Takes minutes to set up, highly recommend it. I use it on my PS4 all the time.
Remote play in the house is excellent with Chiaki. I know it works across the web as well, but I can’t figure it out. It just doesn’t work and I have no idea if it’s the way I set up chiaki, the way I set up port forwarding, the way my router handles port forwarding, or simply the internet connection from which I’m attempting to connect. I wonder if the Portal has these issues, because not having to deal with any of that is actually a pretty solid selling point.
My guess would be that if you’re having trouble with Chiaki, you will probably have trouble PS portal as well, as usually those issues are at the modem level and have to do with your settings.
You have to do additional setup to do Chiaki from outside of your network. With the PS Remote App, they handle everything.
I don't think either are acceptable local, let alone outside the network, for anything that demands any kind of reaction time, but it's OK enough for turn based or slower games.
Word my bad!
You might be on a CG-NAT network which makes port forwarding impossible. Some ISPs will disable it if you ask (or give you an ipv6 IP which isn't affected by the issue).
How can I go about learning what any of this means and how to look for it?
If you go to https://ipinfo.io at home (over wifi or ethernet) and it says your ip is in the
100.64.0.0/10range, then you are on a CG-NAT network.This wikipedia article may be helpful. The short answer is that we are running out of public IPv4 addresses so CG-NAT is used so a bunch of users can essentially share 1 (or a few) public IPs. From the router's perspective, you have a public IP that is actually a private IP in the 100.64.0.0/10 range.
However, not having a real public IP means you have no way for remote devices to directly access your router, so port forwarding won't work.
