That’s a great question haha: it’s very weird. lmk If it made any difference for you! I’ve done a few tests to be sure and it’s 100% the cause of having the Netduma Page open. Very very strange lol

Why are you even using express vpn when gaming.. you’re just asking yourself for even more latency & lag issues lol. if you’re playing cod, I’d look for an actual cod vpn that doesn’t increase your game ping.. 🤝😂

Absolutely! It’s so weird that having the r3 settings page opened would affect the bufferbloat test lol. but definitely keep this in mind if others are having issues getting an A/A+ on their tests! 🤝

Run this test without the R3 settings page open if it was opened when you did the test… and set both Upload and download to 85% for Co congestion control.. I found out if you have the R3 settings page opened when doing the test, it’ll give you incorrect results… I just made a list regarding this.. 🤝

Well i just found something a bit interesting with Waveform buffer bloat test.. i could never get an A+ on waveform with my full internet speeds(been trying for months), but only if i lowered them down to 200mbps, id get an A+ .. i just found out that i can get an A+ with my full 900mbps speeds if i don't have the R3 settings page opened when I'm doing a waveform test.. for some weird reason, having the R3 settings page opened when doing the test seems to give you inaccurate results.. so those who've lowered their internet speeds just to get an A+ on waveform, try doing the test without the R3 settings page opened.. but first be sure to up your speeds to your what you pay for and then close the page and then perform your test.. I've got my Upload and Download Congestion control at 85% as well.. Below are pics from before(buffer bloat test with r3 settings page opened) and after(with R3 settings page closed)... Hope this is useful for others! let me know if this worked for you guys too.. Cheers!

Try putting the modem the r3 is connected to into bridge mode and then see what happens..

Lastly, I do would like to say I appreciate you and your attempts at helping with the issues. Ik you can only do so much on your end. I truly get that. But we are over a year in and I’m not the only one who’s starting to become fed up.. things truly gotta start changing for the better with this product.. if these bugs that make you have to either factory reset or reboot daily still happen in 4-6 month then that’s highly concerning. I’ll be putting the r3 in the box until there’s a firmware that’s at least 80% stable, and I highly doubt it’ll be the next firmware update that does it. 🤝 but like i said.. I appreciate you and all of your help in the last year.. 🤝

Say it louder!! Same sh*t I’ve been saying. 🤝

Yeah, but I’ve lost all hope at this point.. not once have we had a firmware that was solid.. not even 80% solid. i highly doubt it’s “worth waiting for” lets just leave this as is. 🤝

In what? 2-3 weeks or longer. it’s all good. I’m packing the r3 back into its box, and it’s going on eBay. What a crap show… has been in the last 365+ days since owning it. And not once have I been a satisfied customer. Id file a Better business bureau complaint if I could but since you guys aren’t in the US too bad right?.. I doubt there are some out there that have 100% zero issues.. I’m sure they’ve got some sort of bugs that they aren’t aware of or aren’t complaining about it cause they aren’t fully educated on how a router works or should be working.. 😂🤝 And I put money that this next firmware update will cause more bugs and won’t fix the main issues that need fixing(it’s not the first time)

I’ve had this thing for a year now. And not once had I had a day where I didn’t have to freaking either reboot or change Ethernet ports.. Sh*t... I can’t even get my full 950mbps speeds on this thing… do you see where and why I’m getting pissed off at this point..?

