Guys can anyone help me to forward ports for apex legends on jio fiber for better gaming . Note my jio fiber supports both ip4 and ip6 . any help will be highly appreciated.

These ports are needed to be forwarded
  • TCP: 1024-1124, 3216, 9960-9969, 18000, 18060, 18120, 27900, 28910, 29900
  • UDP: 1024-1124, 18000, 29900, 37000-40000
Also does port forwarding helps in getting better performance in the game ?
 
I don't think Jio allows port forwarding. You are probably behind a CGNAT, i.e you don't have an exclusive IP address, you share one with a bunch of people. If you really want to forward ports, you could setup an nginx reverse proxy on a vps. Or buy/setup a VPN that allows port forwarding.

Although it sounds like you don't need it. Port forwarding just exposes parts of your internal home network to the open internet. It won't help latency in games at all. All it will help you do is host gaming servers, do peer-to-peer streaming, host websites etc.

Port forwarding as @variablevector is not for what you think it is. I've only tried to do it like twice 7 years back when custom clients for cod modern warfare 2 were a thing and I tried to host a server lol. From my experience I've had the lowest latency with Act fibernet and was stable constantly. Airtel fiber and jio fiber which my friends used were sometimes good sometimes bad when it comes to ping.

Your location matters as well, southern states due to how the internet itself is routed always had lower ping when connected to servers in asia or anywhere outside the country really.
 
As far as I know, you don't need to expose ports in order to reduce ping. Jio routing sucks, my main reason for moving to Airtel (high ping every 1-2 games).
You can also try cloudflare tunnel (Cloudflare WARP for teams) it helps a lot.

Also, you can't forward ports on jiofiber at all anyway.
You can, however, find out IP addresses of Apex's Singapore servers (I am assuming that's what you use for Apex Matchmaking) and ask the Jiofiber team to sort their routing out to their IP and reduce latency. Tell them you get half latency using other internet providers.

I have airtel fiber also . But these days airtel fiber sucks . Airtel fiber is giving micro stutters while jio fiber has improved a lot because they have started a new sea link cable route to Singapore because Chennai gateway is super laggy and always a high traffic route .

From what I understand opening port won’t reduce ping /lag ?
 
If you are running into lag or ping issues OP, its not just you. Apex is absolutely dogshit when it comes to that.

Your best bet is to switch servers at the main menu screen. Some days randomly I will get 20-30% packet loss and 300 ping on Singapore servers while Taiwan is fine. Other days it will do that on Frankfurt while Singapore is fine. The netcode on that game is trash.

If you are in India, you have about 6 servers you should be pinging ~100ish to. Just swap between them when one of them is performing poorly.

I used to think the same when I was using Jio fiber. Hours and hours of troubleshooting, searching online for similar threads, I concluded that the routing of Jio to chennai from western part of India which then routes to Singapore is pretty problematic. If I used Cloudflare WARP for teams, it would tunnel my traffic through their servers and ping would stay constant.

After switching to Airtel for 1.5 years now, I have encountered ping issues exactly twice (there was some global outage on Apex servers). I play almost every weekend for 2-4 hours.

But cloudflare doesn’t have severs in India, when I used wrap it chooses servers at france
