Just wanted to say Happy New Year to the entire Netduma team.

Hello to all XR1000 and XR1000v2 users! We're finally ready with a new DumaOS update for XR1000 and XR1000v2. This update introduces updates and fixes for our DPI cloud synchronisation. Users will now receive our latest DPI database versions as soon as they're released. This means support for new games in Geo-Filter, Traffic Prio and Traffic Controller. You'll see new titles like Marvel Rivals are supported in Geo-Filter, and new titles like Path of Exile 2 are supported in Traffic Prioritisation. We've also fixed the issue from the previous version where there were no default lists in Adblocker. Now you can begin blocking ads straight away with the click of a button, and the lists will update automatically over time. There are also some backend fixes, including security improvements. This firmware was created to fix any lingering bugs with the feature set of the XR1000, and deliver on all of the features promised when the XR1000 was sold. However it does not introduce any of the exciting new features from DumaOS 4, such as SmartBOOST and Geo-Filter 2.0. For the time being, these features are exclusive to the Netduma R3 gaming router, and we can make no promise that they'll make their way to the XR1000. That said, XR1000 users will continue to receive updates for compatibility with the latest games via Netduma's DPI cloud, and security updates will be provided by Netgear. To request beta access, please reply to this post.

Hi Guys, I was one of the early adopters preordering this router and although I did expect some issues at first till few patch updates came out but it’s been over a year now and still having to endlessly reboot and factory reset router just to get it to function. main issues I get is: •router forgetting settings and things like geo fence suddenly not working and not working again until rebooting or factory resetting and setting it back up. • complete freezes where nothing loads at all. •error saying something along side Duma has not loaded correctly then the try again does nothing •internet speed drops massively to around 3mbps then if I unplug Ethernet and plug it in other router goes back to full speed so a Duma issue. •needing daily reboots at least just to function properly. •every firmware tried has had issues and not just minor ones. •Duma OS not loading at all sometimes doesn’t fix after reboot then again needs factory reset to work temporarily. Just a bit fed up as when it has it’s short periods of working it is great but it’s so inconsistent that I can’t recommend it to anyone in its current state as I spend more time resetting the router and going through the settings than I use it issue free. moved from a XR1000 to this R3 and there has been a few times I’ve went back to the XR as for the most part it is more reliable although both are a mile away from being perfect. I know you guys are a small team so doing my best staying patient but £200 and still waiting a year later to get a bit of my moneys worth out of it, just feels like the customer/community at this point are guinea pigs being free testers not only on the beta firmwares but just on the device as a whole. any help would be great.

merry christmas to all..and i say bye.. I have decided to install OPENWRT because in need dhcp and netwrok works for first. Now i have adblocker on that and work well. i have lose geoip and some other dumaos function but there are many packages that can to be installed ..need a time for setting maybe. Dumaos need works better in software, this router have nice hardware. Bye to all bye guys

We have identified the cause, it's a cloud issue not a firmware issue, we're working to resolve it

I had QOS Enabled since WZ1 and it felt awesome - now 100s of games in the new integration and something felt off switching of QOS for 2 days now and it is a complete gamechanger for me try it for yourself

The netduma team is on vacation as mentioned in many topics. 😉

Just wanted to say thankyou for the heads-up about OPENWRT; I had not realised they started supporting this router (over 2 years ago!) - This has made my Xmas, and I too am now running OpenWrt 24.10.0-rc4 and things are much more stable... Wish I had done this 2 years ago.. Thanks again for making my Xmas

Added everyone that has asked so far. Please read the top post carefully before choosing to install: https://forum.netduma.com/topic/57738-new-xr1000xr1000v2-beta-firmware-dumaos-33688/

We appreciate it all @Netduma FraserSorry for us being pains. If I could afford to upgrade to the R3 I would. But currently stuck on the XR500 and want to use to the fullest potential . Hopefully I can get back on the beta once the problem has been resolved.