But I guess complaining about issues is “gratuitous gossip”…

Isn’t that what I’m doing!? Holy… No I get that. Trust me.. it’s the fact that it’s evident that the R3 is clearly a fu*cked product and will be until we get a firmware that’s 100% solid. You can’t tell me otherwise. you know damn well how buggy the r3 is. And if you say otherwise, you and the whole team are delusional.. my point is.. it shouldn’t take 4-5 firmware updates in to get the damn thing working right without having to reboot it daily.. what if I was in a fuc*ing competition in a game for $$ and then I happen to disconnect cause of the R3… that’s bullsh*t. I paid $$ for this thing to work right, not for it to have continuous bugs update after update. You guys should’ve made sure the firmware on the R3 was solid before the damn thing was even released. You guys fuc*ed up on that one. I’ve owned many routers in the last 10-15 years.. not one has ever had the amount of issues the r3 does. next firmware won’t fix crap, and I’ll put $$ on it that it won’t. enjoy your day. 🤝

What’s untrue about my statement!? There’s plenty of evidence to back up my statement.. It’s not only this forums that I see people complain about issues.. it’s on X and on some discord groups. It’s ridiculous. This is not the point.. but go on… Yeah, we will see.. probably not for another 2 weeks.. and then more bugs will continue to happen. Not the first time. enjoy your day. 🤝

How am I over reacting when it’s clear that this thing is fuc*ked.. you can’t tell me it’s not.. this whole forum is full of nothing but complaints about bugs. ive owned many other routers in the past and none have came close to being horrible like the R3 is. they should’ve made sure the product was in 100% working order without any major bugs that causes people to having to reboot the damn thing daily, yet alone multiple times a day.. it’s ridiculous. we are how many firmware updates in and not once had been solid.!? I get they’re “hard at work” but I’ll give them credit when it’s due.. until then, the product is a piece of sh*t. I’ve had nothing but continuous issues every day since I first opened the box. I’m not over reacting one bit, I’m in every right to be pissed off the way i am.. I’m not the only one. no need for any other comment unless you’ve got a solution to my r3 issues🤝

Whole product is a clown show lol

If that’s what you think.. you truly expect people to know they’re on vacation and expect us to look though every topic..? we all want a working product with Zero issues.. that’s not happened yet once. It’s ridiculous. We’ve got a right to be pissed off and frustrated.. If you think us being pissed off on something we bought and not work right is gossip, then you’re highly mistaken..

Clearly a failed product and will ever be so.. We are over a year now Since release and not one firmware has been 100% solid. time to toss this piece of Shi* out and I’ll rely on something else that’s better and more reliable and consumer friendly and not be test subjects for your guys shi*ty product anymore. I truly hope others will soon realize and follow. new update was suppose to drop last week of December from the looks of it when chatting with the devs.. that never happened, now they’re on vacation while they know they have a poopyty ass product that’s not working right for 90% of their customers.. but obviously it’s the least of their worries.. it clear they don’t really care that we have daily issues with the R3.. this is getting absurd..

Very much classic lol. Clearly a failed product and will ever be so.. We are over a year now Since release and not one firmware has been 100% solid. time to toss this piece of Shi* out and I’ll rely on something else that’s better and more reliable and consumer friendly and not be test subjects for your guys Shi*ty product anymore. I truly hope others will soon realize and follow.

lol.. you think I’m gonna hop in all those other topics when I’m trying to focus on the topic I need help with for the last few weeks..no.. lol. Let’s use our brain.. cmon now... and would’ve been nice to be told that it would be longer than a week for the new firmware to drop when it was suppose to last week or so instead of having people wait and anticipating an update.. Jack B could’ve easily said they’d be going on Vacation when he was dming me 2 weeks ago when he sent me a beta firmware that didn’t do poopy for my disconnecting issues every damn day.... this whole team and product is a absolute mess and a pure joke at this point.. wow.

when when when.... 2 weeks now since you guys last helped me and still no update.. cmon!!

HOLY FU**!!!! CAN I PLEASE PLAY A FU**ING GAME WITHOUT MY FU**ING GAME RANDOMLY DISCONNECTING MID SESSION!! THIS IS BECOMING A FU**ING JOKE AT THIS POINT.. wtf. im sorry for my frustration but this is getting tiring at this point. Holy Fu**

I’ve not experienced this issue once… very odd

i need it... any info?!

needs to be soon... yall said this week, its already thursday..
