ACExRAPTORx Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Hi i got the r1 and set up as stated on the instructions however the problems i am having is that although i have an open nat and everything seems fine it is like the geo filter is not working. first my location is in USA not UK, EVERY member that was in party on the one occasion i managed to get in were in wrong locations and when i disable the geo filter, turn off strict and everything else and put distance and ping assist both to max it still blocks like it never shuts off. in short its like the enable/disable has 0 affect on anything. even after turning off all the above i am unable to join party or games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PharmDawgg Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 First things first what firmware are you running. It should be listed cared at the bottom of you host filtering page. Current one is 1.03.5m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACExRAPTORx Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 for now . also is it normal for it to take up to 10 minutes for servers/players to disappear after i leave the server/exit game? sometimes there is one that NEVER disappears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACExRAPTORx Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 but as stated it is hard to do anything when enable/disable don't seem to work and trying to white list people is a nightmare as they are scattered all over the map and still show 10 minutes after disconnection. it even still shows when the Xbox has been unplugged from the mains for ages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACExRAPTORx Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 Also on a side note i think the radius should disapear or something when disabled so people know as the enable/disable function seems to do nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrizzy Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 The geofilter shows both the servers and the players in your party as well as players in the matchmaking lobby. Once you have a party of friends set up, go to the host filtering page and go down to "host descriptor". Click the circles on that map (as these will represent your friends if you are the only ones in the party), then one by one drag the meter to 100 percent and hit update. You can even name them. This will "white-list" the players so you can always connect to them, regardless of the filter settings. Once you do this and refresh, your friends should show on the map as dotted circles, which will differentiate them from other servers/players you connect to, even if their location is off a bit. Lastly, the dots represent both current and recent servers/players you've connected to. If you would like to reduce the number shown, untick the option that says dormant hosts near the zoom function. I would also suggest loading up the game with the geolfiter off to begin with, as this seems to be when the game checks which servers you can connect to. If you interrupt that process, the game may deny you access to the servers no matter what you do thereafter. So reboot the game with Geo off and once you clear the main loading screen and are in a lobby preparing to find a game, then enable the filter to your specified parameters. Start wide to see if you can find games, if so feel free to "tighten" your restrictions by range, ping, etc. Give it a try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACExRAPTORx Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 Thx i understand all that but as pointed out i am unable to even consider white lists when i have an error stating unable to connect to party as blocked by your network or something of that discription when network and game shows open and geo filter is off (supposedly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACExRAPTORx Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 I also get a ping graph (usually 100 ms) when sat not in party or with no game loaded and on the same token i could also get into a game of say fifa and it is always 1 red bar and the ping graph is on and off the whole time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACExRAPTORx Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 As far as loading say BO3 up with geo off then turning it on just before i search for a game.... don't work either as ALL servers are blocked as if the geo was still on as i have been stating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Netduma Staff Netduma Crossy Posted January 16, 2016 Netduma Staff Share Posted January 16, 2016 As far as loading say BO3 up with geo off then turning it on just before i search for a game.... don't work either as ALL servers are blocked as if the geo was still on as i have been stating In congestion control, press reset distribution and then don't change the device prioritisation after that. See if that makes the UI more responsive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACExRAPTORx Posted January 21, 2016 Author Share Posted January 21, 2016 yes tried all that over the last few days but as stated AGAIN it is as though the geo does not work I.E still blocks servers (rainbow 6) when geo is turned off even with strick and all other boxes unticked. and then in other cases does not block servers when it is turned on... just seems like all these menus and options are just visual as they seem to have NO impact 70% of the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 21, 2016 Administrators Share Posted January 21, 2016 If you hard turn off the console, ensure Geo is disabled (and nothing on the map) then turn on the console does it work correctly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACExRAPTORx Posted January 23, 2016 Author Share Posted January 23, 2016 From the posts about this product it seems it is hit or miss in that it either works flawlessly of does not really work at all. i am on BT infinity 2 75 down 19 up. connected up and set up as instructed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACExRAPTORx Posted January 24, 2016 Author Share Posted January 24, 2016 Guess everyone is a host. even the dedi in Ireland that has been connecting me to all day even when geo is shrunk so the dedi is out of range and after a router reboot and even an Xbox hard reset Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Staff Netduma Crossy Posted January 24, 2016 Netduma Staff Share Posted January 24, 2016 That means you are host. You're posting lots of issues here which is making it more difficult to help. Maybe if you go one at a time it will be easier to solve them And make sure your browser is Chrome - don't use IE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzy clam Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I would suggest you read the WIKI as it explains a lot about the router and how to set it up. Also has the answers to a lot of the issues your having,such as "if all the circles are the same size your the host" And let us help you get things sorted out but as Crossy said let's go one at a time.
