    Hey guys,

    I was wondering if anyone here could help me out. So I'm in university and I tried to set up my PS4 but the university wifi won't allow it. So I made a connection bridge between the college wifi and my laptop's local connection. I then ran this via an ethernet cable into my PS4. This worked and I have a faily good connection (download 10+mb and download 7+mb).

    Unfortunately, my NAT keeps failing and I was wondering if there is anything I can do?

    I'm able to watch netflix and use all the features on my PS4 but I can't play any games online. Which is the reason I bought my playstation and the reason I brought it with me

    Any help would be greatly appreciated! Help a sister play the Black Ops 3 beta

    Thanks

    I assume its the UPnP requirement that the college firewalls wont permit. Or this could be a "double NAT" setup due to the connection bridging (I'm not 100% here if windows will or wont perform NAT here).

    You're probably better off trying to "force" your way onto a direct wifi connection with with the PS4 via mac spoofing or w/e.
