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

Yes that’s correct no mate no issues with geo filter after factory reset.

Thank you i appreciate it 🙏

Added you both

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

Fixed it, had nothing to do with the Netduma, can be closed. 🙂

You are the best! Thank you!

Yep please can you ask for vlan routing also while applying QOS on each interface also please. Also not sure if people know but Vlans can help reduce max and 95th percentile latency , due to the fact that traffic is separated on different logical interfaces, each with its own ingress queues and burst absorption. This means Wi-Fi airtime chaos (retries, aggregation bursts, uploads from phones/TVs) is contained inside the Wi-Fi VLAN’s queues, instead of blocking or compressing ACKs for your wired gaming traffic. When the flows finally merge they’re already smoothed and paced.

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

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.

As mentioned, people will be closer/further away to the server so that will impact it. Given you're in Scotland your closest server for any game is almost certainly in London. Then your location, for example if you're in a major city or the highlands would impact it as well. Also just the general routing your ISP takes to the game servers. Essentially, there are so many variables to consider that you can't really compare your network experience to anyone else - I'd even go so far as saying not to compare to your neighbour as even then the quality of the cables feeding your houses can impact it, the amount of devices being actively used at a time etc.

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

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.

Thanks

Salut ! Tes tests de vitesse sont faits via l'outils Netduma ou derrière un PC en filaire via ookla ? L'outils Netduma utilise parfois des serveurs de test de vitesse non optimisé, le mieux est de rentrer manuellement les vitesses max données par ton FAI !

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

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.

It's tied to the cookies in your browser so if you have the browser set to clear cache/cookies every time you close the browser or tab for example then it will show you the tour each time. Ensure cache/cookies persist for the interface and once completed shouldn't show again

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.

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

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

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.

@BigPapytoIt’s likely an issue with your Ethernet cable. Try replacing it with a new one or using a different cable to check if the problem persists. Don’t use the same cable. I would guess you’re using the one that came in the package, which some came faulty. Just something to point out....they may work as intended but randomly do drop to 100Mbps instead of using full throughput due to bad coiling, etc.

You made one topic which I replied to within a few hours and then you never replied again so we can't know you're still experiencing an issue if you don't tell us. It sounds like you've tried to get support from NTGR this whole time and not had any success but then have ranted here instead which would have been the better place to get support considering we made DumaOS and NTGR didn't. Either way, glad you've got some relief now, we're still happy to help if you want it.

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.

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

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.

Hello, I have found a few suggestions mentioning Reboot Scheduling before and that this would be discussed in several meetings. This was about years ago, is there any word or update if this is coming to Netduma in a firmware update soon? I can restart it myself every few days. But it would be more convenient to have it reboot on it's own for select days of the week during the hours the internet is not being used.

HybridVPN would be very nice in the next update

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
