    NAT type strict PC

    Is there any way to fix this? My matchmaking queues are insane and I can't find any players on 4v4 or 2v2.

    Yeah cause the NAT type is strict so we're only able to find matches against players with the same nat type

    Wrong! With Strict you are only able to connect to person who is Open. Open person can connect to anyone.

    It is your router not the game, youd have to go into your router and change the connection/firewall settings.

    Oh sorry, I saw on another forum that people were saying that strict NAT can be matches against only the same type.

    I know, I forwarded a bunch of ports, but I don't know the exact ones for this game. Also UPnP is enabled so I don't know what I could do. Windows Firewall is disabled too.

    Problem may relate even to your ISP. Example when using 4G-network. Some network ports are disabled by ISP side. Some ISPs gives unrestricted 4G for extra cost.

    Also depending your settings (hardware) do you have example modem + router? If you have separate hardware then Is bridged mode supported or otherwise you may get double NAT.

    There is other countless reasons why it won't work. I would start with your ISP and asking is the connection their side unrestricted ports and is your IP public (others can see you on internet).

    The internet which I'm using is split among multiple people. The connection is something like this: ISP -> server on a separate computer -> modem -> router -> router. I guess my connection is split so many times that it creates this NAT problem. I will try to enable bridging mode, see if it fixes something. Also this is the first game I encountered something like this, I just hope Ubisoft will do something about it.

    The thing is guys, you're all on your own as the Ubisoft support sucks balls. I made a ticket almost 2 days ago and still haven't had a reply yet about this issue. Today I went to the American support for a livechat as in my country [ the netherlands ] we don't have a livechat for some reason.. But yea in the end, the expert wouldn't help me just due to the fact that I am dutch. What you all can do guys is use a VPN such as hide.me [ the one I use ] connecting to the canadian server makes me get Moderate which I can actually find matches with
