Re: Two PCs cannot play on the same network

Hi @kallross!

The best solution for your case is exactly port forwarding. If you're not sure how to do it please take a look at this website which gives you info on how to port forwarding depending on your router model.

Also i link you te official Ea help page in which you can see the ports that need to be opened.

Regards

    I followed those steps, now only one of the PCs can connect to a server. The PC that forwarded the ports to the other is getting the message from the screenshot I previously uploaded.

    Tried everything, same result. What I noticed is that the PC that does the port forwarding cannot connect to a server.

    Hey @kallross make sure that both PC gets different IP from the router/modem that should solve it for you.

    Both IPs are static, and only one PC can connect while the other cannot. The only solution I could think of was using mobile hotspot(which works) but it's a very expensive method.

    Are you using several routers/modems for your home network or 1 hub?