We don't give out any ETAs but we're looking into it currently

I totally understand and appreciate that some people may not want to tinker very much. It would be remiss of me not to try and get people to use the router for the reason they bought it in the first place and most often if someone doesn't use it anymore it's because the settings are too much or not fully understood and that's where I come in

Good morning 🌞 Here is an update regarding ps5 chat Now i am at custom setting in the geofilter with geo latency off and ping assist at 50ms and i have readded the ps5 in geofilter as game consoles not as playstation5. Now 98% when i am in chat it connects me to Athens with ping 1- 2 ms and i must say tha the quality of audio chat is much better with 1 or 2 interrupts or none the whole 3- 4 hours of chatting. Only 2 or 3 times it connected me to usa again but it was some other users also from Greece not with my mates. As for the games gameplay it connects me always at nearby servers with pings from 20 to 40 ms. I have boiled its blood of the r3 literally and still rock solid. The only thing i haven't done is to throw it against the wall to see if it will be operational again after that😅😅😅😅😅😅 Still on firmware 290 Fingers crossed 🤞 and i am watching it to see who it goes.

Well in terms of the reason for the recent rumblings that's because an ETA was provided by a colleague prior to Xmas and inevitably it was too ambitious and was missed, then because it was missed and it was the holidays there was going to be a few weeks delay at least and people were frustrated by that. This always happens when an ETA is provided and it's why I never give one, just in this case it was out of my control. The thing with networking is there are so many variables - it connects every internet capable device in your household, there are so many electronics out there and infinite combinations you could have of them. It's entirely possible that there are device combinations that are resulting in a weird incompatibility. There are loads of internet providers out there with different methods to connect, different line qualities, frequency of their public IP changing, games being played etc. It is almost inevitable that there will be issues because someone somewhere is using a device or service or ISP etc that we've never heard of or does something in some odd way we can't predict. I'm not saying that explains everything, just that it's something to keep in mind. I don't have the kinds of issues being reported either, some more niche issues I can reproduce and some I can't - considering I have/had one of the ones prior to launch it's unlikely to be a hardware issue. Some I'm sure will be user errors as well, I can and have gone through every possible setting/situation on the router only to find out that they have the cable unplugged or put into the wrong port or something else they haven't said/explained. You have to assume a certain number of things are true otherwise I'd end up having to guide everyone the very first step but that's not always the case.

If that’s what you think.. you truly expect people to know they’re on vacation and expect us to look though every topic..? we all want a working product with Zero issues.. that’s not happened yet once. It’s ridiculous. We’ve got a right to be pissed off and frustrated.. If you think us being pissed off on something we bought and not work right is gossip, then you’re highly mistaken..

Je suis de Toulouse également, et chez orange, sur ps5. Aujourd'hui j'ai réussi à être dans des salons à 25 24 ms mais sans le geofiltre actif . Alors j'ai désactivé le filtre geo, synchroniser puis éteint le Routeur (jeu fermé également) puis rallumé sans réactivé le geofiltre. Ce soir je réessaye avec le geo et je vous fait un retour.

So... this is a topic just for gratuitous gossip. Thanks for confirming it!

That's great to hear, thanks for the update!

It works!! 🎉 Thank you for your support and your help, I’ve really appreciated it!

You could do both as well as prioritize a device as they will work in conjunction with each other. It'll prioritize based on the traffic it sees first in that sense. So if you don't want that to happen then better to pick specific applications/services.

Yep, I remember it well. Back then I think there were only 4 of us in the forum and Ian was helping me set up for COD Ghosts!

Update the video to make it easier to follow. I messed up some of the instructions, and there’s no proper guidance on the internet. If you don’t follow a step, you’ll get stuck with issues like sending files to the wrong directory or failing to access them. It took me almost a full day to figure out what was wrong, and it was a painful ride with looking up information that I guess no one wants to specify or have videos for, thank me later. Plug the Ethernet adapter in to avoid the error “pcap: no such device exists”. This procedure can be done in most Netgear products as TFTP for some reason fails most of the time, and this resolves this issue into just doing it once, and it works.

