And we can close this thread, I switched over to the Google wi-fi router exclusively and no issues since.

Actually, if you read the response from September 3rd... "Actually I have every one of those settings less host filtering as its disabled and I wasn't gaming during troubleshooting." The most recent responses around September 3rd were relatively simple sentences, I'm not sure they needed tidying.

Actually I have every one of those settings less host filtering as its disabled and I wasn't gaming during trouble shooting. I will try Chrome though thanks. That said plugged in a Google router and voila, with the Netduma disconnected it makes a nice night light. Thanks for the reply. Generally I find the product flaky at best but I will try the phone browser for the Internet diag. Thanks for the reply!

I read that before I purchased the Netduma... I read through most of the setup material before I even bought one so I'd have a bit of comfort when it arrived. But thanks for the reply, appreciate it.

and now the last check, just set to non-gaming, disabled bleeding edge... re-ran speed tests, can't get above 4mbs. I guess this was a bad weekend to try this thing again. I'm thinking I'm going back to the google router and returning this. Too much work. Thanks all for replies.

didn't know about the quote thing. anyway, long story short, I've even taken it out of dmzplus mode... so everything is still in pass through but no dmz plus. can get to the Internet fine, but the speeds are still crap at factory settings compared to a laptop plugged into the hub.

using a mac, not a pc, so nothing like that is running. yeah, figured out the netdumar1 after the router prompted when doing the reset.

and the only other change is to add the WAN IP settings allocated by DMZ plus mode to the netduma for WAN IP (properly configuring a bridge) and here's that screen shot.

And if you're wondering what the speeds are... that's post factory reset, hard wired to netduma versus hard wired into the att router. granted the firewall is now off on the att u-verse router but that disparity is obviously not acceptable.

Checked the ATT router and the config is the same, (its a PACE 5031NV) and the Netduma is in the DMZplus mode with everything enabled less NetBios and all firewall on the PACE is disabled e.g. all attack detection. This is the closest ATT has to bridge mode on their PACE and that which is recommended for a bridge setting. And since I have some networking background... and the router has been flaky since I received it, my Google router works fabulously with the same settings, I'm thinking #notusererror

I normally would do a reset from within the settings but the router was not responding. So I didn't have any other choice. However after doing so, I attempted to connected via wireless to the Netduma, however the default (per the quick start guide which states use serial numbers didn't work). So reconnected via hard wire, and got in. So, just to be clean, I did another factory reset from the gui. And I'm back in now. And no, not connecting to ISP hub via wireless because its disabled. To clarify when I attempted to click update bandwidth after the first reset (after entering in my settings, no response). Same for editing the wireless devices when the Netduma wireless was back up and running. As per Internet Diagnostics, it has never come back with a result even when I first set this router up. Its sits there with the vertical bars... but nothing. And that's with just a hard wire laptop connected and no wireless connected. So now I am at factory reset. Settings are below. This is not unlike how it was when I first unboxed it. For reference, Netduma plugged into first port on back of u-verse router and other end into POE port. On ATT router, wi-fi disabled and set to pass through. I'm going to double check the ATT u-verse settings next, they should not have changed.

Had a service interruption which resulted in the Netduma being completely unresponsive. Did a reset on the back and router lost SID and neither the password previously set nor the default worked. Got in via hard wired however now when I'm attempting to rename devices e.g. phone or tablet, the damn thing won't take it, it just flips back to General Purpose. What the hell? This router can be flaky as fuck. I try to get the router to update the bandwidth speeds on its own, never works. Try to get it to do an Internet DIagnostic, its sits there forever, never coming back with results. This is the router software version out of the box. R1 debug version 1.03.6h running on rb-951g-2hnd . Is this thing just a piece of sh-- or is there a more stable version of the OS. #notworththemoney oh and after the reset.. can't get download speeds greater than 4mbs... plug directly into the uverse router and 29mbs. factory resetting again.

yes, I have done this. unfortnately it sees the google AP also as a device to be prioritize. regardless after toying with the various settings for a couple of weeks now I can safely say that the Netduma wasn't worth the money in my particular setup. I still have roughly the same in game experiences as before however in all fairness this likely due to a pure wireless setup to the console. Likely I'm going to rip out the Netduma and fly with the Google AP, but not sure what Amazon's return policy is on the NetD. Otherwise it'll likely collect dust or resell it. Pretty interface though.

Hi everyone.
