im almost on your route..

Texas servers keep coming up as Oklahoma servers when there aren't any actual servers in OK.. Some of the server ID's: 1M7NSLE 1M75WZG 1M75YAC 1M761TW 1C9AR9G 1M76290 1M761O4 1M75RU4

💯💯

its fine, ive given up.. like ive said, ive tried many things, spent over 30 legit hours trying to get my stuff sorted.. during my testings, ive only had my pc connected to my network and nothing changes. nothing else will fix my issue.. so im just over it at this point. I've put the R3 away(going to get rid of it) and using a different router that's performing better in the end.

fully aware.. thx

why should others need to make new topics when theyre having the same issues?

my exact issue ive been dealing with for the last two weeks.. my high bufferbloat/jitter crap came out of no where..

Yes, I’ve set mine down to 300mbps and 40up myself actually.. and the pictures I provided are with those numbers with cc on to 70/70

Congestion control just doesn’t work.. and I’ve been trying to say that.. something is wrong.. ive said this before, I’ve tried many different percentages on CC and nothing, I mean nothing works.. 50/50, 60/60, 70/70, 80/80, 90/90 and 100/100.. nothing works.. at this point I give up..

I use this combo and works well.. or does if my R3 wants to work right..

here are my resuts with PingPlotter.. I did 4 different tests.. Picture 1 is my results without the R3 connected with nothing running, just Idle. Picture 2 is my restults without the R3 connected with 3 Youtube videos running at once at 2160p(Zero Buffering at all) Picture 3 is my result with the R3 connected with nothing running, just idle. (with congestion control off) Picture 4 is my result with the R3 connected with 3 YouTube videos running at once at 2160P(had major video buffering issues) with Congestion control set to 70% with Always on. Please let me know how these look to you.. Not sure why it would cause video buffering with congestion control on set to 70%.. but doesn't with my other router..🤔 Picture 1 (No R3, Idle) Picture 2 (No R3, with 3 2160p YouTube videos playing with no buffering) Picture 3 (R3 connected, Idle) Picture 4 (R3 connected, with 3 2160P YouTube videos playing with buffering every 5-10 seconds)

I've legit tried ever freaking percentage possible.. nothing works! the first month of having this, it 100% took care of my congestion issues(bufferbloat) but starting last week, it stopped doing so... while i started having other issues too.. at this point, I'm so tired of messing with this thing every day trying to set it right.. but nothing works. im no freaking idiot either.. I need a RMA at this point i believe, or ill have to file with FCC.. I had a xfinity tech come out this morning to see if he can diagnose anything on his behalf, and nope.. everything seemed ok on his end.. not sure what else to do.. hell, I even reinstalled windows to see if a virus or some crap was possibly causing it.. but nope went and installed a 2.5g ethernet card too, didnt fix anything. I've tried everything possible.. ". The only way to ensure a good result is disable/remove any priorities, disable Speed Test Bypass and fine tune/trial/error the percentages until you get the best result" ^^ that doesnt do anything on my end...

But again.. the first month of having this, Congestion control 100% helped with my bufferbloat issues..

Like I said.. I’ve tried everything.. its bothering me cause I noticed the issue while playing games.. Last week I noticed issues which led me to check out bufferbloat and all that crap.. bo matter what value I put it on in CC, I can never get it down..

thanks for the tips.. just so confused as to why everything was great up until a week ago..

Ok, a week later I've done the following to try to eliminate my sudden bufferbloat and high active ping.. -Bought a 3rd party modem for Xfinity, I bought the Coda cable modem (https://www.amazon.com/Hitron-Approved-Comcast-Spectrum-Ethernet/dp/B0981553MT) -Bought another Gaming router with adaptive QOS( Asus RT-AX82U https://www.asus.com/us/networking-iot-servers/wifi-routers/asus-gaming-routers/rt-ax82u/) (^^ I have the R3 connected to these two as well) I've tried many different methods to get my bufferbloat down and nothing is fixing it.. when I first got the R3, everything was great and smooth.. but not anymore.. any tips?! I can only get a A or an A+ score if I lower my network speeds down to 200mbps on the duma.. I have 1200mbps Down and 40mbps Up.. its odd that the only thing that will fix it is by lowering the network speeds on the R3 Tested with QOS On and Off and zero luck Posted two pictures Below with my results.. the first month with the R3, i was able to use 800ish mbps without this issue.. any help with be great! @Netduma Fraser

this is a day after doing a factory reset (reset #10 this week)

does the cpu usage look normal while being on firmware 4.0.23? it was low for a bit when this firmware dropped, but its been getting higher..

Sounds good…

New topic has been made.. No I can’t connect to the R3, can’t see the wans settings cause I can’t get in.. Ive factory reset it and it’s been sitting connected to the modem.. and nothing..

Hence the reason why I asked for a tech over the DM I sent to the admin.. so maybe if the admin would check their dm, I’d get somewhere maybe.. just a damn thought.

Doesn’t matter, if a tech can’t fit the issues themselves, then a RMA can be done..

How many posts does one need to do in order to get a working product!? At this point, you guys need to send a new router my way.. every other day it’s something new.. My new daily issue is that my router no longer wants to connect to my Modem when it was working absolutely fine last night before bed.. I tested my backup router and no issues.. this thing is absolutely dead.. between high cpu usage after new firmware update, insane latency issues(100% not my modem, tested without anything else connected other than the R3) I get half of my listed network speeds(1000mbps, but get about 300-400 even with speed test bypass on) I can keep going with a list of issues.. what more do I need to do!? this is getting insanely frustrating for the average consumer.. sorry for the amount of frustration from my end.. but a $200 router should not act this way..

How many posts does one need to post about issues they’re having daily.. I need a rma at this point.. please direct me on how to do so.. a router should not have bugs ever single day.. this is outrageous.. and this is coming from someone who is not stupid either..

Thanks..
