Then today removing the device, flushing the cloud and addingh it back was working a charm. 100% dedicated servers all night. aka_boogo, Alex49H and Netduma Fraser 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aka_boogo Posted October 31, 2018 Author Share Posted October 31, 2018 No worries glad to hear, but I can’t take any credit as this was posted originally by the admin team...I just found myself continually doing it before sessions which now has died down a far bit... I have been setting all dedicated servers I find (all in Sydney or very close to it) to allow all very consistent 20-25ms pings some are a little more all over the place than others but in reality no that bad... i note that the same servers do MP games as well BO games as I thought this maybe different for the different game types... One other thing to note is I have set my geo filter to the middle of Australia and pull out the ring to cover all of it, and continue to connect to Sydney servers both ones that I have already come across and new ones (I’m up to 13 servers based in Sydney now on my allow list) however, I believe the there another server based in south Australia but I’m yet to connect anything there so I can’t report what they are like for me (guessing it would be a little worse than the Sydney as it’s a bit further away) I'm really looking forward to the next milestone being the new ping assist... keep you posted with anything else I find that’s relative to Australia and east coast more accurately...

wils1337 Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 I've connected to the South Australia dedi once, and the ping was over 120 ms, leading me to believe its actually a miss-located icon rather than a server based in SA But I haven't been able to connect again to grab its ID or IP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aka_boogo Posted October 31, 2018 Author Share Posted October 31, 2018 Ok yeah didn’t take that into consideration I don’t think Australia has ever had 2 dedicated servers at least to my knowledge... Could I ask, how long does it take to get into a game? MP / BO? Sometimes it can take some time especially BO. I don’t know if this is true but sometimes I grab the pointer for the geo filter and move it slightly while the game is searching and then I find a game... I know we’re not meant to but I’m starting to get the impression that this helps... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But normal MP games, following the delete flush add method, I'd day 15-30 seconds max, I am PC tho so might not be comparable *Edit* Spoke too soon, cant get a game tonight with GEO filter on.

Munky Force Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Fellow Aussie PS4 player here too. I find I have to delete device and flush, as some have reported, a couple times before it will connect to the Sydney servers. There are a few times it will say I'm connected to a peer in the UK or the ocean but the ping is solid and around the same as the Sydney server so assume it's actually a dedi. If I have the filter on it will never connect to the dedi even though I have it covering all of Australia so I just leave it on spectate and honestly games have been mostly fine for me. P2P (listen server) games aren't actually too bad, obviously not as crisp as the dedi but i can never finish a game without at least 1 host migration and then blue screen or game freeze. I had a game of WW2 the other day with filter and spectate on and it worked flawlessly so I assume it's BO4 being new and no doubt the Netduma team will sort it out as they always do. I should probably report the IDs next time I'm on instead of waiting for everyone else to do it haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 1, 2018 Administrators Share Posted November 1, 2018 I have mentioned to the developers the trouble with getting games compared to say the old firmware Uzumaki619 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dav581005 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 I have found with the original firmware that if I put the ping assist down to zero and the circle at about 1200km essentially mimicking the geofilter on the DumaOS then I can't find a game at all but if I move the ping assist up to 30ms I find a game straight away but the server is inside the circle but couldn't connect with ping assist off. Geofilter is really weird with this game joaso 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfeman Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 I have the same issue in eastern US time zone. I have my filter set on a 1000 mile radius filter mode strict mode auto ping Only peer connections i'm getting 1200+ pings when I finally find a match after about 5 mins, either that or it kicks me back to main menu. I have followed all optimal settings guides and previous advice from my inquiries. I have not tried the flushing thing yet but I would think the filter should work as intended and us not have to constantly play with it just to get a decent connection.

dav581005 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Isn't there any chance that the ping assist could be released as a r-app or whatever it's called rather than having to wait for the final release of the new firmware please🙏🙏🙏🙏 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uzumaki619 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 At this point I really dont feel like playing black ops 4 until ping assist release cause the servers I kept connecting to its ridiculous. The hit market is ridiculous aswell. It played better on the beta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dav581005 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Yeah I know what you mean I think when I was on DumaOS and I got a dedicated server the connection seemed a lot better than when I get dedicated servers on original firmware it's just the hassle of trying to get dedis on DumaOS was not good but when we get ping assist that hassle will go away I have tried to get that same quality of connection with original r1 firmware but can't seem to do it.maybe the new qos works different to the original and that's the difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aka_boogo Posted November 6, 2018 Author Share Posted November 6, 2018 If the remove device and then flush cloud doesn’t work try putting the device into spectate mode... it appears to me that you’ll connect to peers that are far away outside the geo-filter but if you have ping assist on you’ll see the ping closer to what you’re usally accustomed to seeing when it works great. So I’m guessing that there’s some issue with the servers, whatever that looks like, Treyarch or duma’s cloud, something needs to be updated...

KURT NEWSOME Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Iv seen alot of people posting about downgrading the dumaos . But I just got a Netgear Nighthawk gaming router with dumas on it can it be downgraded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DumaOS has been excellent in all the games I play other than black ops 4 for some weird reason it doesn't play well with their servers. Unfortunately my main game at my the moment is black ops 4 so I have gone back to original firmware until ping assist is released then I will be straight back on DumaOS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dav581005 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Sorry just re read your post and realised I didn't really answer yourquestion so - No I wouldn't have thought you would be able to downgrade especially if it shipped with DumaOS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uzumaki619 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 I have xr500 sadly I cant downgrade. One thing I notice the closest server next to me have an average 14 ms when I ping it. In game its showing 80 ms like wtf. On the beta that same server was showing 20 ms to 33ms in game . Any idea why? Something off. And that sever played better on the beta too. The hit detection is ridicculously unreal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dav581005 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Not 100% but I think that may well be the lag comp so maybe furthest person from server has ping around 80ms could also be an accumulated ping from you to server to other players then back again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Netduma Staff Netduma Jack Posted November 6, 2018 Netduma Staff Share Posted November 6, 2018 Ping Assist will be out fairly soon - we're working hard on figuring out what's happening. There's been a lot of BO4 issues reported elsewhere (by non-Netduma users) recently so I'm thinking something has been changed by Treyarch again. Our cloud update and Ping Assist will help soon Uzumaki619 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
