Random Red NAT issues since recent Windows 10 Update | Forums

[Rikuto01]

Since about three days ago seemingly coinciding with a mandatory windows 10 update I am getting random red NAT status upon starting For Honor. I say random because it appears it will be red with about a 4/5 chance. And sometimes, green. Seems like FH got a new hidden RNG minigame attached on startup, and its not particularly welcomed.


Haven't seen a lot of people complain about this yet so I don't know how widespread it is, but at least one other user in my stream chat seems to have this problem as well. Bare in mind, I have clocked nearly 900 hours into the PC version and this ONLY started happening three days ago. No other changes have been made to my setup, and no other game or device is detecting strict NAT. Windows Defender has also been disabled and permissions given regardless, with no impact to For Honor.

Hi Rikuto01.tv,

If you haven't already, please try making sure that the Ports the game requires have been forwarded on your Router. You can do this through the steps in the guide here.

It would be strange if this were to occur due to a Windows Update, but it's certainly worth making sure you've performed this step.

Hey Shadow_HunterSL, and welcome to the forums!
Can you go through the steps in this guide especially the part about port forwarding.
This should get you back up and running.
