Ah d'accord merci beaucoup pour vitre aide et votre patience !! ❤️

NAT is not something the Geo-Filter can cause being open or moderate. You either have an Open NAT or you don't. You do have an Open NAT. The Geo-Filter blocks the server to test your NAT - it's not causing a moderate NAT. The test because it is unable to reach the server defaults to showing moderate. When it is able to reach the server i.e. with the Geo-Filter disabled then it is able to show you Open. This does not mean you only have an Open NAT with the Geo-Filter disabled and Moderate with it enabled. The NAT is open in both scenarios, it is just the reporting that is different. @Krush can you translate what I'm saying please?

Hi Everyone, We’ve been working hard behind the scenes to get a new update with new features and stability fixes out to you. Important Note: You may see "Critical Error: Failed to load minimum required components" after upgrade. Please ignore this message and refresh the page by pressing CTRL+F5. This will reload the page wihout cache. Changelog: Behavioural Identification is a new feature which identifies traffic based on the way it behaves. This allows us to categorise and prioritise traffic which hasn't yet been added to our DPI database, ensuring day one support for new games. It can also assume and categorise encrypted traffic based on the way that it behaves, which means that, for the first time ever, we can prioritise Gaming, Streaming and Video Calls even while you're using a VPN! New Themes have been added to DumaOS, you can now pick from Traditional Red, Gamer Green, Baby Blue or Cherry Pink WPS Support has been added. Press the WPS button on the back of your R3 to start pairing mode for 2 minutes. Translations have been added to the UI, you can now set your DumaOS to Chinese, Dutch, Spanish, French, Hungarian, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Turkish and German. If there are any incorrect translations, you can report them in the change language page. LAN Disconnections have been fixed, you shouldn’t be getting random drop-outs for wired devices anymore. Ping Optimiser has been overhauled and should be quicker and more stable than before. WiFi Auto Channel Selection has been improved, you'll get better speeds over WiFi. PPPoE VLAN compatibility has been fixed, you can now use both PPPoE login and VLAN tags at the same time and everything will work. Memory leaks have been fixed, your unit should no longer have to restart because of memory build up. LAN IPs were sometimes not being assigned before, this is fixed now. Many various frontend fixes. Various Stability and Security Fixes There are more new features coming this year that we've been working on as well. Keep your eyes peeled and we'll hopefully share them soon! You can install the firmware via Settings > Troubleshooting > Upload Firmware, and upload the file below: DumaOS-R3-4.0.540.sig We will be pushing this via the One Click Update over the next week or so.

Yes that would work just fine. If you need the R3 to then handle PPPoE then in some cases this can cause issues but you could put the R3 in the movistar DMZ presumably to avoid this

Do you have a content moderation filter or something similar enabled? It seems that ‘delightful’ is being replaced with ‘delightful’. Try replacing ‘delightful’ with ‘delightful’? Edit: The forum has content moderation enabled. Any configuration copied from the forum would have been invalid, but that does not explain why the original configuration was invalid. It appears the initials of 'Golf Alpha Yankee' are being replaced with ‘delightful’. Try replacing ‘delightful’ with the initials of ‘Golf Alpha Yankee’ or redownloading the configuration?

thanks

Alright thanks I will buy one and test it out

Thanks.

I'll make a request to the team to see if they can add it

Sorry to hear that but at least you've got a working solution and you could take your anger out and make it look better!

I wouldn't have thought it would affect download as well so it may be more to do with how the test is performed. You could perform a big upload and do a ping test alongside and change the percentages to see if it is actually affecting it like the test says.

I've added you both to Early Access where you can see the massive change log for the firmware also: https://forum.netduma.com/topic/60946-new-r3-firmware-dumaos-401147/ It's primarily a bug fix/stability update so I think it's quite stable based on feedback so I'd suggest upgrading to it. I haven't seen that issue so it would be good if you could upgrade and then let us know if that continues.

Thank you for the access to the latest firmware. I will install it and make some tests. I didn't change anything regarding settings, until I started to play with the R3 versions. The ISP modem brand is a Skyworth GN543V. It looks like my ISP can't set that modem as bridge, so they offered me a DMZ so that's what I'm using. I will also be testing out the issue with others routers that I owned in the past, so I can have more options to determine better if it's an issue by my ISP or the R3 itself. Thank you guys

Yeah that bufferbloat test or using PingPlotter with those reductions in percentage is a good way to fine tune it. Don't use the in built test, depending on the available servers/where they are in relation to you they can provide abnormal results.

