theargonaut33 Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Hi all. So I just picked up the XR500 a few days ago and so far pretty happy. One thing I can't figure out is why the geofiltering affects my LAN speeds. I have 2 Xbox One consoles. I put both of them into the geofiltering. I went to transfer a game over the LAN from one console to another and noticed I couldn't really get past around 35Mb/s between them. I knew before with my old router I got around 90Mb/s between the two. I turned off the geofiltering and it instantly went back to "normal" getting around 100Mb/s for the transfer. Needless to say, I did not turn geofiltering back on. Why did turning geofiltering on affect this transfer between my two Xbox's and how do I fix it? Should it really affect internal transfers between two devices that are in geofiltering on my LAN? Help appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 14, 2018 Administrators Share Posted March 14, 2018 Hey, welcome to the forum! The only reason I can tell that would cause that to happen is if the ports used for transferring games over LAN are covered in the console services for the Geo-Filter but even then I would have thought it would just be blocked instead. Do you see anything blocked appearing on the Geo-Filter when transferring? If yes then please provide me with the ID's so I can whitelist them, that would fix the issue. If not then the solution is to just disable the Geo-Filter when doing a transfer and enabling when actually playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will try it again and see if anything pops up in the router during transfer and let you know. I didn't think to look while I was actually doing it. Maybe you can help me out with something else as well. I tried to contact a few people and they all told me to contact you about registration issue but I can't because it says you can't accept PMs. Would you be able to start a convo with me privately? I have a registration issue I need help with. This is an account I used because I never got registration email for my primary email which I would rather use. If you can PM me and help me with it, I would really appreciate it. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
