Port Forwarding

Your internet provider assigns one IP address to your internet connection, and every computer connected to the internet needs one such IP address. “Ports” are used to help computers communicate with each other. In our case, it is Apex Legends’ servers and your computer that need to connect with each other. Some computers block certain ports, and by unlocking the ones specific to EA/Apex, you can resolve connectivity issues. Port forwarding in Apex Legends is safe as long as you only use official ports.

Here are the port numbers that you need to forward if you are facing the Apex Legends servers not found error. You can refer to the official EA help page linked here to check the updated list of ports for each platform at any time.

TCP

80, 443, 9960-9969, 1024-1124, 3216, 18000, 18120, 18060, 27900, 28910, 29900

UDP

1024-1124, 18000, 29900, 37000-40000

Here are the steps to port forward in Apex Legends:

Navigate to Control Panel, System and Security, and Windows Firewall.
Select Advanced settings and highlight Inbound Rules in the left pane.

Right-click Inbound Rules and select New Rule.
Add the port you need to open and click Next.

Add the protocol (TCP or UDP) and the port number into the next window and click Next.
Select Allow the connection in the next window and hit Next.
