You'll need to upgrade to the Early Access version for BF6 to filter better, I've given you access: https://forum.netduma.com/topic/60946-new-r3-firmware-dumaos-401147/

I've given you Early Access so you can upgrade to DumaOS 4, please try that and see if the issue continues, even if it does I think it's likely we'll be able to narrow down the issue a little more on that version vs this one. https://forum.netduma.com/forum/144-netduma-r2-early-access/

Presumably you mean during the launch of the game, in which case it does happen where the servers inside your radius at the time don't appear but it doesn't mean you won't connect to them. The cause of your issue here is because the server in Ireland from your first screenshot should be whitelisted and its being blocked instead so there are new authentication servers we're not yet aware of. You'll need to allow any servers that appear there - it may take a few tries and then it should work normally. If you could then provide the IDs we can get them whitelisted.

You shouldn't be getting slow internet with QoS enabled - is this set in the previous way you had it? Are you using Traffic Prioritization? Have you got Adblocker disabled on the router? Is the second switch the same as the first and definitely not a hub?

That does all sound fine, do prioritize your device also just in case the hosting part isn't getting covered by gaming

Those sound more like general network issues rather than specifically NAT. What speeds do you pay for/expect and how have you set Congestion Control/SmartBOOST set?

You don't need the AI responses I understand the wider picture. You said you had friends that were joining and were having issues so if you get them to connect now do they get the same issues?

Could you check if you're having the connectivity issues though still as it is possible its a misreading given the Open NAT on CoD.

The test would disconnect you from the internet that is expected so if you're connected via WiFi you could see that happening. Generally I wouldn't suggest running it as its not 100% reliable and just manually adjust the percentages to achieve the same effect. If you upgrade to the DumaOS 4 firmware then you could use it more reliably but it's still not 100% accurate.

Glad to hear you fixed it, thanks for the update!

Can you provide an uncropped screenshot of the Geo-Filter page showing what you see when you get a game outside the radius? Have you added any servers to your allow list?

Do you have Ping Assist on? If so you'll need to disable that also.

Are you playing via Steam, if so could you add these ports also and check again? TCP/UDP: 27015, 27031-27036 Also supposedly they may require TCP 80/443 which wouldn't usually be needed but may be worth a try. I get your reasoning and it does make sense however we've never had it where a game fails to get an Open NAT when all the correct procedures are followed so it may require more investigation, I can see if the team can test the game next week.

Yeah wasn't able to get to it today unfortunately so it'll be Tuesday at the earliest now due to the national holiday in the UK. However, this kind of thing shouldn't be a problem for too much longer!

Do this: Quit the application/game/client completely - including the game client from the System Tray - important! Remove device from the Geo-Filter Give the PC 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 It's essential the Geo-Filter is enabled before the game client/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.
