Post by Warlord678 »

I'm done with this game for right now until I figure out whats wrong. I can't join anyones game, I've tried opening every port, I've tried reseting my router, nothing works. Once I get something figured out ill be back.

Get a cable, it will solve your problem. ESO doesn't like wireless routers.

I hope you find a reliable connection soon, Warlord; we'll miss you.

My internet has been a pain, too. It's connected to my phone service, and whenever the phone rings lately, it causes my internet connection to get interrupted. So I just unplugged the phone and use my cell now 8)

this is weird warlord, do you remember 2 days ago when you could connect to me?
i guess in your case, portforwarding(i know you said you did that, but did you do it right?), override adress and override port for example solves all the problems, there are also some feeatures like ip sharing/switching or DMZ which some ISPs have which result in failing to join games and/or dropping out of game(ip swtiching)

have you tried using your router as a modem?? just try it if you can join better like that and switch back to your router working as a router
(should be in your router options, my fritzbox for example can be accessed by simply writing fritz.box into my browser or the ip address of my router)

Kaiser, maybe the filter for the phone isn't working. Try to reconnect it (making sure it's hooked up properly) or replace it and you should be just fine.

Good luck Warlord!

I figured out my problem yes. Dan hosts at least 99% of the games, when im on, and i get a FTJ. I also got a FTJ on alot of other games, once I made the changes I did this morning I could join everyone elses game but dans. So obviously me and dan have a connection problem.

Is there a way to fix a connection problem between two peers, or is that pretty much impossible?

Try getting a third party to host or join from the game browser, sometimes that works.
