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.

THIS ARE JUST SETTINGS OUTSIDE OF THEIR GAME CONFIGS. THIS IS MORE TOWARDS THE R3 AND YOUR PC BACKGROUND PROCESES! you will still need to adjust your ingame settings according to your own specs. ect ect ect. this are the ADSOLUTE BEST settings for your bullets to kill as FAST as possible! 1. heres a pic of my fiber without the R3 2. Heres a pic of my speed with the R3 and all the settings i dissable inside the R3 to eliminte latency inside my router. turn these settings off at your own risk. i did and havent usse it in a month w out any issues. 3. run some bufferbloat test until you find your sweat spot 4. nornal speed test web is down for me idk y, but you need to lower your jitter as much as you can even when you do a simple speed test. 5. look at your task manager and if you have more proceses than what I have, It might be the reason why your jitter is always HIGH! or your game feels laggy and dogpoopy. 6. if you need help lowering your proceses without damaging your pc. check this link. it will take you to this guy who is a profesional. he worked with people like clix, bugha, and more pros. watch the video and follow the instructions. MAKE SURE you create a restore point right before your start or do anything. the only thing im experiencing is once i did mine. i cant no longer play music audio without having to RE-install my media player again. i dont mind that. so i dont care. i use my other pc for that. i can still do everything tho, everything works normal. this is the channel. 7. this is my congestion control settings 8. my games feels amazing no more shoot first and die first. anything outside of my control like servers lag lol well yall know how that goes.

To be honest, the NetDuma community isn’t really a typical customer base. We’re more like passionate enthusiasts with a mild addiction. We complain, we debate, we push for more… and yet we’re still here. That says something. We appreciate that updates for the R3 are in progress, and it’s good to hear they’re substantial. But there’s another thought that many people here share — some openly, others quietly refreshing the forum every day. We’re not just waiting for firmware. We’re waiting for the next level of hardware. If a more powerful next-gen router — call it an R4 or whatever it ends up being — were announced tomorrow, I genuinely believe a huge portion of this community would upgrade instantly. Not because of marketing pressure. Not because we’re being manipulated. But because we believe in the idea behind NetDuma, and we want to see it running on hardware that truly matches its ambition. Sometimes the frustration you see here isn’t negativity — it’s anticipation. People don’t get loud about products they don’t care about. The reason discussions get heated is because expectations are high. Give us DumaOS running on seriously powerful hardware, with proper headroom for the future, and that wouldn’t just be another release. It would be a statement. We’re not angry customers. We’re impatient supporters. And that’s a good problem to have.

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

It's right there bro. Right before your eyes. "Slightly above average". Read it.

Those are ridiculously large in a I'm scared it will start scurrying across the room kind of way

https://forum.netduma.com/forum/151-netduma-r3-early-access/

It took a lot of time and effort to finally achieve this result. Trying things out, shifting the mesh system, and adjusting the netduma. I'm very happy with the result.

Hi all! App version 1.3.26 is now available on the App Store & Play Store for iOS and Android. Not many changes since 1.3.20, but here they are: Fixed iOS 26 can't interact with views Fixed Ping Heatmap doesn't display servers with longitude of 0 Updated to use new Netduma Logo The biggest issue was an incompatibility with iOS 26, which was causing a lot of issues. This release should resolve those issues.

I appreciate the info and it helped a lot! Happy to be part of the Duma gang again.

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

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

I will pass it onto the team, it's a good suggestion!

Hi guys, Just wanted to pop into the off-topic section and introduce myself. I've been reading the forums for a while and figured I'd finally say hello. Hope everyone's connections are stable and the lag is non-existent today. Happy gaming!

Thank you very much, we do appreciate it, I'll pass it on!

i reached out to nord and they said it has something to do with cod and vpns i got a refund and took protonvpn ..im using the wireguard which works amazing on the r3 you can close this topic

i geofence the same servers as bo6 and it works perfect

Rumor has it that Microsoft is finally using Azure servers for Call of Duty. I think this may be the case as there are some new locations that have never appeared before. Like @DanologyUK mentioned if you played the beta the servers will be in the same spot. Black ops 6 will be a decent indicator of where servers should be. You can always have your geofilter page open and the moment you load into multiplayer you'll see every server available worldwide for a few seconds. You can click individual servers to see what the best ping is ETC.

