steady ping has been an absolute game changer for me when the server gets destroyed to lag and etc. try it out. I kept mine on default value

It's the Windows Task Manager

All sorted somehow

Do this: Quit the application/game/client completely - including the game client from the System Tray - important! Remove device from the Geo-Filter If you're on PC then give it the PlayStation Device Type in the Device Manager Resync from the Geo-Filter Map menu Re-add the device to the Geo-Filter Set up the Geo-Filter how you like Wait 2 minutes Boot up application/game/client To force servers you need to do the following: It's essential the Geo-Filter is enabled before the game client (e.g. Steam etc) if on PC or platform (e.g. Xbox, PlayStation) or the game have been launched. If you change Geo-Filter settings when you're on the game then you will need to restart the game for those changes to take effect, otherwise it will use the previous Geo-Filter settings and appear not to be working. For settings ensure Ping Assist and Geo-Latency are disabled in the Geo-Filter menu that can be found by clicking ⋮ in the top right hand corner of the page and go to Settings. Strict Mode should also be enabled, it is enabled by default so if you haven't disabled it you can ignore it. If you have disabled it or want to check it can be found in the same Settings menu as above or in Settings > Troubleshooting > Advanced > Developer Options depending on your firmware version. Fast Search should also be disabled which it is by default so can be ignored if you haven't changed it, otherwise this can be found in the same place.

No worries, do keep us updated, would be interested to hear what they find.

The whole purpose of the router is to allow you to get the best connection possible and give you the freedom to have more choice in the servers you play on. We've never advertised it as something to get you easier games. You're referring to HybridVPN which is in settings, as normal you'll need a VPN subscription from a 3rd party VPN provider that supports OpenVPN or Wireguard configuration files to use it.

Added, let us know how you get on https://forum.netduma.com/forum/151-netduma-r3-early-access/

Go to Settings > DHCP > Add Rule > Select a device and save, repeat for all your devices. Also in DHCP settings set the lease to 10,000. Make those changes, reboot the router from the interface and see if it happens again.

Can I have access also please? Thanks! Edit: Nevermind, I wasn't logged in so couldn't see the early access section. I'm already added!

Ok understood, that makes sense. I will get that added. Thank you for your help

Okay so you don't need to worry then, you'll have an Open NAT, the Geo-Filter is just blocking the server its using to test your NAT, it's not actually causing a strict NAT. There is likely a blocked icon on the map when you do the test that you can allow if you'd like but it's not necessary.

Alright, thank you - No Big Difference:)

My ping heatmap is not working for black ops 7. i have tried resyncing the cloud aswell and it just doesn't seem to work... Any ideas?

Yeah doesn't look very good at all, best to avoid where possible!

We don't give out ETAs but it won't be this year now, hopefully January if everything goes to plan

@Mach3rYou won’t get accurate results if the speed test bypass is enabled. You need to disable it. Also, set the congestion control mode to "Always On."

Good to hear, do keep us updated if it worsens

Game servers don't always respond to pings which is why you'll see that, it's not specifically indicative of being a bad server as it doesn't impact the connection quality. What ping are you getting to the servers on average?

Unplug the router from power for 10 minutes, plug in, then wait 4 minutes before accessing and see if it works. That will let any residual power drain and hopefully will then be more stable.

Further improving the Oklahoma issue/incorrect servers

They do follow similar patterns each year, for example around launch people usually complain of bad connection more then as less people play it gets better, then during the holiday period it ramps up again, then goes down again then when the next is announced it goes up again etc. So as you said it is possible you'll play on it again soon. There is no reason from the router perspective though that it wouldn't allow you on specific servers.

It seems to be working for me, all my games have been in London and not placed over the water in the USA Very smooth games apart from when the EA servers have a wobble!

Re-add it then launch the game and watch the map (fully zoomed out), there will be a blocked icon when it tries to connect, click it then add it to your allow list. You may need to do the process a couple of times to get all the servers but then it'll be fine. If you could provide the IDs of the servers we can get them added to the whitelist.

Bonsoir, j'ai également fait une longue pause de quelques années ( COD + netduma R1).me voilà de retour sur BF6 et j'ai reçu mon R3 ce jour ... Je vais tester cela dans les jours a venir. Je trouve BF6 excellent, après 120h de jeux je m'amuse toujours autant même lorsque je tombe sur des warriors ( j'ai 40 ans et plus les mêmes reflexes 😅 il faut se l'avouer) A bientôt

The btc miner is a standalone running a version of Linux so there yes no way I know to connect it to my pc but I will follow your advice and prioritize my pc instead of an activity.

