Re: Keep Getting Kicked for Having no Ping on Battlefield 4

Look, none of this works !!!

Download the UOTrace program and on THIS page you can find complete tutorial how to trace EA servers. If you can not trace any of them turn off your windows firewall completely for a moment (private and public network) and start UOTrace and trace EA servers again, if you see servers (host names, IP`s pings...) and you will surely see them after the Firewall is turned off, then something is blocked in firewall and you must determine what is that.

You can also test your battlelog are the pings visible, but if UOTrace see EA servers, battlelog will show pings, dont forget to refresh battlelog page with CTRL-F5 (deleting cache only on that page).

Firewall can block a lot of things like origin, pbsvc, punkbuster, some paths... play with outbound rules to see what it is.

I just want to narrow range of problems, this is the only fix for missing ping in BF3 and BF4.

Good luck.

And I found it, in my case blocked prosess was - NT Kernel & System, and now I can see all pings as you can see in the image I provide. Same thing for BF3 and BF4.

First you need to do is to disable your firewall, and refresh BF4 page (it`s easier to test it on web)... and if you see pings then you know it`s something that your firewall is blocking. Enable your firewall.
You need to download Windows Firewall Control here:
https://www.binisoft.org/wfc
When you start Windows Firewall Control for the first time it`s gonna ask you for every program do you want to allow it or not, just once per app. When you done with all of that start the game, enter some battle for 30 seconds and close the game.
Then you need to check logs in Windows Firewall Control, to do that click down-second button (image 1), you should see in the opened box what is blocked (mine box is now empty) (image 2), in my case that was NT Kernel and System, and I just did right click and sad allow this program. If this is not enough you nedd to do same thing to your windows firewall in control panel.
I just show you the way how to easily determine what program or service is blocked.

Bro, that was exactly my problem. My firewall was blocking ntoskrnl.exe that's why my ping was not showing. Once unblocked, working perfectly! Thanks a lot!
