Pretty much what's been provided in the guide.
Now, what also helps, is using the geo-filter. Everyone will be a little different.
Some will have better games playing on local, or close servers.
While others may have a better chance in playing on servers a little further away.
Our ISP's routing to the servers all differ.
So, using the geo-filter and isolating servers that give a better experience per user.

Hi all, 
I just wanted to post to say I got the Netduma R3 last week and I was still struggling with the hit registration of shots in MWIII as of yesterday.
I saw a post today by @Spritekid242and since I've changed settings a bit it's a night and day difference so big thanks to him. 
I've never used a Netduma router so I am no expert but this seems to work for me. 
My current setup
Geo filter simple instead of custom. For whatever reason the geofenced points didn't seem to work as well for me.
I play on Xbox so I added that in as a device
Steady ping on simple mode
Geo assist on
Ping assist off 
Strict mode on
Fast search off
Smart boost
Gaming top priority and device Xbox top priority also 
 
This is the part that I believe made the biggest difference as suggested on the post by Spritekid242. I'm not sure if it is the bandwidth reservation or the congestion control but these are the two settings I changed today. 
Bandwidth reservation on smart boost set to max 20mbps upload and download for all ports TCP / UDP for Xbox only 

 
This part will be depend on your connection, I recommend to manually set these as when it found the down / up manually it was at like 98% down and 99% and wasn't stable on a bufferbloat test

 
To find the manual numbers I just 
Set congestion control mode to always on and deselected speed test bypass.
Then adjust the sliders down around 5% at a time until you get 0ms on download active and upload active latency on the waveform.com bufferbloat test. I was actively watching these to see if they actually raised above 0ms on the test. One thing I noticed is that I would still get an A+ on the waveform bufferbloat test even if it fluctuated and went back to 0ms. I think it's better for it to never go above 0ms. 
You will also see the max latency ms figures go lower as you bring the percentage down. You will get to a point where is stays at 0ms and the max latency won't get any lower. I did download first. Then I moved on to upload and I settled at 70% down 75% up and turned the speed test bypass back on and set it back to auto from always on. 

Ad blocker on although shouldn't make a difference
DumaOS 4.0.23
Im hoping the automatic congestion control figures will improve in a later firmware so there isn't as much trial and error but all in all the router is a huge improvement from my ISP provided router so far, definitely. Hopefully someone from Netduma can chime in on the Bandwidth reservation, maybe it could be laid out a bit easier for new users to activate if it is in fact a game changer. 

Thanks for this post @Spritekid242i think the Bandwidth reservation has helped a lot along with further tweaks to the congestion control, my hit detection is 100 times better since I changed it 

Yes, it works for PC as well.
I have Spectrum / Charter / Comcast
My ISP package is 950/40
I just halve it to make it easier. You basically just want to ensure that you have 0ms for both Download and Upload on the waveform bufferbloat tests. I could tweak my Upload a bit more but it works with these settings.

Thanks, I have never tried prioritizing 1-65535 tcp 
will try it! 
 
One more thing to add. If you feel behind enemy or lag/delay in hit detection. 
try reboot isp and ndm routers 
i think it helped alot!! 
 

mines are moderate … I don’t see a difference with it open 

I just changed my download and upload those settings and now my bufferbloat is A+ instead of B

I have found some workaround for smart boost not tracking packets correctly. 
 
If your network is not too congested. Just unstar all those activity, including your gaming activity. 
now you will see blank table
now if you check at ‘stats for nerd’ menu on the too right (little three dots), you should see the table. In generally, if everything is right, cod packet should be under either ‘manual prioritization’ or ‘auto allocation’  But problem is sometimes smartqos is buggy so you will need to manual do it as following
1. unstar all default activities. Make queue blank 
2. Normally add your ports by hitting ‘add reservation’ it is inside manage profile button. 
 
3. pick your console/ targeted device Hit next
4. switch to ports tab 
5. manually enter source ports and destination ports. If you dont know, just put 1-65535 in both
6 give it 20mbps reservation and click Finish. 
 
all done 
 

everyone knows cod is rig but just because you don't enjoy it doesn't mean others don't. Don't be negative bro its just a game that certain set of people still enjoy.  

This router has good and bad. I will be honest with this. 
My setting: 
AIS Fibre 1000/1000 
Location: Bangkok, Thailand. 
Server: Singapore (ping 38)
How I setup: As image below 

AIS ISP Router Connected to Netduma R3 
in AIS ISP Router I DMZed to Netduma Internal IP. So my connection won't get double NAT 
in Netduma: 
GEO Filter: Make sure to use Steady Ping. It adds ping but somehow it plays better. No instant killed 

Smartboost: I turned off 

I am being honest. it is buggy and unreliable. If you have gigabits connection. Don't use it. Now it categorizes CoD as 'unknown' packets. and it prioritize something else that can cause your hit detection to be so much delay. 
Other than that, it is good. Hardware is good and capable of handling 1000 mbps 
Upnp turn ON 
No Port Forwarding, No DMZ 
Make sure to reserve your console IP for static 
 
Important: Without QoS, it is the best to keep your connection un-touch. If possible, try to be the ONLY device in netduma. literally only one. now it is gonna be ONLY CoD packets in your entire network.
I know it sounds selfish for your family members. What I did was just buy Phone Internet Sim + Sim Router. And I let my family use the Internet from Mobile Sim. And I take the whole gigabit connections  

Yes Sir you have higher ping.
The Steady Ping add a puffer to your ping 🙂 if i read right the last posts.
Thanks for Feedback with smoother hit dection.
You can test 5 Mbit Download and 0.5 Mbit upbload 🙂
or 0.5 up and down

or

 

I have fully tested this feature on xbox /pc/ ps5, and i conclude that it in does increase ping by 5-8 ping but i can hardly notice a different in gun fights. Also MW3 hit detection seems smoother and the lobbies are not as sweaty
