How to open ports for GTA5?

darnoK

Hi Everyone,
I have problem with GTA5 game. I have installed the game on my PC and tried launch it. I see the communicate, that I cannot connect with Rockstar Games services. When I connect PC strictly to my ISP modem, everything works fine. Probably the problem is in my SOPHOS XG 115W settings. The problem exists also when I set all rules as "none" (IPS, web protection, application control) in firewall settings.

I found in support.rockstargames.com article where is:

GTA Online requires the following ports remain open:

TCP ports 80, 443
UDP ports: 6672, 61455, 61457, 61456 and 61458

Someone had the same problem? Could You tell me, what should I do step by step to open ports for Rockstar Games?

    Hi Iferrara, thank You for Your answer.

    Below I had pasted screens from firewall settings. 

    Anywhere connection rules are set as "any".

    In advanced settings of each connection I have switched off IPS, web filtering and aplication control.

    The problem still exists :/

    I will be grateful for Your help...

    PS My firmware is SFOS 16.01.2.

    Konrad,

    thanks for sharing the screenshots. Can you check what the Firewall Logs are saying about Blocked Traffic for the PC ip where the game is running?

    Thanks

    Hi Konrad,

    Check #1 in my guide here. Do you see any drops and Which FW-rule does the traffic flows through?

    Thanks

    Hi, thank You for Your posts.

    IPS was blocking "RSA Authentication Agent for Web Buffer Overflow". I have added the rule for this in IPS Policies and its working.

    Now I try to switch-on IPS, web filtering and application control.

    IPS - on - GTA5 is working
    Application Control - on - GTA5 is working
    Web Filtering - on - GTA5 not working (can't connect with Rockstar Games servers).

    When Web Filtering is "NONE" - GTA5 works, when I switch for example "ALLOW ALL", it's not working.

    Do You have any ideas?

    Hi Konrad,

    When Web Filtering is configured as NONE, that means you are bypassing the proxy completely. If Allow all is configured the traffic will pass through Sophos Web proxy but will be allowed as per the definition. Sometimes, servers do not respond to requests sent by the proxy, the server doesn't play well with proxies and that the proxy times out. You must see a status code 504 in such instance.

    I would suggest you to configure a FW-rule on TOP with specific Source IP defined and filters as NONE.

    Thanks

    Thank You everyone, problem is solved.

    I created a separate firewall rule for that user. Everything works! ;-)

    Marek Dalke from FEN has helped me to solve problem.

    Hey,

     

    Instead of a separate rule for the user, I created a sort of exception for the webfilter using the following rule:

     

    Source zone: LAN
    Source Network: LAN

    Destination Zone: WAN
    Destination Networks:

    A FQDN Host group, named "GTA V",
    prod.ros.rockstargames.com

    prod.telemetry.ros.rockstargames.com

    a.rsg.sc

     

    An IP list:
    192.81.241.100,52.33.202.198

     

    And this worked for me.
    Then I turned off the Web Policy and put this rule right above the rule that does my web filtering.

    This basically bypasses the Web Policy for the given FQDN's and IP's, and allowed me to play GTA while still having my webfilter active while browsing the web.