Good to hear, thanks for the update, glad you're having a good time!

Thanks for information. Yes I found the sweet spot now on cc now. My pings are usually rather low but there’s a lot jitter on my path so that can cause negative feedback from game especially in PvP. So Steady Ping helps me. It makes hit markers and incoming landing with good frame by frame accuracy rather than massive bursts traffic like the famous one hit/10 bullets all in one. I will prioritise it as it’s very I download during gameplay. It was on off. I feel having backup it’s better than not BTW I can fully BF6 without having filter turned off in geo filter. Plus all servers I get seems to be on their rightful location e.g London or Frankfurt. So thanks to you and your team for your hard working locking that down

Don't cover Germany and enable crossplay and you're likely to connect to Italy more often - it is one of those servers though that don't always appear to be active

Yeah yeah, I dont have any problems. Only one is the fact that I cant find italian o swiss servers. I only find games in german servers

Thank you 🙏 Fraser then i’m going to just make sure I deny it i have those ones blocked, but a bud of mine still sees them showing up, it’s probably better to wait then.

Thank you.

That would be much appreciated if you could share it. Thanks, Fraser.

Glad to hear that sorted it, thanks for the update! I'll also pass that onto the team to investigate as it seems to be the opposite of what should happen.

We are aware of that, it should be back to normal now but if not we'll get it updated asap next week

The link for this firmware version in the first post is still active yes

That did it, don't know why. Thank you!

----- XR1000 | Nighthawk WiFi 6 Pro Gaming Router ----

This guide will help: https://support.netduma.com/docs/dumaos-4/adblocker/

Excellent! Nothing specific to use them both, as with the XR just set the R3 in the DMZ on the EE router

Ok obrigado.

a me hanno funzionato per qualche giorno ma oggi di nuovo ko

Okay so it is accessing, it's nothing to do with your certificates. Reboot the router, close the interface, wait 4 minutes then attempt access. You can also try accessing from routerlogin.net without the /adv_index.htm on the end. Good suggestion, I'll add that now.

No worries, just wanted to update you an EE update had come but issues still linger, but glad you and your team are on the case. Fraser, if you don’t mind indulging me. Please say if you want me to move this another discussion, I’ll it edit out and start a new general discussion. But I’ve had a few issues with WiFi enhancer with EE. It’s not the router or your feature set, as geo work but game mode just gives up working. This isn’t the only issue, it’s mainly down to their buggy customer app. The feature set is limited, you can only toggle boost on or off, and you can’t set congestion control limits, just run ping optimiser and hope the values are good, although you can’t see what values it sets. There’s no router admin settings, you got to access DUMA os via going deep into ee WiFi controls things. My warzone squad mate, told me to just get an R3 because you can be more in control plus you know what settings are set, etc. I got an R3 before, we did talk about it back then. My BT hub didn’t allow or have a bridge mode, and messing with DMZ wasn’t something I was qualified on. So I was using R3 directly into Bt Ont but couldn’t get it connected, you did offer to help but as I was going away, and my streaming made family don’t go to bed until 12:30 -1am troubleshooting was challenging coz of this. I sent it back because I was weary what if it didn’t work and migrated from BT to EE for simplicity. Im leaving EE as my issues with the service, some of advisors were rude and blame the issues on my set up lol. Sadly they don’t have your kind, pleasant mannered willingness to help. Ive just order an R3 So the two isp I’m eyeing up is sky or talk talk, they use DHCP/IPOE. I heard sky uses something 61 or 62 which R3 may struggle with. I heard there shouldn’t be an issue with talktalk. So could you confirm if the R3 as a pure router would work with these? And am I right to assume that I can plug it into my ee Ont (modem) and it’ll able to work, but just at reduced speeds?

Following this

The R3 is the worst piece of networking gear I’ve ever used. It tanked my internet speeds, ruined my PS5 performance, and made my gaming experience significantly worse. Connecting directly to my ISP router wipes the floor with your product. This was advertised as a premium solution, but in reality, it’s a downgrade and a waste of money. I’m done wasting time troubleshooting something that should have worked out of the box.

Do you get the same issue if you disable the Geo-Filter?

BO6 is definitely on heatmap, it does sound like you need to resync the cloud on Heatmap and Geo-Filter and then try again We're testing a cloud update internally currently and then we'll make it public.

I installed OpenWRT and SQM after hours of figuring it out and battling with myself. I finally managed to get everything set up. They even suggested I do a bufferbloat test. "See screenshot," and after several tests on my favorite video game, COD, the result is amazing. I didn't know he had created such a well-thought-out geofilter.

HybridVPN would be very nice in the next update
