Re: Can't connect to server on pc

Hello @Draftmission 

For Battlefield on PC, please enable the following online ports on your connection:

TCP: 80, 443, 9988, 20000-20100, 22990, 17502, 42127
UDP: 3659, 14000-14016, 22990-23006, 25200-25300

For specific instructions on how to open your ports, please visit http://www.portforward.com/ or contact your router manufacturer.

Also see this EA Help article for information on opening TCP or UDP ports: http://help.ea.com/en/article/opening-tcp-or-udp-ports-for-connection-issues/

Good luck.

    Still doesn't work. In the firewall settings it says that all ports are open for BF4 and it worked a week ago. Haven't changed anything on my computer sice then.

    Try it:

    Open a port in Windows Firewall

    If Windows Firewall is blocking an app and you want to allow that app to receive info through the firewall, you can usually do that by selecting the app in the list of allowed apps, as described in the previous section.

    However, if the app isn't listed, you might need to open a port (a way for apps to receive info through the firewall). For example, to play a multiplayer game with friends online, you might need to open a port for the game so that the firewall allows the game info to reach your PC. A port stays open all the time, so be sure to close ports that you don't need open anymore.

    1. Open Windows Firewall by swiping in from the right edge of the screen, tapping Search (or if you're using a mouse, pointing to the upper-right corner of the screen, moving the mouse pointer down, and then clicking Search), enteringfirewall in the search box, and then tapping or clicking Windows Firewall.

    2. Tap or click Advanced settings. Administrator permission required You might be asked for an admin password or to confirm your choice.

    3. In the Windows Firewall with Advanced Security dialog box, in the left pane, tap or click Inbound Rules, and then, in the right pane, tap or click New Rule.

    4. Follow the instructions on your screen.
