NAT type and the Playstation PS4 is having issues with NAT Type 2 even on DMZ

Hi,
Sometimes I like to play on my Playstation (PS4). I am getting an issue when playing Call of Duty: WWII where I cannot play with my friends and join their lobby. I have a TP Link Archer VR400.
I have checked the Nat Type and it is Strict and Type 2. So, in the hope to fix this, I did the following:-
1. Set the PS4 to connect to the internet over LAN
2. Set a static IP/Gateway/Subnet/DNS etc on the PS4
3. Added the PS4 to the DMZ in the Archer VR400 control panel using its assigned IP address
4. Tested the connection on the PS4
5. Still says I have NAT Type 2
6. I rebooted PS4 for a refreshed connection to the TP Link Archer VR400 but same result
7. I ran CoD: WWII on my PS4 and the game tells me I have a Strict NAT Type 2 and will have trouble connecting to other friends which is true because I cannot at all
How is this still happening if I have added the PS4 to the DMZ?
Please help.
John
