hey, i cant get smooth gameplay on ea fc / Fifa The biggest Problem is matchmaking. matchmaking I´m from Germany, but always become connectet to players from UK or Netherlands. So for now i have my old Nighthawk xr500. And the geofilter did great job. For now i`m always connectet to Frankfurt with 10ms. Thats great and a huge benefit. Sometimes the geo filter shows me the server in Netherlands is allowed but then i quit the game and connect again until it is denied, so only the Frankfurt server is allowed. I think my ea Datas are saved on the netherlands server, cause without geo filter im only connectet to this server altough my ping to frankfurt is better. tried VPN - cyberghost gaming server Frankfurt - but geo Filter works better and i can see where im connectet. With VPN on xr500 and geo filter on, there is no benefit. without vpn, the ping is up to 5 ms better so i disabled VPN. so for Matchmaking geo filter works best and always (with workaround). First i had UPNP on. But gameplay was not the best. So best gameplay i have with portforwarding rules: - UDP 9000-9999 for matchmaking - results in always having the best ping games. without this rule, i often challange players with 20 ms. with rule on, always 8-12 ms ping. - 3659 (EATunnel) on thats the ports opened by UPNP. so i forwarded them. and disabled UPNP. Further when i portforwarded the ports especially for FIFA / EAFC UDP 3074, 3478-3479 TCP 3478-3480 the game feels smooth but!!!! it absolutely benefits my oponent. Its like a connection boost for my oponent. No chance for winning any matches. So i diabled them. and only play with forwarding rules like UPNP. 9000-9999 and 3659. So i have fair gameplay and can win a lot of matches with great ping and german oponents. but never have perfect gameplay. But its ok. With other Routers like my fritzbox or Tp-Link router, there is better gameplay and feels smooth, when im connectet to germany but its 1 out of 10 times so 9 out of 10 im connectet to UK or netherlands and its horrible... so i need geo filter and it worked very well. need help for qos So i Need some help to set QOS perfectly. The Nighthawk benefits my matchmaking but anything makes my connection / gameplay worse. Fpr now, the best effect i have by disable QOS. I have fibreglass 250 down, 100 up - without qos on ive great speed tests. Wafeform bufferbloat shows some bufferbloat in download under load but we never use the whole network. Changing congestion control does make it worse. But i would like to use traffic prioritation. So games console doesnt work great. because for example squad battles mode on ea fc doesnt work with games console or the menu. i would like to benefit my PS5 for traffic priorisation. My idea: choose ps5 - ports all portrange 1-655xx UDP and TCP - advanced (wired connection) + apply to WAN So that rule woult benefit all traffic from my ps5 first isnt it? thanks for your help

Hi Fraser, funktioniert das auch mit diesem hier? https://www.mediamarkt.de/de/product/_netgear-xr1000-100eus-nighthawk-wifi-6-ax5400-gaming-route-router-134038797.html

doesnt work. this is the open vpn client: client remote 87-19-de.cg-dialup.net 443 dev tun proto udp auth-user-pass resolv-retry infinite redirect-gateway def1 persist-key persist-tun nobind cipher AES-256-CBC ncp-disable auth SHA256 ping 5 ping-exit 60 ping-timer-rem explicit-exit-notify 2 script-security 2 remote-cert-tls server route-delay 5 verb 4 ca ca.crt cert client.crt key client.key

Hi Fraser, kann ich auf dem nighthawk XR 500 cyberghost vpn client installieren?

QOS is turned off how should it be? Because if I do a priorization I can’t turn off QOS

Hey, I play ea fc 25 on ps5. playing on my ont fiber modem without any router works perfectly NaT 1.But the whole family can’t use the web. Playing with the nighthawk (nat2) doesn’t feel smooth. what can I do? What’s the beste settings, to give the connection 1:1 to the ps5 with nighthawk? thanks a lot

Ok but I also can do all portrange, so all traffic will become prioritized right?

Yes, all ports. Ist this right? Default or gaming / voice? and add to wan?

Hey guys, same problem here on my xr500 nighthawk bandwith allocation only works, if prioritization is off. Do you have any idea? would like to have my PlayStation limited bandwidth and prio. which prio I should use for PlayStation all services and wired? thanks
