I bought this router new 2 days ago, I upgraded from older to link wifi 6 router, which worked fine.

The BE550 will not allow "The Outlast Trials" video game launched thru Steam to connect to the Red Barrels gaming servers.

 

Other Games launched thru Steam show live on Universal plug and play in the BE550 software.

 

Manual port forwarding does nothing and the issue persists.

 

Flush dns no difference

Ip config no difference

Ip renew no difference

Netsh winsock no difference

 

This is not a Windows or PC issue it is the router. I have a Lenovo Legion i7 pro gen 10 with MediaTek wifi 7.

Running wifi ac on the laptop or the router makes no difference.

 

Allowing "the outlast trials" thru Microsoft defender makes no difference.

 

Making sure Universal plug and play is set to always in Windows makes no difference.

 

Switching to wifi 2.4ghz makes no difference

Switching to 5ghz makes no difference

Switching to wifi 7 be makes no difference

Switching off MLO makes no difference

Using Google Gemini for 2 days straight to help me with this makes no difference. The be550 ignores my manual port forwarding and universal plug and play for "The Outlast Trials."

 

Download speed 1000

Upload speed 400

It's not an internet speed issue it is a be550 firewall issue. 

 

Switching back to the old router Archer Ax-72 fixes the issue because it automatically detects Steam and The Outlast Trials and activates Universal plug and play.

 

Please help me
