A MAC address is a unique identifier of the device, it's not set by the router but by the device itself. If you edited the MAC address it would no longer match the device and the reserved IP would then not match the device rendering it useless. If you've named your devices then it should be easy to find the device you want to edit on the reserved IP list?

No worries at all, glad it was a simple fix, thanks for the update. Any other questions do let us know!

Please provide a screenshot of the LAN & WAN Settings pages and I can advise further - also provide a screenshot of Ping Optimizer > Advanced

I'd suggest trying the new firmware first: https://forum.netduma.com/topic/57223-new-firmware-r3-dumaos-40402-disconnections-fix

Great to hear that, thanks for the update!

Okay do let us know!

I think you or someone else did request it so it's on the list

Looks like from the other topic this may be due to playing custom games, if you go through matchmaking does it work?

Did you add it the device when the console or game was already on?

Gotcha thanks, could you prioritize Call of Duty specifically, not content and see if that triggers please?

Thanks for trying, you said "when I run the WiFi analyser and put it in game mode and use geo filtering my gameplay is actually worse." so do you mean that if you don't use WiFi Analyser and use Game Mode/Geo it is better? If it is, if you try it over 4 days does it return to being delayed?

It will take a little time, they'll be testing BO6 now and then they'll get a total cloud out which should resolve this

You can't give specific priority to the protocol and the game will use whichever protocol it wants to at the time. UDP is generally used for gaming as TCP waits for acknowledgements which slow it down a little.

If it worked it's likely the ID you allowed was then the same that appeared, if it's not working again then there must be more servers there that haven't yet been allowed, when it's blocked and you click on it does it show allowed or can you then allow it and it'll work? I have passed it on so it will get done

As in the RGB on the router isn't triggering to the game configuration or that on SmartBOOST itself the gaming category is not prioritized?

Thanks for the reports, we'll be testing the game and will put out a cloud update where necessary. If it's not detecting properly prioritize your device specifically for the moment or use the Call of Duty Content option in the File Sharing folder and it should work.

Are you using game pass by any chance? If so delete the device from the Device Manager, change the PC to a PlayStation in the Device Manager then re-add it and see if it works please.

That's great to hear, thanks for the comments! Any questions do let us know!

Thanks for the request, I'll add it to the list

If your ping is fine then I don't think it will be the router at fault. You could try the rule 1024-65535 TCP/UDP - Normal - Apply to WAN and see if you have an improvement though

It will be yes and I know it's counter intuitive but what is the input delay like?

Do keep in mind that the servers will be at their busiest around this launch period and therefore the connection is likely to be at its worst. Try playing during off peak times where possible. We'll be testing the game of course as well.

The same way you're forcing the EU servers just move your location over to the US and adjust the radius

Yeah I saw that as a comment as well, they tried direct to their modem without other devices connected, it was better, for a few days then returned. They tried through a mobile hotspot, even with the much higher ping it was better, then returned. The only thing I can think of is that you're being lag compensated, I know you said you tried all servers in the UK/EU and I know it seems like the opposite of what you should do and it is but try forcing servers in the US, do you have a better experience?
