Hi everyone,
The wait is over, we're happy to deliver the latest R3 firmware. It contains months of work from our development team, with a big focus on improving the stability and reliability of our features.
Main Changes:
Hybrid VPN is here: this is long standing Netduma feature which allows you to run your VPN through your router and then choose which devices or applications the VPN should be applied to. This means you can run your VPN on things that usually hard run a VPN on, such as Smart TVs and consoles. Hybrid VPN is compatible with OpenVPN and WireGuard, so make sure your VPN provider supports one of these protocols.
Added UPnP Relay. Previously, if your R3 was connected underneath an ISP router, you'd likely see a Double NAT reported on your games console unless you did some manual port forwarding. UPnP Relay pushes port opening requests from your devices up the chain to your ISP router, meaning you should get an open NAT with no additional configuration needed
Some users reported issues with Chromecast or Airplay, or transferring files locally. These are fully fixed now.
Many quality of life / annoying bugs fixed, including improved IPv6 and PPPoE support, increasing the reliability of the Geo-Filter ping graph and increasing the reliability of the Ping Optimiser test (with further improvements to come)
A longer changelog is below.
We want the Netduma R3 to be the best router in the world, and we're taking another step towards that goal with this firmware. We'll continue working on and releasing updates, so please give us any feedback you have.

Will it be possible to add the xDefiant game in the Geo-Filter. Can I request the team to look into it for future update atleast, If possible.. Thanks in advance
Thanks for the tip, I ordered the cat6a ones with shielding on Amazon, I had installed the cat8 cables because I also use a 10g network, but on the PS5, even though I had a low ping, I felt a small delay, I had read on some websites that it could be due to the incompatibility of the cable, thank you very much.
