We've done a test before and you said the resulkts were very good - heres a new one just done now

This is my congestion control if thats any help

Yep, everything is always connected to the R2 - except for the PS downstairs as their connection is pretty awful with it. okay i just reset the QoS distro and everything is on 9 for Up/Dwn. This is what Traffic Controller looms like - empty for some reason.

Brilliant! Would be a very thing to have

I pretty much only have my Xbox (wired to the R2 in same room) and my siblings PS5 (downstairs, 3 floors down over WiFi) connected to the R2 - are these QoS settings looking okay for this? I must note - they have complained that their games are very laggy when connected to the R2, so they have stopped used the Netduma wifi and gone back to the first vodafone router. However, they're trying R2 again today and hopefully it runs well as i want everything on the R2. Upload and downlaod QoS are both same (in image). Also, theyre connected via 2GHz for some reason - wouldnt it be better for them to be connected via 5ghz? If so, how can i get them to connect to the 5ghz. Thanks! EDIT: Since connecting back to the R2, they have said "almost unplayable" - i have seen it in action, and their games really are laggy - much more so than when connected tot he vodafone router (which is upstairs next to the R2)

Is it possible to create lists in the Geo-Filter section? sometimes I like to plau UK, other times I like to play, say, Poland servers. Having to keep drawing around specific places (using ping map to remember where the servers are, then coming back to geo-filter to draw) is a little bit tedious. Would be nice to be able to have a little list of locations i can switch to-and-form

Yep, seems that way. Going to keep it as is. Cheers Fraser

I think i have done a doo-doo somewhere... I watched a guide, and it recommended to turn off IPv6 in the DumaOS - i saved - and then after 5 minutes everything that was connected to thr R2 lost network and now wont come back online - had to switch laptop over to other router to post this. ( i have re-enabled it since and saved but no luck with getting back online - is this bad?) EDIT: Did a total unplug and replug with routers and im back up. Oops - ill just leave ipv6 ticked.

sorry, forgot to add to this: shall i keep 'always' or 'auto enable on'?

Brilliant, brilliant! That's great then. Thanks a lot!

85% download and 90% upload, these were the results. I'm happy with that, unless you think i could make it even better?

Great will do that until i can get the ping test under load spike as low as possible. Cheers!

I ran auto setup and this is what it has set it at, so basically just reduce the slider for download percentage and keep running that test until i can eliminate/reduce the ping spike?

Results

Will do it as soon as i get off this game and ill do it fresh. Over wifi or connected to ethernet? As my laptop is always wireless and never used wired. Does that mater?

I did a test for my QoS and this is what it shows. Anything I should change or do? I've looked up online and here to determine what exactly QoS does, so i'm not super sure on it, but at least i would like to have mine as good as it can be.

Will do, and you too, good sir! Thanks

Okay great. Will do this then. Thanks for all the help mate. Hopefully I will not have to pick your brain for a while haha! Cheers

Ah, right, Thank for that. I was going to do a post actually about this. If i want my friend in whatever country to host the game - do i simply just turn Filtering Mode off while we're in the lobby, or back out first and unfilter, then join? - even with my radius and that set? Or do i need to polygon around only their location? This is what i was trying to figure out. We'll be going backwrds and fourth between EU and NA when the next CoD comes out, so would like to know the right way to be able to do this. Leave everything as is, but just turn Filtering off?

My USA friend is the host of our lobby, so we can play some Warzone in NA, but we have been unable to find a match, it just constantly searching for a match and taking a very long time - it started 'Looking for match" at "20ms ping" - so im assuming even with him hosting, its somehow not allowing me to go to NA? I drew Polygon around UK and some of EU and then over his state which actually has a server - is this correct? Ive kept ping assist on 0. Trying to find out why when He hosts, it still puts us in my zone sometimes, and vice versa.

Ok - one of our friends dropped out - and weve got a random 4th on our team - and this icon poped up - not sure how to tell if its the guy on our team or not, but at least one icon has shown. EDIT: our teammate is in England, so its weird how he is not appearing but someone in seemingly France is.. Is all of this normal or is something not right happening in my Geo Filter

No we are already in an Xbox party, we stay in it always unless im backing out to do the test: In party > load game > invite mate to lobby. For some reason, people joining my game lobby doesnt seem to be pinging anything.. I'm playing Warzone with 1 person from USA, 1 London, and one Sctoland - (on pc, playstation, and xbox) so using game chat. No icons have popped for them at all

We just tried this, loaded up CoD, and each time he joined my game lobby, nothing popped up at all, however, all of these icons popped up again when i joined his Xbox Party. So when we join eachothers game lobby, there's nothing, but only when we join a party on xbox or a discord server. And still, there is no player icon showing in his state, only blocked players around USA. Also can you see the overlapping icons again in my radius, no matter how far i zoom in, im only able to click on one of them (not sure if this maters or not) -- and the icon where my beam is coming out from, i have not seen that before, is it normal?

Yup. There was nothing showing at all except for that circled server in my radius - soon as i joined the Xbox Party, not discord, all those Blocked Player, and Server icons appear.

Okay. And i tried again, but this time loads of Blocked Player Icons appeared in all different states, none of which he is from. By the time i got to zoom into one, they all disappeared. Apologies if I'm missing something. My friend is in Alabama - the state with the X on it, nothing pops up there, or has popped up there since I have had him joining. I must add - i did have a 'peer' 'allowed' - but obviously the allowed player is not showing in that location - so i deleted it - rejoined - and still no icon popped in his location. Again, sorry if im missing something.
