This varies on a user to user basis. For example, a user with their hardware already set up using methods one or two, and UPnP enabled in their router may be able to simply download the program and get going in under 5 minutes, whereas a user with a router that requires manual port forwarding, and who made need to source a USB Ethernet adapter for Kai may take a few hours to get set up, when troubleshooting time is factored in.
Yes, only chat and arena data passes through the orbital servers. Game traffic is completely peer-to-peer. On Windows, this is usually due to WinPcap not being installed. On any OS, this can also be due to you not being connected to the internet. Check that the link light on your Xbox's ethernet port has come on. If it has not, try using a different ethernet cable and ensure that there are no issues with the ethernet port on both the Xbox and the PC. Unless you are playing homebrew games, you may safely ignore this error.
Otherwise, go through the homebrew guide again and ensure you have followed all the steps. This indicates that Kai cannot make a P2P connection to the user, and that either your port or the user's is closed.
We do this based on the last 4 digits of your console's unique MAC address. If your PS4 is connected directly to your computer with an Ethernet cable like the examples above automatic IP address assignment should work for you just fine as long as XLink Kai is started and logged in before the PS4 is powered on.
If your PS4 is connected to your regular home network or is on your WiFi it is highly recommended you set a Static IP as detailed below. Automatic IP assignment is literally racing against your router to offer an IP address first and will often lose. Setting the IP manually ensures the smoothest experience possible. If you are having trouble finding other players to game with please join our Discord chat and use the various game-specific channels.
There are also several fan-run discords that host regular game nights. This varies on a user to user basis. For example, a user with their hardware already set up using methods one or two, and UPnP enabled in their router may be able to simply download the program and get going in under minutes, whereas a user with a router that requires manual port forwarding, and who made need to source a USB Ethernet adapter for Kai may take an hour or so to get set up, when troubleshooting time is factored in.
Yes, only chat and arena data passes through the orbital servers. If you have two or more routers on your network you are double NATted , you should set one of them to bridge mode so only one router is performing NAT.
If you only have one router, double check that port forwarding has been done correctly: the rule needs to be applied to the IP address of your computer running Kai, UDP selected as the protocol, and the port then manually set in Kai's configuration menu.
Make sure you have the same game updates as the other players and get any other user in your arena to search for matches while you have the metrics tab open, then check if broadcast traffic inbound flashes a 1 or some other value. If it remains 0, double check there are no firewalls on your network that XLink Kai has not been set as an exception in. If you can detect other users' consoles, read on. Make sure you have the same game updates as the other players. Search for games, then ask users in the arena to check if they see your console under your profile.
An alternative method of checking this is looking at outbound broadcast traffic under metrics while searching. Upon doing this, your console should be visible to all other users. These are highly secured password managers with excellent features, including generating secure passwords. WizCase is an independent review site.
