DARKNESS

@KyleI was able to get a ping on mobile phone though only when on a game so I do believe it only when your in the game you'll get a ping on the map it doesn't work for general browsing as that would inherently affect your performance so there can be a possibility of some games not working

@KyleI think it be a lot easier if you can send a short clip of both you booting to the game and looking at the geo map side by side and one once your in a match

@KyleIt only going to show up if your on a match or boot game and some servers should appear temporarily

@agent47isn1That one of the biggest issues is when they make two models of the same unit however they aren't actually the same in code which complicates things and that were you see some of the reasoning for updates being delayed...it really a waste of resources when one unit isn't actually the same but is classified as if it the same on netgears page Such as the XR1000 which don't run the exact same hardware I believe it a somewhat downgrade on the V2 model I forget the specifics but it really negligible but still something to point out...If i remember correctly the v2 came out because they were lows on resources to make the V1 model etc

@HoodedMenaceDid you check your bufferbloat and tweaked your cc settings?

@XûrWell there should be a beta coming eventually which should allow to test if they’re bugs before the official release…So I’d say it best to test it so that everyone that gets the official firmware runs a stable version etc since it clearly takes a while for them to patch and couldn’t say if they’ll be future patches. Just from the looks of things just my personal view I am not affiliated with anyone I just give feedback upon the products.

@XdrqgolThey will and it should be way better with new dpi

@XûrThat should be all fixed with upcoming patch and should be getting hybrid vpn that am aware which is a feature that's only missing on the XR1000 ironically....I have been testing the new dpi with my R2 and running it behind the XR1000 and it pretty much night and day difference when it comes to getting the right priority of course that because of the addition of a newer dpi engine that cloud based which should be getting added to all XR models once they all get 3.3. Furthermore I have been adding plenty of games so unless your playing a game not many people play you would have to send data for them to add it etc ...I personally don't play destiny so couldn't say much on that game and that just do to the grind potato system+paid to win but as for cod it has been a much better experience

@XûrSmell placebo all they’ve done with the latest firmwares is fix bugs…using an older one you just get inferior experience do to more bugs and you have higher vulnerabilities on the router to be exploited if it gets exploited 🙄 Though u do u bud just giving my two cents

@Netduma FraserCan you update the site to the link for the newer version of the security patch

@BrunoThe latest one is the link below though that just a security update not netduma update and that for the XR1000 V1 the V2 has no changes as of currently on firmware https://kb.netgear.com/000065541/XR1000-Firmware-Version-1-0-0-68

@D3mon1cIn short it anything to do with like calls/meetings in online networking I know I am not being specific as to the apps since I am too lazy to go into my XR to pull the list but some are Skype Zoom Google Meet I believe there's face time though I forget so I am not sure though I know it supported now on the R2 with lastest DPI which should be passed on the next update

@FuzyThat ain't saving your router bud 😂 I would guess maybe from a couple of packets but most users just full on assault you knowing they're frying there own network since there basement dwellers

@johnnytranAs stated before people use it do to how rigged the system is if your a youtuber on the top your on a whitelist given bots lobbies this is how you typically see them go on streaks when in reality they would be getting stomped you could argue they're cheating as well do to that known fact that activision will deny but when documents get leaked it what everyone already knew....As for ddos attacks that is still extremely common you just have to meet the old booty loser in a lobby with his mouse and keyboard plus a cronus zen on console to already know there cheating and will cry if you shit on them without any cheats 😂 Also a dynamic IP doesn't protect you it only a temporary measure and not everyone has the ability to have dynamic IP do to ISP restrictions and becomes more a hassle when you get to talk to some indian dude/female that doesn't know crap about anything

@KylePersonally for me it wasn't too accurate so it best to just add your device under traffic prioritization in order to take full advantage of priority if it a gaming console you just classify it as a games console and it should pretty much prioritize all traffic when gaming...the reason I say this is because from my experience dumaos classified wouldn't detect the games console from time to time and so that meant it wasn't getting priority and so making the rule forced it to be prioritized. Though on next update I believe they should be pushing the same cloud update as on the R2 which I have been beta testing and it way better at detecting games more efficiently though it requires feedback since it still not perfect and I've been adding games and pending to test them as they keep making changes too it...so on next update you should be getting near perfect traffic detection

@KyleAnother thing when testing your connection benchmark to see the results you need to apply always on the cc you can change this after by having it on auto enable if you prefer to only use it when it detects your gaming traffic and just want to use full speeds when your not gaming.

Bet you live right next to the data center underneath them to get that 2 ping 😂

@johnnytranMate you should make research as to what a vpn is and why it exist in the first place if you like being gang banged/ddos by the government or anyone in the internet then your welcome to be so....the people who use certain vpns are of course abusing the engine the same way those corporations are using schemes to make you play the game everyday and either enjoy the game or hate the game depending on your skill level if your a casual you get bot lobbies and if your a sweat you get sweat lobbies. To add they getting rid of the vpn function wouldn't do a thing since you can still use a vpn by lan through a pc which actually works better since on the router your limited to 20mbs do to hardware limitations. Oh and let me add most of the players you talk about are on PC already using cheats so it just like adding cherry on top of the cake 😂 VPNs will coexist till the end of time and as the future becomes more dangerous you'll definitely need one

@Netduma Alex Application name: Realm Royale Device type used for capture: MAC OS/PS5 Any other comments: Not detected I've reported this previously repeating it again with additional captures REALM ROYALE SOLOS #1.2.pcapng REALM ROYALE SOLOS #2.pcapng REALM ROYALE TRIOS #2.1.pcapng

@ResistShould be right under wireless setup called smart connect disable it if it enabled

@ResistTry then and see if that works you can all double check on mac the channel your connected to by holding options and then clicking your wifi bar

@ResistShould be right under settings you should see wifi and should see an option called mirroring disable it and name your networks....I know I ain't master chief to all answer my friend as for there are bugs in any system Regardless it might be the fact that the device is being confused by the channels and to simplify it it easier to force it to connect to one channel instead of it picking whichever channel it believes is more efficient

@ResistJust wondering are the channels separated? If not turn off mirroring and try then

@ExiaTo clarify you need to know were the servers are located for the games your playing since if you set it in a particular area you might not always get the most efficient servers so it best to know were the low ping servers are etc

@ExiaThey both do the same thing it just more precise to use polygon mode and if you try to lock in into a location far away from your local area it obviously going to take ages to find a match or never connect either do to ISP or servers unavailable/SBMM
