Hello there,
I am not really huge technical type and totally not when it comes to networking. Yesterday I connected my brand new router (name of it in title of the thread), got it running, but for some reason I am not able to access any online games. I tried everything possible I found on other forums, submitted multiple tech support tickets, even disabled firewall on the router.
For some reason everytime I launch online game, despite my signal showing being strong enough, I just fail to connect to the game with no error message at the end. It just keeps loading in a loop but never finishing. At the same time while loading I try to launch my web browser, but no website is accessible due to loss of connection. When I close the game, browser seems to work again. I tried everything. Port forwarding, disabling my antivirus, turning off firewall, rebooting this, rebooting that, just none of it seems to be a solution.
After all this I came to conclusion that I may have bonked something on my router when setting it up maybe, or there is some crucial setting I don´t know about that may be blocking my games from working. I also had older asus single band router with only two antenas that got replaced by this newer one and I did not have these issues with it.
If anyone of you good people knows about solution, please let me know and thank you in advance.
