      I am trying to play online with my Nintendo Switch. It fails, saying NAT traversal process has failed. Is there anything I need to do with my Firewall Rules/NAT configuration on my pfsense device?

        Hi,

        I think these will solve your problem ๐Ÿ˜‰

        +++edit:

        static port or CONE NAT, let's call it what we will ๐Ÿ˜‰

        Cats bury it so they can't see it!
        (You know what I mean if you have a cat)

          @daddygo Thank you.
          I am following your instructions on the first link. How do I get here?

          I'm not sure if I'm using a newer version, or just can't find it...

            I'll show you step by step, although my son is over 18 now and doesn't play on PS4 (it means nothing, but he stopped), but the VIOP static port is the same ๐Ÿ˜‰
            (so I don't have a PS4 NAT configuration anymore on our home pfSense, but no difference on this, for my VOIP HT802 ATA device on .85.180) CONE NAT and / or static port

            okhay let's see:

            BTW:

            Be careful with UPnP, I recommend to install it only on a separate interface!!!

              I've also put in some DNS servers.
              I hope this helps.

                @droidus Are you running an SG-3100 on 21.05.x? There is a known bug effecting UPNP on this model and code base. Last I checked they don't have an ETA for a fix.
