The all-in-one solution necessarily has a price (and between us generally complicated to compile with a moderate price and with real effectiveness at all levels). Personally, I assume that a router is made for routing, a switch for switching, an AP for WIFI etc... If some people are ready to pay the price for a+++ router, I think they will be able to take advantage of NetdumaOS by equipping it downstream with other, more efficient hardware. And with the R3, you have the OS, wifi6 and 1Gbps... It's pretty cool. 😁

Hi ! If it's just to increase your local traffic speeds, just put a switch behind the R3. Personally I have an SFP+ switch and 2.5 Gbps Ethernet port connected between my PC and my NAS which allows me to do local network transfers at more than 500 MB/s on very large video files.

It’s great to hear it’s working for you! Rapidly repeated testing may simply cause the error. I don't know your bandwidth speeds but 70/70% is the best compromise to avoid a bottleneck as a general rule.

Mine works without problem in DHCP... Do a factory reset, also may be something upstream is blocking the ping...

Hi ! You can create a bandwidth reservation in the advanced settings of the smartboost profile! What game do you play on PC or Xbox? Have you set percentages in congestion control?

Remember to restart the devices behind the R3 too! 😁

Sorry for your delivery inconveniences...shit happens... “Steady ping” creates a buffer on the ping of the server you are playing on, precisely to avoid spikes and to keep the gameplay fluid. It does not interact with your wifi signal, but on the ping of the game server. You can deactivate it of course.

Add a ping buffer to reduce lag spikes and improve gameplay. While your ping will slightly increase, your game will feel more reliable and responsive.

@MainLifeline Hi ! From the moment you put a router downstream of your ISP router with all of your devices behind the second, the first functions as a gateway so either you manage it as a bridge or you put the second in the DMZ of the first !

Tests 192.168.77.1 😁

Wifi 5 ac and WIFI 6 ax The test was carried out with a 160Mhz ax card... But I obtain the same speeds with a 160Mhz ac card. The 2 PCs are in another room 4 meters from R3 (in very good condition to be transparent)

OK ! Have you configured your upstream ISP router with a fixed IP DHCP of R3 in the DMZ. Restart it and give it a try, you can also delete your browser cache!

WIFI 6 : 5Ghz in 160Mhz I don't know your speeds but here's how I'm doing on my 1000/700 Mbps line. (with a compatible WIFI card)

Hi, Could you connect the R3 behind your ISP router, but choose DHCP instead! They will provide an update for special characters (_) later. Once this update is complete, you will be able to bypass your ISP router with your PPPoE identifier.

If you have activated this option, it's normal to get your maximum speed! 😉

Do the test ! Otherwise if you have space on the TP plug everything into it!

ok it looks like a loop in the network, you can try enabling spanning tree protocol to see if it prevents broadcast storms! It must be active on R2 but not on R3…

Is this a manageable switch? if this is the case it is normal that it appears offline. You can also set an IP outside of the R3's DHCP lease. What do you use the m4000 for? if it has an AP mode, it would be more efficient to use it that way to extend wifi to another room in the house

@Yoda do the test with your ISP router (DMZ on R3 DHCP IP) PPPoE is really an outdated protocol for VHP, I hope the ISPs will evolve...

@Mrbchambers Hi and congratulations! Have you tried adjusting your sliders manually? Otherwise, I advise you to post in the topic for R3 support. 😀

Salut @Matvent La cause c’est le serveur de test benchmark qui n’est pas optimisé, en gros il utilise un serveur mlab qui ne permet pas d’obtenir les vitesses max comme sur ookla. Dans tout les cas, tu n’auras pas de problème d’encombrement avec tes vitesses.

Hi ! @loki I found a link that might help you configure it: https://support.purevpn.com/en_US/router/how-to-configure-purevpn-with-netduma-and-nighthawk If that doesn't work, you can try to configure it manually with an openvpn udp file that pure VPN should provide you! https://support.netduma.com/support/solutions/articles/16000087492--dumaos-optimal-settings-guide-hybrid-vpn

Here ! 😉

Hi ! With a second ethernet card on a PC or by keeping wifi access on the duma OS router if you have an ethernet card and a wifi card on your PC/mac...!

Depending on your location, not sure if you will succeed in finding very distant lobbies. Take the test again and tell us how you get on.
