You just admitted it lag spikes when using it though??

Sorry to hear that! We don't give out any ETAs but hopefully not much longer for one

Hello bro thanks for your reply. So I'm confused, what should we be doing? Turn on Geo filter and set my location to which country? I live in the UK so I just want to understand. Thank you bro!

Thanks Fraser

Okay that's good then, the router isn't limiting you, it's just the speed test provider the router uses isn't always the most accurate so you can ignore that

Ya I've addressed all of this. Thanks though

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

Obrigado.

Either way, it's up to you, there won't be any conflicts

Good to hear! DNS won't make a difference for gaming so unnecessary to change it. There isn't a backup settings function currently but it has been requested so may come in future.

Good to hear, don't forget the Early Access firmware as well

Just updated and it seems like the issue disappeared, did not need to reset factory settings either. Interface loads way faster too. Thanks for the access.

That fixed it. Thanks, Fraser.

Invite de commande ping 8.8.8.8 https://www.ionos.fr/digitalguide/serveur/outils/commande-ping/ —- Mettre le PC en filaire derrière le R3

Ça donne quoi, si tu fais un ping vers 8.8.8.8 sur ton PC ?

@purpleandgold33You shouldn't rely on it since it's inaccurate and requires an update. I believe they are working on a fix to improve its accuracy. In the meantime, adjust your sqm manually.

Hey there once again @Netduma Fraser Here are a couple more i’ve saved up: 180E27B CGNS86 180EBMD 180E2GO 180E2FE 180ED0J

To answer your questions: It's a NTGR feature so they don't consult with us when removing one of their own features but I expect so. Unlikely, they probably removed it intentionally. Check the DumaOS version on the System Information page if it starts with 3.3 then yes, if not no. Yes if you really want that functionality

Auto will work when you're gaming (assuming that's what you're prioritizing on SmartBOOST) so you don't need to set it to Always

Can't believe it's been 11 years since I joined the forum , during that time I have had the R1 / R2 XR500 with R2 OS and now the R3. Today my R3 is plugged into my Asus RT-AX88U Pro , Just a little bit on the Asus : Rock solid piece of kit with great WIFI coverage and a good amount of gaming tweaks within the OS including various different types of QOS , on average we have around 22 wired and wireless devices connected to the Asus no issues ever . Only the Xbox is a wired connection to the R3 , I have flip flopped from both routers over the last few months and always go back to the R3 from a connection perspective it just feels much better , for me it is best in class it does what it is supposed to do from a gaming / connection perspective . HOWEVER - I had some time over the Xmas break off work and decided to plug the R3 directly into my ONT , so all devices connected to the R3 as it is designed to do , BTW just to say I think the OS on the R3 is excellent from a visual perspective and provides so much information and options to fine tune , much better than the Asus in my opinion , the following is what I experienced over a full week : Daily drops in WIFI or internet connection longest period of connection 1.5 days before I re boot WIFI would not reach as far as my Asus , ring door bell and Hive would not function correctly Family complaints Gaming was even better Where I am going with this ? Is this a hardware or software problem ? , I have tried to live solely on the Netduma router previously but it never delivers on a stable connection as my default network router when everything is connected to it . If it is hardware issue hen I for one would be willing to pay more to have an Asus type performance with the Netduma OS . I know we have had the Netgear experiment but not sure that is still an option mine died a long time ago . In closing I love the Netduma OS , it is back now plugged into my Asus and in my opinion gives me the best gaming connection on the market without doubt . It is just not capable of being a default network router managing all devices . You could I suppose without being dis respectful call it a one trick pony ..... but hey it's one hell of a trick . .

Added you both

I'm sure it's easily resolvable, let us know if you want to continue

Manual is way better, ping optomizer gets it wrong most of the time for me and you have to keep using it everyday incase your congestion changes. Manual I just set it to as close to 0 bufferbloat as possible and that's it done.

You are the best! Thank you!

