Allright 1.I tried to take off steady ping had no luck finding it now after initially setting it up. Any idea where it is? 2. Is strict mode / fast search in warzone settings or duma4 os? Didnt find anything like that in warzone settings for network/interface 3. Like I mentioned in my above post I used custom and I used (set) but meant simple geofilter. Neither worked to locking onto the 47ms server they both went up to over 90 ms when they couldnt find a game. Hey fraser. 1. Only set my priority to gaming. Like my above post said. Nothing else was plugged into the duma 3 accept my PC hardwired. No phones or devices or anything were hooked up to wifi. 2. HITRON model#EN2251 And I didnt set it to anything. Just followed the directions that you guys put on your duma3 box and the netduma3 setup instructions from your youtube channel. Didnt realize there was more instructions somewhere for existing routers? I hardwired my an ethernet cable from the BLUE connection on duma 3 to my 2.5ghz connection on my ISP router. Then my PC is hardwired to the yellow #1 connection on duma 3.

WARZONE 3 OLD ROUTER while searching for game starts at 47ms, goes up to 80ms, the 90ms before it finds a game.........In game latency is 93ms NETDUMA 3 ROUTER with geofilter on and set to washington server radius while searching for game starts at 61ms, goes up to 80ms then 95ms....in game latency is 100ms The picture with the circle is my location in the middle. Im in Alberta, canada. The 40ms dot is the washington circle the best warzone server close to me. I tried the custom geofilter and the swt one and made radius bigger. Both make no difference DUMA3 is definately doing something. Increasing my latency by about 7ms and not correctly finding warzone server and staying strictly on that server Ping optimizer on. Ping stabilizer. Im hardwired directly to DUMA 3 with NOTHING else plugged in. I bought this router strictly to drop my warzone ping. Seems incapable of doing that. Anything else to try before i return this and lose close to 100 bucks on shipping and import charges?

That worked. Cheers

Over 1 hour now updating firmare. This cant be normal. I Havent touched anything during the process. What do i Do from here.

42 minutes so far updating firmware. This normal?

Shortly after I made post i Hardwired my Ethernet from Duma to PC then type im the setup addy. Updating firmware now. Its been 25+ minutes already updating firmware. It always take this long?

Duma showed up today. Unpacked it. I followed the hookup instructions. Did everything 1 step at a time. First my nternet router without anything plugged in. Once that was full booted hooked up the ethernet cable to the DUMA Then booted that up waited till full bootup. Tried to connect through wifi, My phones wifi and pc wifi can connect to the NETDUMA just has zero internet. I have this EERO mesh thing that my router usually plugs into and then my PC hardwires into that EERO mesh block. But i have that unplugged and not connected to anything at the moment. Figured that would be hooked up after to one of the numbered ports on back of duma?

Cheers Was wondering if u thought a VPN like nord worth it since I dont have 1gig fibre in my area......if anything to prevent throttling ? Or its just a waste of money on top of the duma 3?

Yeah. After a bit more consideration (tp link 11000 doesnt have any "gaming" features they just claim it does) I think I will just do the DUMA3 since their out of stock (until the 5th which is today technically) they selling for 200usd (50 bucks off) which brings my total with shipping to 320.cdn (not bad) and the only other true gaming routers worth their salt with a ton of features is the ASUS AX11000 pro thats 400.cdn on sale right now.....which has a wicked mesh system which the duma does not and is tri band not dual band like duma.......but i dunno. I never use WIFI in my house unless its phone or upstairs tv........ My gaming pc and my gaming tv are all connected to ethernet, so guess my minds made up, will give duma 3 a chance🤔🤷‍♂️

-Net duma 3 delivered to canada for me is 387 cdn -Tp link archer ax11000 is 300cdn includes shipping off of ebay Im strictly getting a gaming router to lower my warzone ping from 85ms to 25ms by setting my server to seatle which is the closest one to me. Any extra features will just be a bonus Ive never had a gaming router before. Is the 90 dollar increase for the duma 3 worth it? Thanks Mike
