Not exactly on the fritz, if it can't ping the server then it can't know what additional ping to apply. It also won't work 100% of the time generally just due to compatibility

I have been using this R3 router for the past two months, and as you can see in the video attached, I never get the ping stabilizer window screen. It always says "Couldn't ping server," and this is the case with all the servers I am connected to when I play. What can I do to get this working? Are there any settings in the Edge browser preventing it?
i am playing on PC using game pass,my router is hard-wired to my system
today I changed my PC type to console in the device manager that  also it didn't fix anything
any help would be highly appreciated

i 2nd this  motion,
 
the ATL server is by far the worse server on MW3 in the terms of  lag.  it feels like im 4 secs behind  everyone as a NY'er.  just a  completely unfun experience.  to date its the only server i ever had to block within the 50 states. 

Get off the Atlanta server it’s the worst. I live 4 hours from Atlanta and block that server as it’s horrible with lag. Not sure why as I also get 6-8ms ping but have horrible hit detection and lag almost every game. I mainly play on the Dallas, Ohio area servers and have much better gameplay at 20-25ms ping 🤷‍♂️
Try other servers and see what you get. 

this helped me out alot.  thanks man 

just wanted to add to this post. i have an R2 but i am in the Netduma RF2 Early access Forum where i have basically the beta version of duma os 4 ( not completey duma os 4 just have smartqos/favorites and stats for nerd. i have 500/500 fiber, i port forwarded my ports, use 1.1.1.1 in my router and 8.8.8.8 in my ps5 ( i do this cause for some weird reason i get better ping to 8.8.8.8. with 1.1.1.1 in my router dns setting than if i used 8.8.8.8..), ps5 ip static and upnp off. so the only setting i used was the bandwith allocation on the ports he shared and the hitreg has been amzing and on various pings to. im on a ps5 vs pc kids in rank on 20,44,70,88 ping and its been consistently great. 

nope. i got this router for its intended  purpose.  to  not  be forced to play Cold war   with 50+ ping when my  local  server is right there with 15-25 ping.
 
its just crazy how much people really got this router just to get  bot  lobbies.

Great to hear it is working, we haven't had a chance yet to test the game specifically so most likely we need to add some servers to the whitelist. Check the Geo map when you get a crash for something blocked and add it to the allow list, keep doing that until the crashes stop and you should be good to go. If you could give us the IDs for those servers as well that would help a lot!

to test hit detection, i went to ranked since ranked in CW/VG/MW2  always gave me a  different  hit detection experience than the  main game.
i can say that the game  for the first time in a while in ranked feels like I'm actually  hurting people can can  fight back.  before it felt like  i would mag dump people and end up dead somehow, but for the past 2 days , i been  drilling people. even pulling out kills and 2 pieces i wouldn't have been able to do this time last week.
 
i will keep testing this, moreso since im going to my GFs place for a few weeks and see if this holds up. 
 
one thing i  did after the factory reset and what not was  go and remove all the other  network things ( where it puts gaming, work at home and etc)  that wasnt  named gaming.

As mentioned above, it's not the intended purpose of DumaOS and it's not something we've tested. Unfortunately you're not going to find the answer you're looking for on our forum.
We'd suggest setting a radius in Geo-filter around your local country and ensure you're always getting connected to the lowest ping servers possible, that's how you'll get the best performance in game. Check out this guide for a detailed setup for Geo-filter:

Most of us bought this router before stupid peoples on le internetz went around chatting BS about it helping you get better lobbies.
Most of us bought this router before SBMM and reverse boosting were even a thing.

You can't be serious 😂 my reaction reading your thread title 🤣🤣🤣 get better at the game or play another game!

- PC
- Geo ON
-  Ping assist at  20
- My GPS location set in the middle of the  Atlantic.  
- 70/70 (75 ish DL/UP each)
- Always
- DMZ'd my PC to my netduma, (DMZ'd my  net duma to my actual router) 
- duma classiflied games 
- WIRED (cant stress this enough)
 
this gets me great  hit dectection on my pc (as possible).  there are some games where  i know im shooting people but they still melt me  but  i take when that  happens as them just being  laggy as hell.

I personally just stopped playing these kinds of games, and so should anyone else who really wants to bring good old cod back. Maybe when they realize SBMM isnt the way and we want a quality game, they might care more,

Cold war and SBMM games are just shit, end of story really. Doesnt matter what you do, only answer is to join bot players or reverse boost.

im 2nd on the   " you guys are expecting the world" from this router    thing.   i had mine for like  4 weeks and i will say that i am very happy with my purchase.  the router promises to get  good ping lobbies which it does. my time with this router i went from 80 ping games to 20-25 which has made this game ALOT MORE ENJOYABLE.  
 
what some of you guys are expecting is too much, you want to laser people, win all your fights and get bot games..... bruh. the router cant help yall  if yu have no gunskill,  thats on YOU to actually get better.  but alot of people will blame everyone but themsleves in that area....   one thing i will say,  cold war hit detection us naturally shitty and you need to deal with it. everyone is.
