Hope you curiousity hasn been satified then..... lol & if not try using the search 😉

This topic has been covered a fair bit in this forum and tends to ruffle feathers. You do not vpn to another country, you use the vpn on port 3074 & 443 to make the game think your geo location is in that country of choice and you connect to local servers. My KD is pretty bad so its very hit and miss but on the most part the lobbies feel more fair. If you find out let me know 😂 Use the search function, there's loads of info on improving your game experience......... type in SBMM

You only VPN Port 3074 & 443 on console.

If your ping sky rockets you are using the VPN wrong. I use a VPN but it is a bit hit & miss and if your kd is low you are better off not using one.

This is a great thread that has been buried and it deserves a BUMP....... I still use the values suggested to prioritize ports for Call of Duty, I was just wondering if anyone has found any other ports/tweaks that improve gameplay? I've played around with lowering band width to my Series X .5 up 5 down and also altering MTU but not really noticed much of a difference. Thanks

That's a good question Fraser, Yes my son plays on a xboxone but I've never really monitored if this happens when he's online. This is something I have only recently noticed happening but it would explain why my gaming experience is so hit and miss. I've just gone into his settings and manually set his alternative port and i will see if this helps. Thanks

Hey Deasha my series X is doing this as well I'm on R2 & XR500..... Most the time it uses 3074 but when it decides to go to an alternative port 50xxx to 56xxx it noticeable affects game play. I was wondering if i could create a traffic prioritisation rule in QOS and if so how would it look?

Sad really that these things need to be put in place just to get an enjoyable experience.

I choose locations where the time is early morning 3am but don't expect bot lobbies, them days have gone.... Some locations do seem to provide better results than others though.

Yeah, that's pretty much what is do.... VPN ports 3074, 443 and geo fence the lowest ping servers. Some people say they have a better experience geo fencing servers with a higher ping due to LCE but I haven't experienced this.

You have the wrong ports VPN'd..... 443 TCP & 3074 UDP is all you need as Netduma Fraser has already mentioned. In my honest opinion you are wasting your time and money. Edit: After reading my comment it sounded harsh 🤣 You will get the odd bot lobby but you will also get sweatie lobbies. It really is hit and miss, well it is for me anyway. It's just not worth the hassle, if you are going to do it just use a standard VPN service that supplies .cfg files.

Thanks Liam. 😉

Please could i be considered for Beta testing? I need to refresh the os so it would be a good time to test. Thanks

No i havent, i will DM you now thankyou 👍

Thanks philo, I will..... Bit of a steep learning curve and trying to make sense of it all. I have no idea if nolag VPN is actually doing its thing all I know is its taken me 2 days to get to this point and my NAT type seems to be open 👍 I've not even played a game yet 😂

I'm a total newbie at this and have just managed to set up nolag in hybrid for my series X. When using geo filter where should I set the location to? Do I set it to the same area that my nolag VPN is set to or do I set it to where I'm located? Thanks
