When you launch your cod game you will see all these data centers, if you block these then you wont get any servers from that data center this will avoid you denying every one.
In my second image i have only allowed the uk data center. (I did this by enabling geo 2 mins before i lauched call of duty game) In multiplayer when you search for game you will see that it works becasue the lobby ping when searching will not change.
top tip i can give. is make sure you enable geo filter atleast 2 mins before you launch your game. if you enable after the game is launched then it wont work right, if at all.
ive had a few of asus modem/routers while on VDSL2. it suffered really badly with random disconnections and messed up DLM. I too also messed with it changing SNR but to no avail as after a reboot the settings would be lost, and id have to do it again and that would also cause another disconnection. ive had the dslac68u and dslac88u also the dsl66u they all pretty much sucked. They were never SIN approved by openreach.
Its an app that was made on duma os 2.0.
Some features that are on there are on duma os 3.0 by default
yes there are some other things on there but was made on duma os 2.0. so not expected to work.
Good news. I will be making an updated version.

I completely agree ... I'm a huge fan of KEEP IT SIMPLE ... for most things in life but especially for IT technology ... the more "features" you throw at an operating system, the larger then the question mark is that floats above it in an array of categories - just pick one. I like to unbox a router and fire it up and then go in and disable as many "features" as I can ... then enable one by one only those things I need and of course anything that depends on them... this is why I put OpenWRT on my Netgear 6800 because I wanted to compile a router OS that only did a few things that I needed... routing of course, firewall with nat / pat, dhcp, WiFi and an ssh service ... and it ran pretty good ... but now it's doing some really fun tricks ... like when you issue a command that pulls down new versions of the modules install in the OS, it like to brick itself and go into an cycle where it just constantly reboots... and now it's doing more interesting things like dropping WiFi for a minute without so much as a whisper as to why ... it's time to to put it out to pasture. I bought it used ... cause the price was right ... but I think I learned my lesson.
I've played with a lot of Cisco hardware ... my first experience with Cisco was back when they first came out with their voip system (AVVID I believe it was called with "call manager" servers) back when the IPPBX ran on Windows ... I rather liked their methodology in their firewall switches and router designs. I was full time with the city I live in as their second hire in their IT department which was under Finance back then... I convinced them that paying for a pots line to every desk in city hall was like shoveling cash into a furnace... when I showed them the numbers to replace those phones with an in house system they said "ok ... why don't you go ahead and do that for us..." which ended up being a really fun project. I got to spec and purchase something like 1.4 million dollars of Cisco hardware ... two blade switches, 20 some odd routers with switches for all the remote sites, a $20k PIX firewall ... I was in hog heaven and I learned a lot about switching and routing just rolling that project out.
You know, in the vein of keeping things simple ... if I had, for example, one of every brand of router with DumaOS on it, I would set one up at a time and drop it over at my friends house and let him use each one for a few days at a time ... I guarantee you by the time he finished testing them all ... he would be able to tell me which one was the best one ... or which ones were the best ones ... because sometimes ... you just have to see how the damn things work in a real situation rather than quibble over the tech details which could become a conversation that has no end to it... as you well know being in the testing field ... you can zero in on way too much minutia if you don't force yourself to just stick to what matters most. And really there is no metric for answering a question like "which one is the fastest" ... because each brand and flavor implements what it does in a way that is going to be different from the other brands and flavors so you just have to use them and see which ones shine and which ones don't.
I watched a youtuber do a review of something like 5 different gaming routers last week ... his video production was pro status but in the end, he had these fancy graphs and the one he used to tell the audience which router was the fastest ... was the chert that showed the average ping response times from each router when he just set up a ping and let it run for a few minutes ... got the average delay time, then did the same test with the next router...once I picked my jaw up off the floor, I commented on his video and said that ... perhaps next time he reviews gaming routers ... he might think about actually playing some games through the routers and just see how they perform ... I then lectured him a little on how AND WHY ICMP response times are basically worthless as a metric for a routers speed capabilities ... I doubt he will read my comments with an open mind considering he seems to be quite successful as a youtube content creator whos main focus is IT stuff... the blind leading the blind seems to be a fitting analogy for what he does I think...
DumaOS being designed by gamers for gamers is awesome! What I wanna know is ... why did they stop at the software? Why not take an "Apple-esque" approach and find some good hardware then customize the hell out of their software so that it is very tightly coupled with the "personality" of that hardware... Heck if they're savvy enough, they could even write the hardware libraries ... find a really light weight linux kernel and make a router that dose one thing and does it VERY WELL ... GAMING! I would even insist that the routers don't have wifi or anything other than what is necessary to get packets across networks and also shape that traffic so that it only knows gaming traffic.I would have a flagship model that would boggle peoples minds... "Why doesn't it have WiFi? and "you mean my kinds can't do their social networking stuff through this router?" ... maybe have a dedicated hardware bridge where all non-gaming traffic just gets passed on to another port where the family router connects to ... but when its got an active gaming stream running, even that bridge gets disabled or it flows those packets with separate hardware with an extremely low priority ram based packet queue which could be configured to be shut down when an active game stream is happening... They would be for a very niche customer base.. but I guarantee you that the gaming purists out there would salivate over a router like that ... I think it would do very well actually. And it wouldn't need to look like an alien space ship either ... because the kind of people who would buy that router could care less if it existed inside a brown paper bag ... as long as it gives them the edge they want in their games ... they spend good money on stuff like that.

ipv6 works perfect with qos,
So far ipv6 works when connecting via PPPoE, Does not work when behind another router, as that router has no way of passing the right info to the r2.
I was shocked. others on the r2 beta also enquired about specs, and also no such information was on my box packaging, maybe this has changed since that feedback was given. I hope so.
I think there will be people who buy because they do have the money to throw at it. Some will think its brilliant some wont.
