Yeah, good call. As someone that deals with agreements being a network engineer for a living, this could be considered full blown tampering. We're lucky COD, OW, BF and others haven't pulled a halo infinite and removed the ability to geo-filter all together. Just some food for thought.

I had a Unified Dream Machine Pro and they released a firmware that causes me to drop literally every other packet. Now I switched over to my R2 and use my ISP's Eero Pro 6 and Eero 6 Routers in AP mode. One in the back of house, one in front, they work beautifully and give me plenty of wi-fi coverage and the R2 handles my fiber line very well for the upstream bloat i needed to correct. I'll never us a UDM or Ubiquiti device ever again.

I'd truly be interested to see which providers actually see the tagging. Early research shows that any provider using Docsis 3.1 will see the qos tags and put that specific traffic into a higher priority queue. I know spectrum coax internet using a docsis 3.1 supports the qos tagging on their end so you will get put into less congested queues for gaming. Not sure if fiber modems will see it yet, I'll have to do some testing and get with the engineering team for my local fiber provider.

So with the anti-bufferbloat enable does the qos tagging help with this?

So when can we expect the next version of DumaOS? I have some interesting idea's regarding the Geo-Filter and some things i've noticed when using it combined with the FIFO Traffic Prio.

Well unfortunately this modem isn't available in my area, so i'm gonna pull the trigger on the Arris SB8200. The MB8200 seems to be out of stock and the price on it is ridiculous for just getting aqm inside the modem. Once i receive the Arris I'll let you know what I see results wise.

I definitely will, my upload is amazing and has pretty minimal bloat once curbed with qos. The downstream is just crazy due to the noise or weaker signal. I had adsl back in Texas with at&t and that was a AMAZING latency plan. I was on fast path and consistently got 10ms idle like I do here but every game server I played on minus overwatch was like 8 to 12ms due to server location. I'm going to be looking into centurylink if I can't fix the latency issue with spectrum. Gonna look into doing a powered splitter coming out of the wall to increase the signal for the downstream. I'll post my current results and after results once I get the new modem in. Do you know anything about their AQM or auto queue management they talk about? Would that interfere at all with the duma qos? Thanks again brother 🥃

My bad on not seeing this yet, been on vacation lol. The main reason I wanted to get it is that the 3.1 modem spectrum gave me still has ping spikes which I'm not cool with. I ran a ping in the command interface and noticed spikes of 20-30ms with no one online. To triple check I did this test just from the modem and low and behold, same thing. It's even more apparent when I saturate my connection even with the duma qos going. At this point buying my own modem seems to be the best call, especially since I'll be able to check signal levels at that point. They keep telling me "you're getting your full download speed and then some so just be happy." I'm not going away jusy because they claim it's good, the first non 3.1 modem I had show negative 7dbm on some of the downstream which I'm sure is the cause besides their terrible firmware as you said. Thanks for all the info, gonna pull the trigger tonight 😁

So i was looking around because Spectrum's in house locked down 3.1 modem seems to get some occasional ping spikes and really doesn't do well with downstream bloat. Ran into this guy and was curious if anyone knew about the AQM they're using inside the modem. Here's a link to the modem, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0723599RQ

True, I noticed last night there was a server or 2 mislocated for me via ping heatmap and geo filter. When setting my polygon over my state for COD MW in Wyoming, after seeing a server here on heatmap, it did not show up in geofilter at all. I'll have to get the ID and share it with you. As far as using ping heatmap, it wouldn't be useful due to the games I was playing are currently not on heatmap lol. Thus it would be awesome to constantly ping the game servers in geo.

So this isn't a ping heatmap suggestion but it's about the geo-filter. Would there be any way to have to servers that are ping'd during the startup of a game stay up? It would make things A LOT easier to go through and decipher which servers are good and which are bunko for us. Just a thought, cheers.

Also could we get Overwatch added to the ping heatmap? It would be pretty rad to check out what all they have for servers. Also Doom Eternal would be another good one. Thanks!

Gears Of War 5, Halo 5, Battlefield 5, Rocket League. Halo 5 may use the same servers as MCC but I could be wrong on that, gonna look into it personally by just doing a spectate mode and comparing with heat map while doing a side by side on windows using the snapshot feature. Thanks!

I wasn't angling for front of the line, was just saying people should be patient for free stuff. Especially when the current firmware works pretty damn well if you take the time to tweak it out.

Holy crap it's been a hot minute since i've been on this forum! Anyways, I'm really excited to test out this new firmware and I'm gonna try to be on here more often especially with my home internet being.... less than desirable. I run on a ADSL2+ line of 16D/1U and let me tell you... trying to keep bandwidth flowing for a few users is uhh.... frustrating lol. DUMA was the first router that really helped share bandwidth without letting a single device hog it, one of the more frustrating sides to something like OpenWRT. Especially applications like Battle dot net and steam (looking at you multiple connection frames 😑) even after doing some serious tweaking it never seemed to run just how i wanted. I ended up using my Netgear X4S as a fancy AP and plugging back up the DUMA, especially after hearing about 3.0 and all the fancy stuff heading our way. This isn't some fluff paid advertisement nor am i sponsored by them, i just know good software when i see it. To the Netduma team, Thank you all for your hard work and continued patience with your user base especially when we get a little frazzled. You guys have kept cool heads when you've easily had the right to lose it on a few folks, that is stellar customer service right there. I hope you and your families are happy and healthy on the other side of the pond, cheers fella's!
