Hi everyone,
We have a brand new R3 firmware for you. It includes many important fixes based on the feedback we received since the launch, including addressing issues with Steady Ping and Geo-Filter 2.0 to make them more reliable. The full change log is provided at the bottom of this thread.
Over the next few days, you will be able to upgrade automatically by clicking on the 'Update Available' option in your user interface (both mobile and desktop). However, if you prefer, you can manually upgrade your R3 now using a PC or laptop by following these steps:
Download the attached upgrade file. Reboot your R3 - this is a one-off as this new firmware contains improvements to make manual upgrading smoother in the future. Go to the Netduma R3 user interface on your PC/laptop. Navigate to >Settings >Troubleshooting and then click Upload Firmware. Choose the file and then upload it. You'll need to wait a few minutes for the upload to complete.. If you upgraded to version 4.0.40 last week, we recommend upgrading to this new 4.0.41 as soon as possible. The previous firmware had a niche packet reordering bug affecting login issues for games like Fortnite. It also made Geo-Filter 2.0 less reliable. These issues are now fixed in the latest release.
R3-4.0.41.sig
What's Next?
Good news: Hybrid VPN development is complete for the R3 and is now in testing. We've redesigned the frontend for Hybrid-VPN to make it easier and clearer compared to DumaOS 3. We're excited for you to try it out! In the next few days, we'll be moving it to closed beta testing, and if all goes well, we should have it with you very soon along with fixes to make Ping Optimiser run more reliably and improved IPv6 support.
Please continue to provide us with your feedback so we can keep making your R3 experience better and better.

Thank you for using the Netduma R3.

Go back to page 1. You’ll see it on Fraser’s post.

I must say. As far as gaming is concerned, it’s performing very well. Hit detection feels on point and overall gameplay feels smooth. All and all, great update.

Thanks, I have never tried prioritizing 1-65535 tcp 
will try it! 
 
One more thing to add. If you feel behind enemy or lag/delay in hit detection. 
try reboot isp and ndm routers 
i think it helped alot!! 
 

If you go to smart boost and hit the add on the top right you’ll see a list show up. Scroll right till you can see gaming, and under that you’ll see the call of duty series 

Appreciate it. R3 is a great router and with some new firmware updates I’m sure it will perform better than any router I’ve ever owned. 

Nevermind now that I searched it I was able to add it to smart boost. I never new that was an option

1. Steady Ping on SIMPLE RECOMMENDED. GEO LATENCY ON , NO PING ASSISTS, STRICT MODE 

 
2. Go to Favourites.

3. Bandwidth Reservation

 
4.Put these ports in as you see thanks to @Chaiyoabc

5. Put speed to 50 down-50 up or 100 down-50 up
 
6.Advance ping option an put these settings 

7. check your buffer bloat on https://www.waveform.com/ . To see if you can get a A+ . Once you have A+ you should be good to go. 

8. GamePlay 
 
9. Stats for nerds should look like this while your playing 

 
10. Black Ops 6 Gameplay (pc) ( No Geo Filter) 
 

Will do, thanks for the help.

I'm on Starlink, Gen2 and I had a couple of minor speedbumps at first as well, ask Fraser to send you firmware 4.0.23, it really smoothed things out for me. Geo Latency kept throwing me out of my zone until I disabled it.
Remember, we are on satellite internet and there are just some things inherent to this system that we are not going to have any control over, but this router does help quite a bit. It just might take some finessing to get it as good as it can be for what it is. 
Some steps that I took:
Dishy has zero, and I mean zero obstructions. 
Once I got the new router, I did a complete factory reset of Starlink, then put it back into bypass mode, so everything is going to the R3 (not sure if you're Gen1 or 2 etc.)
I made sure that the cable for the dish as well as my internal network cables are isolated from any power lines etc. as well as not being intertwined with cables from other systems, such as PC's, consoles et al. 
I also made sure that my Cat6 cables (overkill for starlink) are in good working order, and did not mix-match any shielded/unshielded as well as different Cat ratings in the network. I've also kept my patch cable runs as short as possible between devices, but mostly to prevent any potential coiled cable issues.
Once I got the latest firmware installed, I rebooted Starlink, then I factory reset the R3 and went through the settings. I  disabled ipv6 in Lan/Wan since it's been very flaky where I'm at. 
I ran ping optimizer and allowed it to determine the best settings, and I'm not seeing more than a 10ms up/down during gaming until I transfer to a new satellite, I'll see a spike then but it's relatively short-lived. 
Disabled Geo Latency
I personally run an MTU of 1472, and use Cloudflare for my DNS.
In MW3, I'm averaging 50-70ms latency in Zombies, and 30-50ms latency in multiplayer. My son plays Apex, The Finals without any real hitches to speak of. 
This may all be things you already knew or did yourself, but throwing it out there in the hopes that it might help.

Sounds good. Thanks for the update

I think it will be mostly bug fixes and no major features being added so unlikely for SmartQoS
