Cannot play bf6 beta with roomate

Me and my brother live in an apartment together. We just got home from work this morning. We tried hopping into the bf6 beta to play with eachother (I'm on PC and he is on ps5) and the game won't let us both log into the servers at the same time. If one of us are in the menu, when the other person launches the game and logs into the servers, it kicks the other person out of their session. Very frustrating considering we were very excited to play with eachother. Now we are  not even buying the game anymore if only one of us can play at a time. We both have separate accounts and systems but can't play simultaneously on the same network. Is anyone else experiencing this same issue or have a fix?

    I saw another post about this, there is apparently an issue with two accounts on the same wifi (Im assuming its just an IP thing) playing the game. I imagine there is a fix on the way for that but the only self fix would be to either use a VPN or one of you use a mobile hotspot (Assuming it would be good enough to handle the load)

    I have already tried using a VPN on my pc. Doesn't seem to work. Using a Hotspot would probably work but it would rack up my data on my phone bill so I am not willing to do that lol

  • Exact same issue with me and my two brothers. We even bought a super expensive router so all three of us can play at the same time with good connection. If any of us is playing, the others either can't connect or can connect but the game has like 1,000 ping.

    Literally all other online games work just fine, all three of us have connection speeds over 450mbps.

    Love the game, but I'm not buying this **bleep** if only one person in the house can play at a time.

    If you find out a fix, let me know.

    Can confirm
    My brother -ps5
    Me - PC
    We can't join into a same game(same server), living in a same house, same WIFI. We are in a same party. What happened is One will join and the other will be on the main menu. 



    EA fix it... 

  • you all need to edit your router NAT configurations to be type OPEN instead of strict or disabled.
