Decided to make the jump from the XR500 to the R2 for the same reason I buy Pixel phones, getting updates from the source. Overall I'm pleased with the R2. I've seen people having wifi issues, and can say SO FAR I haven't had any. Setup was pretty simple, though I noticed it doesn't run a speed test like the XR500. No biggie just something I noticed.
Geo filter: for the time being until it gets ironed out I just use the ping assist with my home location set out in the ocean. I feel like this takes out guess work and works pretty well. I tried both the traditional circle and the polygon mode. Though I feel like these aren't at their full potential in the current geo filter state.
Something I don't understand is why there's at times a 30ms difference from what the router says the ping to the server is compared to in game (COD:MW).
Otherwise I like the R2 and look forward to it's features.
Any suggestions on the traffic prioritization? I can add games like Division 2 but now MW? lol very weird to me.
