I've noticed that BF6 seems to want to force me into other servers. When I can confirm that I'm connected to Auburn VA (I'm in MA) the game is much better - but lately it's been connecting to San Jose and other servers, with pings over 100 at times. 
It has been showing Dublin a lot, which I understand is authentication only - but there are times where it gets a ping from Dublin at 110 or soemthing, and then steady ping tries to bump up my ping to high 80s and it makes for a bad time.
I realize what you guys have been trying to accomplish, and that's why I ended up getting the R3... But with VPNs ruining any type of geofencing and a lot of games giving a lot of "help" to high ping players, I think it really comes down to the fact that we need game devs to do a better job with connection management.
I WISH I had netduma back in the Halo 2/3 days!

The advantage is that the EA Games selection is likely to become outdated, by doing that workaround and adding your PC as a console to the Geo-Filter it won't get outdated and allow you to filter properly (barring any cloud changes that are needed). Good to hear about Oklahoma! Couldn't say for certain but it does seem in some games that they prefer speed of getting into a game over connection quality, not all games are like that though. It was actually dealing with lag in Halo that inspired the Geo-Filter/company in the first place!

I don't believe the cloud has reached full rollout yet so once that's done you should notice an improvement

Took some doing to get the firmware to actually update but it finally did! 

I think the trick is to "Reboot" the router from the settings page, and then IMMEDIATELY after it's back online, upload the new firmware. I was hard rebooting, return to default settings, etc. but that was what finally worked. 
I have to say, I think I'm seeing quite a nice improvement. BF2042 hit registration seems a little more crispy and I'm seeing fewer "server issues" symbols pop up in game. So far that's the only game I've tried, but it does seem better overall.