I’m not redoing it, but here’s a demo of an R7000 going from OEM to OpenWRT and back. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ghc7mu04mbhupuge4bm60/1228.mp4?rlkey=qee5qf5q5bext6jbvhfz79eb2&st=0b2qj84q&dl=0

Exactly as above

I appreciate you going out of your way for this info. I watched the video and I will try it after work tomorrow. You should take the video down or delete that post though because it contains your personal ip in the COD network page. You dont want some wierdos out there to get that info.

Could be a few things, the speedtest.net server being used is similar to the above, however you can change this so check it's one of the closest to you. The other thing could be that the cable connecting the R3 to the modem is limited, in which case try swapping out the cable, even if it is the one we provided and check again. Test over ethernet if you can ideally. Otherwise for WiFi try this: Split the WiFi bands, give 2.4/5GHz different names and apply - you'll want to connect to 5GHz specifically for speeds Use a WiFi analyzer to find the least congested channel and change to that Experiment with the widths to see what gives better results Ensure it's in an elevated position - not on a metal surface Ensure there aren't any electrical / wireless devices e.g headphones etc within close proximity ~3 feet if possible Set the antennae to this position _ | | _

This is sad that we bought these router and was taunted these great beta features only to have them give up on us so they can focus on their own platform the R3. It’s almost like we’re just the community of test dummy’s. Just give us a working firmware with these features and we will all be happy.

Alright. Well hopefully it’s out by Friday.. or I’m truly tossing this thing in the trash and accepting it as a horrible investment. 🤝 if this new firmware doesn’t fix things after months and months of issues.. That’ll be very unfortunate. thanks

Added you both, you can find it here: https://forum.netduma.com/forum/153-xr1000-beta-forum/

I BEEN having this ISSUES . I dont know WHY You guys removed the old featured LIKE the R1 had. where i was able to give EACH device in my house the amount of bandwidth i wanted them to have, which it was PERFECT for my household, since theres so many equitments at my house. A short example R1: I have a dual pc setup i use to give my gaming PC =5Mbps & Streaming PC = 40Mbps . My girl PC= 300Mbps . PS4/PS5 = 100Mbps each . Others PC's range from = 100Mbps - 150Mbps with the SHARING BANDWIDTH OPTION TURN OFF. I left other devices out the list since theres so many to type like cellphones tables, ipods, nintendo switch, laptops ect ect. My POINT is that this was PERFECT because when i gave my gaming pc only 5Mbps it DIDNT affected other people downloads or uploads at my house because i gave them their own bandwidth. I DONT know why theres NOT an option similar to this featured on the R3. smartboost doesnt help with this in anyway! theres no way to assign banwidth to seperate devices! congestion control DOESNT HELP with this issue! With the R3 if i change my fiber speed the entire network changes at my house. its frustrating. might go back to the R1 but they dont even support it anymore with new updates. i believe the last update was like 3 years ago! SHAME for the day one people who cant afford a NEW router!

Thanks frazer. I am about the next minutes to perform the 478 update. I will keep you posted

perfect now it's fine by disabling geo latency even if it's written (recommended)

As long as you're able to download files then really any device can work

Thanks again for the logs, now the holidays are over they should be able to investigate it more thoroughly

I wouldn't think it'd run better with it off but the option is there for people, if that's what works best for them then great

