Hello. So I've noticed random lag spikes in some Roblox games I play. I decided to do a bufferbloat test and it was C. Is there any settings in the optimiser or Smart Modem 2 settings that can mitigate it? It's really damn annoying. https://www.waveform.com/tools/bufferbloat?test-id=6e8900a2-4fe7-4978-be61-222b9b323d5b

now it is a mix (edit: idk if it works it did when I followed the steps again)

Nope, got lucky with two aussies twice, it doesn't work

It appears to work now, as my first server was Australian. I'll reply if it doesn't work next time

Ditto, but while loading the server

Shows this while matchmaking still

This is what shows when the matchmaking service is broken, I'll get ingame rq (EDIT): The service reconnected, I'll see if it fixed my issue

Oh dear.

So I did all that, and it still connects me to non-australian servers, however it blocked a lot more people than last time. Now I don't know if Valve is deliberately bypassing the filter or what, but it's pretty weird. One thing worth mentioning is that it blocks players while it isn't even searching for servers or way before it says 'join match'. -Heath

Allows people out of range too

Here is a screenshot I snagged

Hello. Whenever I use Geofilter and join Mann Vs Machine in TF2, the filter shows players being filtered. However, no server icon shows up, and I usually get connected to completely different servers despite Sydney being within my filter. My circle is 1800km and my filter is STEAMDATAGRAMRELAY. I use a Telstra Smart Modem 2nd Gen.

Will do, thanks.

After disabling, I get very similar results to 100% in upload ping

I set it to intervals, and the ping got worse the closer to 50% it got this is it at 50% upload and surprisingly at 100% it had tamed down a little bit as you can see not sure what's happening, help would be appreciated -Heath

I had it set to 81%, as that's what my download was optimised to. Setting it to 70% ruined it more

Hey. I've optimised my download ping, and it's only 15-20ish, and my idle ping. However, my upload ping is stupidly high whenever I go to Ookla Speedtest. I'm talking 300ms+. Is there a way to automatically congestion control my upload ping? Is there a certain percent that fixes this? What do I do? -Heath
