      If you disable pfBlocker does it still do it ?

      The disconnect are random so not easy to test.

      Did it happen NordVPN configuration ?

      No, has nothing to do with nord, that is used with a different Host.

      Also why all the pfBlocker Geo blocks on the WAN interface traffic is denied by default?

      It is the default behavior and works fine I think.

        I bet everything is going out your NordVPN connection.

        Does this print out your WAN IP address or a NordVPN address ?

          @NogBadTheBad No, had it only enabled in Firefox, but after disabling it is still get this messages here. It is my regular ISP IP-address. I also use that for gaming, no VPN there.

            No it's not you've enabled them here and there is no need to unless your blocking a country in the region, are you telling me you have blocked something in Antartica

            I only use it to block China, etc ... from hitting my sftp server.

                I almost block everything because it is for incoming connections only I thought, it is for my server.

                  You right, will change it later anyways.

                  And default deny rule is probably not related to pfblocker anyway, right?

                    Everything would be blocked by default on the WAN interface, you've just changed the default deny rule into one huge set of firewall rules using pfBlocker.

                        @NogBadTheBad For incoming connections to my server it is what I want. I mean everything works but kicked out of the game randomly.

                              @NogBadTheBad There is nothing of interest, some open ports (NAT) and the country blocks which again is intended.

                                Umm just noticed in the first screenshot it says default deny rule.

                                I don't think this is a pfBlocker issue.

                                Asymetric routing perhaps.

                                I want to come back to that asymetric routing.
                                My ISP is doing something, so that my Router can't see its internet IP-Address, but a different address. Maybe that is the problem for the firewall?

                                  So what are you using the pfBlocker GeoIP rules for on the WAN interface.

                                  To Block all countries bar one for your inbound rules ?

                                    And it is default on the wan interface and I am blocking almost everyone but some countries for incoming connections to my server, but is this really related to my Overwatch problem?

                                      Your using pfBlocker wrong then.

                                      You need to create an alias in pfBlocker and use it in a firewall rule to pass, doing it the way you are every packet will be evaluated top to bottom till there is a match.

                                        I think you need to talk with your ISP.

                                          @NogBadTheBad One County or one list only would be easy because I could just Invert Source and everything would be fine. Your screen looks much more complicate to me.
                                          So what I will do now is disable all geoblocking and all of pfblocker and will look if the problem still occurs.
                                          Thank you for now!

                                            It is a big one, Germanys second or third biggest cable-provider, so no chance, they do what they do. ☺
