Greetings!
Once again like with Rainbow Six Siege beta I cant connect to a friend and he cant connect to my lobby because the nat is strict. I am using IPv6 only and I have a Fritzbox 7390. I activated UPnP but it doesnt change the strict status.
Which ports do I have to open now? Probably wont work anyway....thx once again!
Cant buy the game nor test the beta if the coop doesnt work!!
Can someone help me?
Thx and god bless you

Edit: I also tried the DMZ method deactivating the firewall for the pc....DOESNT WORK! What the hell....

Well it is working now. However....well here is the full story and maybe someone from Ubisoft can read this and work on a solution in the future!
My provider is giving me a IPv6 address only with DS lite. The nat was strict and there was no way to open it. I activated UPnp on my Fritzbox 7390 and also tried DMZ (deactivated the router firewall for my pc completely!). I also forwarded all TCP and UDP ports I could find in the Ubisoft forums and support pages. The nat was still strict. No way to open it.
Now what did that mean? Well if a friend with IPv4 hosted I could join. He also could join my host. But a friend with the same IPv6 only connection couldnt join nor host with the nat set to strict as well. However which was very interesting....if I joined the IPv4 friend then my IPv6 friend couldnt join as well. If he joined first then I couldnt join. So only 1 IPv6 guy could join the IPv4 hostQuestionable....
Anyway the solution now was to order the DS lite dual stack giving me an IPv6 AND an IPv4 address from my provider. The nat is now open and I can join and host without a problem. Even the IPv6 friend with strict nat can join easily.
So you probably gotta get that IPv4 dual stack stuff if your provider can only provide you an IPv6 address atm.! I am hoping in the future there is an IPv6 solution for everyone as IPv6 is the future! Hopefully Ubisoft can work on that.
Cause I dont have a problem with other games unless they are pretty old.
