what port do I need to allow to play Sims4 online

Question

I need to know all the destination IP and ports needed to play The Sims 4 online. And, also, what port are needed for ingress or egress communications (and in a ideal world to what purpose they serves). I need this information to configure my firewall. Its missing from https://help.ea.com/ca/help/faq/opening-tcp-or-udp-ports-for-connection-issues/

Just whitelist the Game in your firewall all necessary ports will be open to it.

Thanks but I have no such thing as a game whitelist option, it's a secured firewall on another device...

Try to start the game then in the logs look for what was blocked.
