Fortnite traffic incorrectly id'd as bittorrent

Product Discussion Peplink Balance

Our community has a Peplink Balance One.

Some people want to turn on the Content Blocking for BitTorrent traffic, but it seems that the router is identifying all traffic associated with the game Fortnite as Bittorrent and blocking that as well.

Fortnite traffic is easy to identify, it’s always destined for an AWS IP address on udp ports 9000-9015.

Is there a way we can allow Fortnite traffic and block all other “BitTorrent” traffic?

Would you please open a support ticket here for support team to check on this ? Sound like a bug but Support team may need to check from your device first.

Just to update :

This have been identified as false positive blocking for Fortnite traffics as BitTorrent. This will be fix for next firmware release.
