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

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

That fixed it. Thanks, Fraser.

Please upgrade to the Early Access version and see if it still occurs - once it's fully upgraded factory reset then monitor it

@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.

No worries at all, do keep us updated and any questions/issues just ask!

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

Thank you i appreciate it 🙏

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 . .

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

You are the best! Thank you!

I’m using a Huawei CPE Pro 5 as my 5G modem. I’ve tested multiple bands and currently have the modem band-locked to the combination that gives me the best SINR and RSRQ, rather than chasing peak throughput. My goal was stability and lower jitter. My jitter has dropped to around 3–4 ms, compared to ~5 ms previously, without any changes on the R3 side. I’m assuming this improvement is related to tower load, scheduling, or band conditions rather than router configuration.

We've not had anyone have this issue before and in those scenarios it's usually some unique aspect of the persons setup contributing to the issue, it's likely we'll get to the bottom of it with continued troubleshooting but if you'd like to return just email us and we can go from there.

Obrigado

Blocking devices using bandwidth when you're playing etc is an extreme measure, as long as you have Congestion Control setup and SmartBOOST set to prioritize you then they won't be causing any issues

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.

Hi Krush, I am playing on my own. Totally understand thanks again Pete

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.

That's just log spam, we're aware of it, you can ignore it as it won't be causing any issues. You can reset if you like but it's unlikely to make a big difference. You're saying the connection is weak but are they experiencing any issues with the WiFi specifically?

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

That's the plan!

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

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!

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.

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

Good and bad hit registration in game doesn't usually correlate to a ping difference - When it's REALLY bad is when I start to see weird spikes, but only in game. I'm usually around 18-20 ms to Ashburn or Norfolk according to the router, and in game my ping will generally match up. I'm leaning towards combination of ISP and game server issues. I've done everything on my end to optimize, but I have no control over the rest of the path. Funny enough, I just chucked all the prioritization and congestion settings out the window and connected to wifi instead of ethernet - so no steady ping, no geo filter, no "gaming" prioritization, and sliders at 100% - and I still see a 20 ms ping and while hit reg and all that is still pretty bad, *I seem to take less damage*. So all the optimization is doing is giving the server better communication that I'm dead, it seems like lol! Next I'll hotspot from my phone and see how much help the game server gives me.

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!

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."

It has improved by 100% on Netduma's side, and I'm finding games in London and Germany. (UK-based). But there are so many issues with BF6 right now with hitreg and servers.

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.

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.

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

Last night I tried to turn off GEO-FILLER and was able to play COD OF DUTY BLACK OPS 6. I will try it for a week and update you again. Thank you 🙏🏾

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