Okay well the PingPlotter results are looking very good so I think you can ignore the waveform test

Good advice above! We'll be doing more cloud updates including addressing the Oklahoma servers always appearing

If anyone is struggling connecting with skybroadband using a third party modem like an vigor 130 just follow the steps in the picture below. Sky uses an identifier so we need to enter that into the R3 as below 👇 WAN settings then PPPoE then type whats in the picture below exactly and apply and its good to go ! remember to download the latest firmware too

Update: speeds stayed the same. I think i was to blinded on the duma side since i was going to game when i noticed the issue. Rebooting the to link and the duma brought back the speeds. I now made a reboot schedule weekly for the tp link, wish duma also had that feature in its settings since i dont use its wifi. Thread can be solve now. Thank you all!

Copying your settings my rgb doesn’t change still green/ yellow/ brown but it’s white at the edges.

Most of the issues with PPPoE that we've had in the past have usually been with QoS on the upload side not working with it which has been resolved. The issue currently is that a small percentage of PPPoE users are experiencing disconnects, this is most likely due to the nature of the connection method (i.e. that it 'logs' in to the internet service and can have a timeout on it) but we will fix that.

Fala, meu querido! Muito obrigado pela disposição em me ajudar com tantas dicas, muitas inéditas pra mim. Vou te dar um toque por mp, ok?

We'd always generally advise staying on the latest or Early Access versions but as above people find different versions work best for them so experiment and see what works best for you

you can use antennas off of most any old routers if you have some laying around. The ones to my old XR450 will fit on the R3.

Obrigado

You can use one or the other, you don't need to use both as above

If you can't get internet through the R3 without PPPoE being set on it then what you've done is fine

@Netduma FraserNever mind, I figured it out. I had it set to bandwidth test mode. I conducted a real stream and ran a speed test, which capped my speed, and I didn't experience any dropped frames.

Ping optmizer definitely needs overhaul

Thank you, your help solved my problem.

where can i get a copy of that firmware?

@Netduma Fraser Very easy as explained in my other posts it puts the R2 into a state where the router acts as a mesh and the internet works fine but soon as it tries to load the duma os software it fails it even states in the logs it cant start certain duma os components it tells you exactly what the issue is without giving certain info if the router was at fault the router would not work at all no matter what it only does not work when it tries to load the duma os witch its stuck on after a firmware update It's firmware related just like all posts that got archived due to the same issue where users R2 becomes bricked unuseable hense they got arcvived to hide them from others seeing them the issue going on .. I never missed all the posts tho before the got taken down by yous at duma why hide posts that are connected to other users issues no personal details ect was posted yet they was removed but all other posts stay active lmfao come on .. I was not born yesterday Ano yous dont want to take responsibility as its will costs duma but at the same time dont push updates that can brick the routers without correctly testing them if aint no way to resolve the issue if it happens .. I was offered to buy another router do you know how cheeky that sounds after duma firmware bricked my router to start with how about you replace all the bricked routers for free like a real company would do but hell no yous blame other things try pass blame on stating its a router fault no its not its firmware i have tetsed the router it works fine its the duma os that is the issue nothing else .. Try telling me its a router issue now after reading many users with the same issue posted on reddit where you cant remove comments or posts all at the same time all very recently to same time around when mine done it bricked the device ...

Correct, you wouldn't be able to solve that. Generally in the case of ISP congestion there isn't much you can do except perhaps switch to a provider that isn't as subscribed to in your area.

@THE_DON_PABLO Crazy you mention this seems like you aint the only one in this boat .. I went and bought a xr1000 saved myself the hassle least its made by netgear not netduma had no issues so far but av got a R2 that does exactly as you state and many others otherwords its bricked .. Only offer i got was certain % amount of a new router lol Not going to buy another when old one failed after a firmware update .. Duma will state its a router issue but nothing todo with the router as router works fine without the duma software what wont work is the actual duma software wont load nor give any internet connection nor does factory reset even reset anything .. If the router was the cause how can you explain how it works without the duma software but with duma software its bricked lol They traet there customers like they are brain dead but infact just makes therm look worse as people aint stupid with whats going on no wonder netgear went seprate ways with netduma .. They dont want anything todo with them no suprise really

We will test the game, can't guarantee we'll have support for the beta specifically but when it is out properly we'll have it available (assuming it works)

@Netduma Fraser Perfect that worked thank you very much

We did have that with previous versions of DumaOS so presumably it would be simple enough to add it back in. Thanks for the suggestion, I'll pass it along to the team!

There doesn't appear to be anything wrong with the ping, in this scenario I think it'd be best to block the server and try to force another that may play better

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.
