Can only connect 50% of servers

Since I started playing Hardline, I am only able to connect to 50% of the servers I attempt to play on.

I've rebooted my PS4, and rebooted my modem. Still it takes me multiple attempts before I finally connect to a server I can play on.

I've also used my History browser to connect to servers I've played on before. And that doesn't always work.

Suggestions? Thanks.

    Is your PS4 updated with the latest firmware and have you tried to use a wired connection rather than the PS4 wifi?

    Cheers

    I'll check to make sure my ps4 is updated to the latest firmware. But, I've only played on wired. I've never trusted the idea of playing over wifi.

    I'll report back my findings after updating my firmware. Btw, I've also opened up the ports on my router to the specs recommended in the Help section.

    See you soon.

    Cheers,
    Todd

    I opened up the recommended ports and now I am able to connect to the servers and play. Port forwarding was the cure, it seems.
