Traffic shaper and gaming
-
In your first floating rule, you have the Interface set to WAN and the Source set to a private IP space address. This won't work unless your private network is on the outside of your router… Unset WAN and leave it so that both WAN and LAN are unselected. Change the Protocol from any to TCP/UDP, and then change your queue so that Ackqueue is set to qACK. Make sure the ports are set to Any and not (other). Edit your other Ps4 floating rule just like this.
Lastly, your PS4 is trying to send an ICMP (ping) packet to port 3074 at those IP addresses, and is being blocked for some reason.

Is this happening on my end? Is there a way to allow my ps4 ip icmp ping requests?
-
It looks like it's the receiving end that is blocking the packets.
-
Also should I keep the rules for the ports on Wan interface or should I have both Wan and Lan unselected
-
That's weird
-
I would unselect them. That way the rule applies to either interface.
-
Should I keep port rules on wan or should I have both WaN and Lan unselected
-
Sorry for asking the same question twice. And okay thanks. I'll give these new settings a shot
-
So about the icmp ping requests. Is there anything I should do about this? Or does it even effect me at all in terms of latency and such for gaming. I still can't firgure out why on call of duty all the traffic goes to the game queue while in a lobby but when the match starts and up until the end of the match all traffic mainly goes through default. When I run packet capture the only ports being utilized is 3074 which I have a rule for that goes through game queue only since its mostly udp packets. Is there anything I could do about this?

I don't think there is anything you can do about it. If you haven't noticed any in-game issues or network gameplay features not working then I really wouldn't be concerned. It may be as simple as a heartbeat check for game clients that are no longer there.