Welp I tried I guess and I did resync the cloud and now I got the dpi error. Hopefully @Netduma Fraserand the @Netduma Adminteam have some type of fix as now with this dpi class error ad block and the network monitor are no longer performing as they should 😕 [DumaOS] process '//usr/bin/dpiclass' died restart:true, Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:59 [admin login] from source 192.168.1.3, Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:58 [DumaOS] Ubus object 'com.netdumasoftware.dpiclass' now bound, Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:57 [DumaOS] Ubus object 'com.netdumasoftware.dpiclass' added, attempting to bind pending, Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:57 [DumaOS] recovering state com.netdumasoftware.dpiclass, Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:57 [DumaOS] Cloudsync DPI result 'true','nil', Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:57 [DumaOS] recovering state com.netdumasoftware.dpiclass, Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:55 [DumaOS] recovering state com.netdumasoftware.dpiclass, Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:55 [DumaOS] Downloading files at mirror: http://api.netduma.com/file/cloud_updates/dpi/0000000242/NETDUMA_V1/gpg/cloud-0000000242-,pi-NETDUMA_V1-gpg.cloud Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:51 [DumaOS] Ubus object 'com.netdumasoftware.dpiclass' now bound, Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:50 [DumaOS] Ubus object 'com.netdumasoftware.dpiclass' now bound, Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:50 [DumaOS] Ubus object 'com.netdumasoftware.dpiclass' added, attempting to bind pending, Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:50 [DumaOS] Ubus object 'com.netdumasoftware.dpiclass' added, attempting to bind pending, Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:50 [DumaOS] Ubus object 'com.netdumasoftware.dpiclass' added, attempting to bind pending, Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:50 [DumaOS] Ubus object 'com.netdumasoftware.dpiclass' added, attempting to bind pending, Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:50 [DumaOS] Ubus object 'com.netdumasoftware.dpiclass' added, attempting to bind pending, Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:50 [DumaOS] Ubus object 'com.netdumasoftware.dpiclass' added, attempting to bind pending, Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:50 [DumaOS] Ubus object 'com.netdumasoftware.dpiclass' added, attempting to bind pending, Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:50 [DumaOS] DPI looking for updates..., Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:50 [DumaOS] recovering state com.netdumasoftware.dpiclass, Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:48 [DumaOS] recovering state com.netdumasoftware.dpiclass, Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:48 [admin login] from source 192.168.1.3, Tuesday, January 07, 2025 20:00:41

This specific error typically indicates that the Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) classification service has crashed but is automatically set to restart. Reboot the Router: Sometimes, a simple reboot can fix temporary issues with the services. Power off the router for 1–2 minutes and then turn it back on. If the crashing is not affecting your internet performance significantly, you can leave the process to restart automatically.

That's certainly your prerogative, I understand your situation and frustrations - I think it's worth waiting for the next one but if you do end up selling it then I sincerely wish you well with everything

Have the map fully zoomed out then attempt to load up the game, do you see anything being blocked outside your radius at all?

How are you finding OpenWRT Lupin? I am very tempted to give it a go if its more stable, is there any chance you could link me to any info to flashing OpenWRT? Thanks

Added you all. Yes you did, that was some time ago though and just easier to do it this way now.

Logical, it's the port selected automatically! But since you have several gaming platforms, the PS5 may have taken it instead of the Xbox for BO6. Opening a port can only be taken by one device. For example, I use port 49235 manually for my main Xbox, this way other gaming devices that don't have this option don't impact it.

Thanks very much for posting your solution, that's really helpful!

Yup. Interesting they're over in Europe. While you in California.

OK so disabling everything besides UPnP did open my nat on xbox and the game itself .Thank you so much for that.

@Dayman You can try a complete restart of your local network: modem/R3/devices, in order one after the other to see. "Concerning NAT". It is also possible that the "NAT authentication server" is blocked due to the Geofilter restriction. The easiest is indeed to launch the game and see the blocked servers and proceed by elimination. Personally, I am in DHCP behind my main router: ISP Router/R3/Devices. I do not use DMZ or port forwarding... The UPnP relay between my main router and the R3 works perfectly (the R3 is not even in DMZ behind my main router). "NAT open on B06 behind 2 PCs and 2 Xboxes". ---I no longer use Battle.net on PC but the xbox app to download/play this game---

ill try this.

Apologies, here you are: https://forum.netduma.com/forum/144-netduma-r2-early-access/ All sub forums you have access to can be seen on the main forum page too

Great to hear that! So bufferbloat/lag occurs when your connection speeds are being used fully - this happens when doing a download for example and for lower speeds like yours this can happen more often even if a download isn't happening. By reducing your speeds by 20% in this case it prevents your full speeds being used and thus prevents the bufferbloat/lag from occurring.

It's not able to ping the server properly, hence why it's showing the impossible 1ms value and so it can't stabilize it properly as it doesn't know what ping it should be applying. We're working on a new ping method that may help make it more reliable but we don't have an ETA on that.
