Suddenly unable to play with friend I used to be able to play with a week ago | Forums

[DoctorVector]

Hi,

I've run into a problem and I'm hoping someone can help me. I have a friend, let's call him 'B', who I've been able to play with just fine for the past three weeks. He used to have to connect to my game to play as for some reason I couldn't connect to his, I'd always get the Tarija-00013 error.

We last played together last Monday. We tried again this weekend but for some reason now we both get Tarija-00013 errors both ways. We also tried to connect to a third friend, let's call him 'C'. I can connect to 'C' just fine. 'B' can connect to 'C'. But when I am connected to 'C', 'B' can't join, and when 'B' and 'C' are together, I cannot join. We'd always get the Tarija-00013 or 00014 errors.

I have Nat Status Moderate.
'B' has Nat status strict.
'C' has Nat status Open.

Neither I nor 'B' has changed anything on our computers since we last played.

I and 'B' cannot access our router or modem for port forwarding and such as we live in shared student accommodations where the internet is operated by management. We have tried turning off our firewalls and that didn't work.

My question is, what has changed in the past week considering we have been able to play before? Has there been an update patch or something? Can I roll it back?

NAT Type: Open


When you have an Open NAT type, you’re able to chat with other people, join and host multiplayer games, and interact and play with players who have any other type of NAT type on their network.


NAT Type: Moderate


If you have a Moderate NAT type, you’ll be able to chat and play online with some people, but you might not be able to with everyone. You also won’t be chosen as the host of a match.


NAT Type: Strict


If you have a Strict NAT type, you’re restricted to chatting and playing multiplayer games exclusively with people who have an OPEN NAT type. You also can’t be chosen as the host of a match.

Ghost Recon: Wildlands NAT Type Open
If you are having a difficult time trying to play Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands online, forwarding ports in your router may solve your problems. Forwarding ports in your router makes a direct connection between you and the other players on your squad. If you want to be squad leader during online co-op you will need to forward ports. Another benefit to forwarding ports is being allowed to host the game which means less lag time for you.




In Ghost Recon: Wildlands, up to 4 players are able to join a squad and play online co-op. In order to play Wildlands online with your friends, at least one of your squad members will need to forward ports so that everyone else will be able to connect to them.


Forwarding ports is necessary to get a NAT Type Open (Xbox One and PC) or NAT Type 2 (PS4) connection. This allows you to connect to most players. You will also need to forward ports if you want to be lobby host.
If you are seeing NAT Type Strict (Xbox One and PC) or NAT Type 3 (PS4) in the game lobby then you will not be able to connect to some players. This may make joining online squads difficult for you and cause you to waste time waiting for compatible players to team up with.
Forward ports in your router and/or firewall to get a better connection and get NAT Type Open (Xbox One and PC) or NAT Type 2 (PS4).
Forwarding Ports for Ghost Recon: Wildlands
The easiest solution is to use our our Network Utilities software that will automatically forward your ports. Otherwise, you can follow the guides for your specific router below.


Make sure that you set up a static IP in your console or PC before forwarding ports in your router. You can visit these guides for help setting up a static IP.
Next, forward ports in your router and/or firewall for PS4, Xbox One or PC, whichever platform you are using. You will just need to forward all of the ports listed for your gaming platform.
After forwarding ports in your router you can check your NAT Type in the game lobby. If you are gaming on PC and do not see NAT Type in the game lobby, you can use a port checking tool to see if your ports have been forwarded. Our Network Utilities software includes a free Port Checker tool that you can use to check your ports.

if your router supports automatic port forwarding, try that. it worked for me quite well

[Supermax2004]

In Wildlands it worked perfectly. In Breakpoint (open beta) my nat status is open once again but no one can join my game Its really great....
