As in typically even in GPU for Pc most people don’t upgrade every gen unless massive improvements for example 20-30 series had biggest improvement and 30-40 and 50-60 series raw performance isn’t a lot more . obviously time between the router models are longer as we see when the Duma R3 was released vs R2. So when we have a R4 released if the improvement is 10% vs R3 most people wouldn’t see a point to upgrade for whereas if the improvement is a lot higher around 40% or more many people will purchase due to the price to performance also despite being more expensive than. A R3 Hope it makes sense

I believe adding a NPU would bring the biggest performance for the cost vs making any other hardware changes , other things I listed are probably overkill . but it would be worth testing a NPU also unless the next upcoming Model that is released provides a lot more improvement , most people wouldn’t upgrade from a R3 to R4

Yes that’s true but a CPU has cycles to inspect and forward packets etc a NPU has parallel pipelines to process in nano seconds vs microseconds preventing spikes when loaded , also provides advanced security with barely any latency compared to a CPU . if added it will be beneficial but if you guys can’t it’s fine I’m only listing what I thjnk can have a big enough difference

Increased Ram higher speed , quad core higher speed CPU , FPGA based packet processing , Neural processing unit , predictive congestion control , Geo filter improvements that you don’t connect to any servers outside of a ping range etc as it doesn’t totally work despite denying all servers in a region , DNS unbound , Adblock , Latenxy aware routing an hardware acceleration

I believed ive fixed the issue using a raspberry pi 5 running sqm shaping traffic on ingress and egress between my duma R3 and ONT.Before and after

So I have done that but for download my max spikes to 270ms etc potentially shows too much bandwidth is allocated on download but I have lowered it from 90% to 51% in increments of 5 even by 2 still getting these high spikes compared to unloaded baseline. I can’t seem to figure out the issue

ive done this but makes no sense with my results , i used the auto optimiser for a baseline , ive lowered to 51% for download but the max ping on download still is 249 ms . When can we expect the new update with ACC to be rolled out?

What QOS does the R3 use ?

Nope I used to have manual port forwarding but I deleted them as I use UPNP, thanks for that I will try and let you know how it goes. Also when I perform bufferbloat test I have huge spikes on download max ping I can attach picture below . Do you know what can cause this ?

I haven’t changed anything physically and I changed some settings MTU and lowered Transmit and receive buffers to 256 on mu network adapter on my PC but I reverted them back to original settings and still had same issue.

Correct so ONT doesn’t provide WiFi . I can’t connect PC directly to ONT so can’t test that unfortunately.

So I have my ONT directly connected to my DumaR3 WAN . Not sure if it’s Open NAT

Yes so sometimes the game loads I can play , other times I load disconnects me and I have to keep restarting . Also with geo filter why does servers I deny keep connecting ? For example I have all servers outside of London on deny and it still connects to Paris servers

Disabling Geo filter works intermittently

So I’ve connected PC to AP and this works fine but LAN doesn’t work for some reason. Not sure why

Been happening every day for last couple months now , how do I reset the geo filter ?

Battlenet disconnects and also shows not signed into profile every time when loading COD what can be the cause ?

When can we expect the ping optimiser to be running again ?

Ive tested multiple times cant achieve same results as before using the simple ping optimiser , used to get around 2-3ms down and up after being optimised , the congestion control the lowest ive got on Bufferbloat test is A and my download is 15ms when loaded.

What % of my speeds would you recommend for upload and download and for congestion control mode should I leave as auto?

Also having same issue ping can be low as 4ms and then spikes to around 40, running full fibre 1 gig up and down , speeds have been entered I use smart boost etc , when optimiser was working me ping used to very consistent in the 5ms.

for example if i block all servers outside london it still will connect me to them not sure why

Im currently on v4.0.540

Issue with multiple things ping optimiser , steady ping not working etc if im in a game it will stabilise intermittingly so i get big ping spikes , wont block certain servers that i have denied and when i logon to my router nothing loads most the time