Good to hear! As above you can upgrade and you shouldn't get the issue as long as you don't factory reset but if you just want to be safe then probably best to stay on the firmware you're on.

Please follow @Netduma Frasersuggestions above. I can only speak on the BGW 320-500 ports. On the AT&T BGW320-500 gateway, the yellow and blue Ethernet ports are both for connecting your wired devices, but they support different maximum speeds: Yellow ports (3 ports) – Standard Gigabit Ethernet Maximum speed: 1 Gbps (1000 Mbps) Also works with 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps devices. Blue port (1 port) – Multi-Gig Ethernet Maximum speed: 5 Gbps Compatible with 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, and 5 Gbps devices. If your internet plan is 1 Gbps or less, there’s usually no performance difference between plugging into a yellow or blue port unless your device has a multi-gig Ethernet adapter. I have my Netduma pugged into the blue port of the BGW 320-500 and all my other devices plugged into the Netduma R3 ports.

I don't know what the blue/yellow ports correspond to on the ATT router so I can't answer that. You don't need to change those advanced settings options. You can leave the lease time at the default for now. Are ALL devices connected to the R3? Have you entered your speeds into the router? How have you setup Congestion Control? How have you setup SmartBOOST? What game are you playing? What platform are you playing on and how is it connected, via ethernet or WiFi? How have you setup the Geo-Filter?

Hi @jorgelcd Can you send me a DM please and we'll work out a timeslot you're available and i can try and push an update to it. I've tried a few times now and have been unable to access it.

Thanks. Strange that it’s happening now? I will try and unlock the HG612 tonight when I’m allowed by the family to take the internet down 🙄

We don't have any specific recommendations for a router to use in this setup but any should work just fine in that scenario!

Okay, I'll be waiting to hear from you.

Ok, I'll give it a try once I'm home and I'll let you know

Thanks Fraser, I’ll do some testing later today after work and report back what happens.

Yes you'd put 0. The ISP timeout must be set to 5 then, if they're otherwise unhelpful perhaps they could change the timeout for you just to see if the issue improves

Good to hear you got it sorted, it was just a security update so it should have no effect on use whatsoever

Grazie a te 😊😊😊

Good to hear, thanks for the update!

I tried that a while back...didn't work for some reason. I have no complaints about this router. It performs as advertised and the OS is awesome.

Port forward 3074 for one device and 3075 for the other and then you should be able to get an Open NAT at the same time.

Good to hear thanks for the update!

I'm part of the Early Access for DumaOS4 but I can't find the file for that. Any help with that? Edit: Nevermind, lol. My fault.

Download the latest firmware from the NTGR site and then go to 192.168.1.1/adv_index.htm and that should take you to the NTGR settings where you can then re-upgrade the firmware. Close the tab, wait 4 minutes then access normally and see if it loads.

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.

Hey Netduma fellows, Hope you’re all having a great day! I wanted to share the best settings I’ve found for improving my online gaming experience. Now, I’m not sure if the Netduma team will be happy about this because, honestly, none of these settings are related to the Netduma router. I’ve been using Netduma routers for over five years, starting with the R1 model. Sometimes, they performed great; other times, not so much. Over time, I began to question whether using QoS alone was the best approach—until I was introduced to SQM (Smart Queue Management). Some of you might already be familiar with SQM, CAKE, and FQ_CoDel, but let me tell you—SQM is an absolute game-changer when running on high-performance router hardware with OpenWRT. My Solution for Consistent Performance The key to getting good, consistent results (which has helped me maintain a 3+ K/D ratio in every FPS game) was: 1. Using a high-performance router that supports OpenWRT 2. Enabling CAKE as the QoS algorithm Since CAKE requires significant CPU power, I chose the Flint 2 router, which can efficiently shape over 500 Mbps of traffic while running CAKE. The Best Part? Set It and Forget It The only tuning required is adjusting overhead and MPU (Minimum Packet Unit) settings. Other than that, once set up, it just works. That’s all I wanted to share. Hope this helps someone out there struggling with network consistency!
