the DMZ is just a matter of cut off the PS4 from the router. connecting it directly to the internet. Best option around to avoid any kind of connection issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best option around to avoid any kind of connection issues Actually, all routers from 2010 and onwards have it built in since it is a pre-requisite. A static IP address can be set up on the PS4 sure, but your router ultimately has full control over if this is validated or not. Most likely it is not as it assigns a set lease time to each device for it to expire from. So an example would be as follows: Set up a static IP address via the PS4. Wait around 2 weeks for the lease time to expire. A new device connects to the router and is assigned the IP address of the PS4... suddenly we have a issue. A DMZ does not cut the PS4 from the router... it is still mandatory for the PS4 to connect to a router in order to connect to the internet. The DMZ simply allows for a device to bypass the firewall of the router; allowing for any open connections to any server. Nothing more, nothing less.

Maybe in the Country where you live, mine is a 2015 one and dont have UPNP at all, neither port mapping caus the branded firmware, its all about the internet provider choice Modded firmawares? yeah, thats another option if they dont reset your firmware once a month, still DMZ for most users is the only way to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewbaccachris2 Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 also some routers can't handle more than one PS4 - really makes it annoying when you have 2 PS4's and can't route the ports to both consoles :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although occasionally, the second PS4 started getting the strict nat popup. Once that happens, if I close warframe on the first PS4, I'll get the strict nat there as well. I have to reboot the router to correct it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewbaccachris2 Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 mine runs both normally 95% of the time although my parents older version of the router can't handle it and throws up the NAT statement - thus I never go to my parents that often! anyway I think we need to try turning it off and on again! ;-P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
