Set up my router on PPPoE and bypassed having the bt router plugged in completely and it was automatically set to dial on demand, so i tried switching it to always on, but if i do this about an hour later the internet cuts off on the router for about a minute and then when it comes back on we have internet but now at 1/10th of the speed, 930mbps down to 93mbps, always guaranteed 1/10 exactly, have no idea why but it has done it 3 times now without fail by changing from dial on demand to always on.

Hey Crem! To answer your question: yes, you definitely get connected to Scandinavian servers (mostly Stockholm) pretty regularly if you're playing from up here. I play on the Stockholm servers daily with a really solid, low ping. Of course, depending on the time of day and the matchmaking pool, the game will occasionally toss you over to Frankfurt or London if lobby queues are acting up, but the Nordic connection is active and consistent enough that you don’t need to worry about server availability. If you're on the fence because of ping, I’d say it's safe to buy!

Hi fellow geo-filterers, Do anyone know if there is any Scandinavian servers for modern warfare 4? (Stockholm/Helsinki) And will you actually get at connected to them at least semi consistently in multiplayer/warfare? Thinking about buying but want to know about the server availability beforehand. Thanks, Crem

Is there a problem if I stay on the old version? Are there any new features or a difference in gaming performance?

That is what i thought, the bt smart hub 3 was awful, kept cutting everyone off the wifi constantly so i just did away with it, these new build houses came pre-installed with bt and hyperoptic, first year we had to choose either as no holes were allowed to be drilled, subsidence and all, after that we can choose. But yes all the problems with the 2 routers being mortal enemies are over :).

Good to hear, thanks for the update! You can ignore the built in speedtest, it's using servers that may not be the closest to you so if you're getting expected speeds from a normal speedtest then the router isn't limiting you at all.

No there is only one DumaOS 4 update for the R2 currently, the next one will be the final update for it

I think you can update, it's quite a stable update which is why we made it a public one

It's not mislabelled as BO7 we just haven't tested the new game yet, we're aware of it not pinging and we will be updating the cloud. It won't affect your ability to use the Geo-Filter though.

is there even a new firmware update other than the 4.0.258?

ماذا حدث؟ هل تم حل المشكلة؟ هل تنصحني بتثبيت التحديث؟ ما زلت مترددًا، فأنا ألعب *كول أوف ديوتي* وألعابًا تنافسية أخرى، وأستخدم اتصالًا سلكيًا (كابل إيثرنت) وشبكة واي فاي بتردد 5 جيجاهرتز. ما زلت مترددًا بشأن التحديث.

Hi Netduma Team, I am having a major issue with the ping heatmap on my Netduma R3. the router hasn't updated the server list for the new MW4. instead, the game appears mislabeled in the dropdown menus as "call of duty: Black ops 7. Because of this database error, all game servers on the list are completely broken, showing as "N/A -1000ms". I have already tried clicking on "Resync Cloud" and doing a full factory/hard reboot of the router, but nothing changes—the servers remain unreachable on the Heatmap.

I decided in the end to do away with the bt hub all together and put the netgear router in PPPoE mode but now i have hit a new problem, i have shut down QOS because i know there was problems with that in the past limiting internet speed and if i test the speed via the xr500 i can only get a maximum of 500 mbps but if i do a speedtest online it reads as 930 mbps, any ideas ?, thankyou for your help by the way fraser i would of answered sooner but have been doing alot moving into our new home. Doing it this way as well has cured the problem of not being able to get into the router, win win.

I think that will be the maximum you can achieve for the moment then. You could try swapping ethernet cables as you mentioned and putting the R3 in the gateway DMZ instead of using bridge mode but otherwise that's the maximum for now.

The XR doesn't have Ping Optimiser specifically - it has auto setup which is similar but built differently and speed test the XR does have the NTGR speed test but that's not the one the app would use. Ping Heatmap will be updated via the cloud.

If you're playing on console you don't as it adds as a console and so will apply to any game you play. On PC if its not covered by the general options then changing the device type to a console on the Device Manager so you can add it as a console to the Geo-Filter would be needed.

The best connection quality what you suggested would be correct but if you want your maximum speeds then the Eero in front would be needed, it's whatever your preference is

Business to Business

How do you add a game that is NOT on your choose game list⁉️

That's with CC on 100% same speeds pretty much if it's 95 or 100

Still optimiser don't work, speed test or ping heatmap. Looks like now it's discontinued features have stopped working

So do you recommend to put the eero in front of the r3 instead?

What is B2B?

You don't have to do that, the only reason to do that is if you don't want it auto updating the router. You can go to their latest firmware version as it will have security fixes and it will have that version of DumaOS built in.

Make sure you're trying via ethernet and using a web browser in Incognito mode, connecting via HTTP not HTTPS (some browsers force HTTPS) and if that doesn't work try via the mobile app instead. Do a reboot before each try.
