Hello Plutonium Community,
I'm experiencing an unusual connection issue with my Black Ops 2 server. While most users are able to connect without problems, players from the UAE consistently face connection difficulties they stuck in (waiting for other players) . I wanted to rule out any issues on my end, so I provided these affected users with the IW4MAdmin website link (it shares the same IP as my server but uses different ports). They were unable to access this website without a VPN, further suggesting a possible regional restriction.
I've reached out to my VPS provider, Lightnode, regarding potential geo-restrictions, but they've confirmed that they don't enforce any country-based limitations. For context, my server is located in Bahrain.
If anyone has faced similar issues or has any insights on how to resolve this, your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

S2RT please don't delete and re-create topics. It won't get you any better answers. Have you confirmed that the players can't join after trying a second time. Does the UAE censor it's citizens internet access?
-
Do they share some similarities? Like the same ISP, issues only on certain maps or bad PCs that take forever to load the game?
-
Does anyone of your friends have a phone with a different provider which they could use to see if their ISP is indeed the problem?
-
Hmm, not sure what could be done about it for all users.
For your friends you could try a VPN like zerotier, maybe its enough to see if the ISP is blocking it or not. -
Issue Resolved: After hearing back from their ISP that the issue wasn't on their end, I decided to change my VPS IP as a last resort (glad my VPS providers has this option), Note: the changed IP is in the same range as the old one. Fortunately, this resolved the problem, although I'm still unclear on the root cause.
