Whichever blocks what you need to block, it will be working yes, you can see on the Adblock page when it does block

I don't know to be honest, it's a Netgear hardware feature

70% is the recommended starting point but you may be able to improve on it. You only need the game or the device added, not both

It may be quite hard for us to diagnose this without the logs, has it still been fine with SmartBOOST disabled? What is the model of the modem/router the R3 is connected to and how have you set that to ensure all traffic flows to the R3? E.g. R3 in its DMZ, modem/bridge mode

Setup PPPoE on the web interface instead, does that work properly then?

It's still coming. What issues are you having exactly?

Have you factory reset since upgrading to this one? I would recommend it as there has been a lot of changes

VPN generally increases your ping so I wouldn't recommend it usually. If you have your Geo/SmartBOOST/Congestion Control setup correctly and it is still happening then it may be the game. In which case playing during non peak times you may see a better experience - if so it will be the game

Great to hear that, thanks for the update so far, do keep us posted!

You can disable it that's not a problem. What percentage had you set the sliders to? What do you mean it doesn't respond? Yes that's correct for DNS. Yes setting to 100% essentially disables it. I think we'll be going over it in a video, I'm not sure how much we can say about how it works at the moment. You can always downgrade. Generally if its not in the changelog then it's not been included, we're still working on improvements and fixes. You can adjust Congestion Control manually. Could you expand on that? Well PPPoE/DHCP is working otherwise you wouldn't have a connection at all - it doesn't affect your gameplay quality. It'll be down to have you have the settings done, you may need to fine tune them as the firmware has changed. You can downgrade if you wish to.

Do you get an error when trying to run the test at all?

Okay that's great, that's what I'd suspect. There aren't any game specific settings that you definitely need to do. As long as you have the Geo-Filter setup to get the closest servers and have Congestion Control setup to eliminate local congestion and SmartBOOST has your device/gaming prioritized you should be good.

Sorry for the late reply, you can ignore the stat part, that's quite a new feature so may need tweaking. It can still stabilize the ping to peers I believe but it may not work with every single game

Check if you experience the same direct to your modem

Disable Steady Ping, are you forcing the closest servers? Congestion Control is set how exactly?

As above. I wouldn't have thought it'd really negatively impact your connection at all, may have just been that game. Networking has lots of variables so games can vary game to game all the time

Try disabling SmartBOOST and the protection options in settings

Ah that's great to hear, thanks for the update!

The test has a compatibility table, the link you provided isn't compatible, ublock is, hence the difference in the results.

NAT Type 2 is open so that's good. It's reporting incorrectly, if its open then they'll be working

You order has shipped today, you should have received a tracking email

Do you play any other games? If so does it ping those servers okay or just this game you have an issue with?

Is this on the beta? I don't think I've seen many people get Rapp not loaded on this version. Use routerlogin.net/adv_index.htm to login and then try re-upgrading from there. Also just to double check, you're not still on RC10 are you?

We're aware of that and will get it sorted. As long as you don't reboot the router the disabled state should persist.
