It shouldnt be causing you any issues because it not being put in high priority.. When do you notice this Unknown activity popin up? You can go into Stats for Nerds in Smart Boost to see more about this type of activity.. There will be IP addresses and ports this type of Unknown activity is using.. What ports are you seeing? A screenshot of this would help in this. I will attach an example of what you will see.. This is just an example! Thanks! Zippy.

Something to try if you want as a test.. Factory reset from the reset button on the back of the router.. Hold for at least twenty seconds. During the initial setup leave IPV6 on both LAN and WAN enabled. Go through the setup wizard like you normally would.. But dont Optimize your ping.. Skip that part.. See if that happens to bring your speeds back.. If you try this report back your results. Thanks! Zippy.

I have Spectrum as well.. You went through the setup wizard and have a connection? Could you explain more by what you mean you have no readings? Currently if you have IPV6 enabled you might want to try and disable that as IPV6 might be the cause. Thanks! Zippy.

Hello @Jumppy_15 Does your ping stabilize in Simple Mode at all? Also if your average ping normally was 30ms then its likely to rise to about 38ms-40ms.. In Simple Mode.. That is if your ping stays fairly stable.. Imo I feel Expert Mode would be better to use if one has a connection where there connection requires a higher ping thresh hold to buffer the ping spikes.. I currently use Simple Mode just because it feels good and seems to be more automatic for me.. It stabilizes my ping fairly nicely.. Zippy.

Hey @IAmNoOne1989 I have a question.. When or if you disabled IPV6 on LAN and WAN did you do that during the initial setup or was that done after the initial setup in the UI? Thanks! Zippy.

Hello @artful40 That is something being looked into.. So they are aware of this issue.. You should still be able to use port forwarding as it is still functional/working.. Its just not showing active.. Thanks! Zippy.

So what you are wondering is why do the percentages not match to your actual speeds when doing the test with CC on and test bypass off? Im actually testing mine now to see how close they are to the actual percentages once lowered.. Thanks! Zippy.

I will tag @Netduma Fraser Here for you to help you further.. He will be back soon after the holidays.. I feel you should be getting better speeds.. Fraser will ask you more questions to help understand more.. Thanks! Zippy.

No worries once you get the hang of NetdumaOS its like riding a bike.. There are a few videos of the R3 on YouTube.. Also look for LowPingKing on YouTube.. He has done a setup Video as well.. Some of those Videos should give you a better idea on how some of this works.. Check those out! I will share a screenshot of my Home page of the R3 once you log into your R3 you should see something very similar.. This Home page will at least tell me what your setup is thus far.. Also CC stands for Congestion Control.. Basically this tool is what throttles your speeds in order to maintain a smooth operating system.. In my screenshot you will see Network Speeds.. And Ping Optimizer.. That should give me a better idea what you have.. Take your time and check out those videos on YouTube.. And post back how things are going for you! We are here to help! Since your new to Netduma.. Welcome aboard! Thanks! Zippy.

No worries! Once the Holidays are over and the Netduma team gets back from the holidays they will have a look at this issue.. See what might be the cause.. Have a Happy New Year! Thanks! Zippy.

Something to try.. If your Xbox at anytime had used port 3074 and then has switched to an alternate port because your sons PC has taken port 3074 then I would suggest to fully power cycle your Xbox.. Hold the power button until the Xbox fully powers down.. Then pull the plug on the Xbox and press the power button a few time to clear any power left at all.. Sometimes the Xbox does caches things like this.. Plug the Xbox back in.. Try this once and let us know how you get on! One last question is has your Xbox at anytime shown where it was stabilizing? Thanks! Zippy.

Hello @uniiiiiq What do you have your CC set at atm? What speeds were detected when first setting up your router? What is the R3 WAN plugged into ? If need be take a screenshot of your CC settings and post here.. Should help to see whats going on and to help further assisting you. Also your initial speeds that were detected when first doing your setup with the R3 lets see what you had there.. Then we can go from there.. Thanks! Zippy.

I do believe that this IPV6 bug has been noted.. So they are aware of this issue with CC and IPV6.. So it on there list of things to look into! Happy New Year everyone! Thanks! Zippy.

Boom!!! now thats what im talking about! Well said mohands! I agree DumaOS is the dominate force.. There is no other out there like Netduma! Netduma is the superior OS. Thats why I love these guys so much! They bring what most call a dream to life! Zippy.

@Skept1c Could you please post a screenshot of your Geo page so we can see what you mean..? This usually helps for troubleshooting.. Thanks! Zippy.

Hello @mindlash One thing to double check is make sure you have IPV6 disabled on LAN and WAN.. Then test again to see if your still getting your full speeds.. See if CC works and post back if your still having issues.. Thanks! Zippy.

@Zagi87, Do you happen to have any servers blocked? Also try it with Geo latency off to see if that helps if you havent tried that yet. Thanks! Zippy.

Hey @spoofy, Make sure you have IPV6 disabled as well.. Check and make sure that you have that fully disabled on LAN and WAN.. My R3 is throttling using Waveform.. Ping Optimizer is currently not working.. If you follow the screenshots of what @Fuzy posted that should get you in the right direction.. Manually adjust the sliders until you achieve the best results.. If you are further having issues post back for further assistance.. @Netduma Fraser and the staff are away for the holidays but Fraser checks in every so often.. Thanks! Zippy.

Hello @lucakusej Sorry to hear your having this issue.. Netduma support is currently away for the Holidays but periodically @Netduma Fraser will check in off and on to try and assist people.. So have you made it through the setup wizard? Since you just got your router Fraser may need to give you an updated firmware.. He will be able to give you better instructions to further assist you.. Hang in there and they will try and get you up and running asap.. Happy Holidays.. Zippy.

That is strange it wont ping the Spanish server.. Glad it stabilizes all connections to all servers though.. 👍Thats the main thing.. Fraser will give you better help with this though.. Thanks! Zippy.

Hello @Chr Do you happen to have Geo Latency Enabled? If you do try to disable that and see if that helps! @Netduma Fraser will be back tomorrow to further assist you if your still having issues.. Thanks! Zippy.

Hello @Bueyako1 Ive also had this happen to me before but usually a reboot of the R3 cleared it up for me.. If you have tried the above already and still having issues Fraser will be back tomorrow to further assist you.. Just hang in there my friend. Thanks! Zippy.

Hello @Sentinel82 Thats good to hear! Thanks for the update! Enjoy your R3 Zippy..

Hello @Goodwinn20 If @Netduma Fraser doesnt respond to your PM make sure to come back here and try the forum.. Its always better to post on the support forum to get a quicker response.. Thanks! Zippy.

Hello @Freshjive I do believe that this is a known issue.. @Netduma Fraser will be back tomorrow to further assist you and can give you some guidance.. If you go into the advance tab of Ping Optimizer you can set your CC there manually for the mean time.. 70% for up and down seem to be a good starting point.. This would be a good work around until Fraser responds for you.. Are you able to get into the Advance Tab of Ping Optimizer? Thanks! Zippy.