None. I've left everything default. Just to follow up from last night, I have updated to the new firmware and factory reset the router. Currently everything seems great! Played 3 rounds of bf6 so far with no micro stutters and no dosconects. the wifi status light are actually functioning now. I will update if somthing changes

As above the team will all be back tomorrow to continue work on it, as always we'll make a post with the firmware when its ready

As your title indicates, it has been new year and Christmas holidays very recently so Netduma staff would have been having a break with their families, just like you did I guess? Most companies return back to work tomorrow so I imagine the staff will continue working on the update from tomorrow.

I tried what Capoeira82 suggested with the marking on the map and so far it works. It seems to be the solution.... Thanks.

Oui c'est ça ! Vous jouez en équipe ? En fonction de la proximité du serveur la latence n'est pas la même entre les membres d'un groupe de jeu ! Le jeu utilise des serveurs dédiés, l'hôte n'est plus le relais comme avant sur du serveur P2P !

Okay thanks Fraser so all good with the Netduma R3 I was concerned trying to bring latency down for gaming I have made mistakes with Netduma settings .Playing between 26ms and 31ms latency but other gamers are saying they are 16ms so I believe they are closer to the server if that’s right .

Hi Krush and Fraser thank you both for replying . This is what I got earlier but can try Speedtest aswell.

As above, do the speed test on speedtest.net, do you get your expected speeds then?

Well I'm glad I'm not the only one with this issue. I think I will purchase a good wifi extender and go that route. But ya all my other devices connect, they are just weak. But thanks for your help

The Congestion Control aspect is codel & our own proprietary algorithm I believe

So what I dont understand.... When using Exit Lag, youve said your pings haven't changed but when using Exit Lag you now also get lag spikes for 2 - 5 seconds (that is crazy long!). So tell me, what benefit is Exit Lag giving you as from what youve said already, it's giving you MORE issues?

In Battlefield 6, only the UK, Ireland and Germany servers are currently available for Europe, which is clearly visible when you start the game without a geo filter.

We can't do anything about that necessarily, if they don't want to connect you to those other servers for whatever reason they won't. Could be they're only used in times of heavy load, when other servers are down etc

Great to hear and thanks for the ID!

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.

Which site u did this ?

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.

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.

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

I would like to ask if there are other users who have not been able to play call of duty black ops 6 on PS5 because of using netduma R3 Since I searched a lot about this problem: HUENEME-NEGEV, I looked for a solution on reddit. I need to use the mobile hotspot to enter the game first, and then immediately set it back to use the network cable to enter the game, so that I can use netduma R3. Are there any other less complicated settings? I tried restarting netduma multiple times but still can't get netduma to work properly. I hope there will be an update

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

For anyone anyone that wants good hitreg on BO6, this is my setup based on 1Gbps fibre Internet. 1. I've set congestion control to 50.5% for both up and down which gives me the best bufferbloat results. When tuning for Bufferbloat, pay attention to Jitter. Try and get it under 10ms. I managed to get mine under 3ms as I have very good Internet here in my country. 2. Set Congestion Control to Auto or Recommended. I keep mine on Always On unless I have big downloads. 3. I only prioritised Call of Duty (Series) for Apps and my PC for device. You don't need to prioritise Call Of Duty (Content) as @YT_LowPingKinghas mentioned in his videos Call of Duty (Series) covers Call of Duty (Content) as well. Focus on getting your Jitter as low as possible. I've noticed tremendous consistency and crispy hitregs just by doing this. I've uploaded a video of my gameplay and its been very consistent from game to game. Do give it a try and hope this helps. Nothing complicated to setup as the router does everything properly with 540 firmware but Geofilter is kinda broken now as it doesn't indicate which server on the map its connecting to anymore. I hope this can be fixed in the next update. And do factory reset your router after upgrading to 540 firmware. I got away without doing factory reset last few updates but 540 firmware wasn't having it. Had ping spikes and weird issues until I factory reset and it was GOLDEN.

I can't find the cold war servers anymore you removed them i only find warzone mw2 mw2 is dead put the cold war servers back

It's available on the latest firmware, please update to that and you'll be able to do this.
