I’m trying to get my PS4 to have a better NAT as it’s preventing me from participating in the Gundam Battle Operations online games.
Since the PFSense box I’m using has 4 ports and most of the examples I’ve found for doing this, use some sort of non-192.168.1.XXX net. So I set up one of the 4 ports as a DMZ interface using the 10.10.20.XXX range (it was what was used in one of the examples I found, I'm not using it for any particular reason).
There’s a bunch of stuff you have to do with regards to UPnP and such. I believe I’ve followed those parts correctly, but I’ve found that the IP for the DMZ Interface (10.10.20.1) interface (port) is not able to ping the fixed IP set up for the PS4 (10.10.20.42). The WAN interface can however ping the DMZ interface just fine. The PS4 is not able to access the internet and internet connection is listed as failed when I test the internet set up.
Clearly I’m missing something in terms of a rule or permission, but I’m not having a whole lot of luck trying to narrow down the problem searching on line. I think I just don't know the right question to ask. The obvious issue is that the interface IP is not talking to the device IP, but I don't know what that problem is called and the obvious search turns up pretty much everything.
