billcline Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 My connection is wired 60 down and 4 up. PS4. Which profile is best for me? I tried to COD ultimate but it put my home location in the middle of the atlantic ocean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secretface Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Some people put their home location in the middle of the ocean so that they are finding games via ping assist only. I think that's what that profile is trying to achieve. I personally don't use that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blankplanet Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 The COD Ultimate profile is pretty much what I was using before but I use an accurate-ish home location. The congestion sliders set to 70%, no share excess, PS4 gets 30 on the device slider as its just between that and my PC. I set my radius to cover the bottom half of England and that's what's worked best since I got the R1. It's just a matter of playing around with the settings to find the most consistent ones.

ImSallad Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 like SecretFace said, that profile is used for finding the best possible connections the NetDuma can find which is why your location is put in the ocean because it'll search for ping instead of location. I wouldn't take profiles off others though as we all have different connections and we all have different settings that work for each other. Some settings we will all run as they're universal but I'd just have a mess about with your location radius and ping assist and see where you sweet spot is for your location/connection.

Also, if I set a profile, go to a different router screen, then go back to the profile screen...it says "general gaming" in the profile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't matter as you've already loaded the profile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty45 Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 The closest server to me is in Seattle but for some reason my X1 will not connect to it even if I place my home location right next to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted February 18, 2016 Administrators Share Posted February 18, 2016 how long does it take to let them join? i disable it and they cant join. If it's disabled and they can't join then it is most likely a NAT or game issue, when it's disabled it acts like a regular router. The closest server to me is in Seattle but for some reason my X1 will not connect to it even if I place my home location right next to it. If it doesn't want to put you there it won't if there are other servers it can go for with your radius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billcline Posted February 24, 2016 Author Share Posted February 24, 2016 Im still having trouble getting people to connect to me. Specifically strangers that I have never met before that are trying to join the party. If I change the geo filter to the region the yellow icon is popping up in, and they can still not join, what do I do? I have also tried adding them to the filter and it will not let them in.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted February 25, 2016 Administrators Share Posted February 25, 2016 When you've added them to the allow list you may need to wait 2 minutes for the anti-cheat, so wait until the map clears and then get them to try joining again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun72 Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Not a big deal for me but I'm still getting the error message 'Failed: unable to import profile for unknown reason' when trying to save my current settings profile. http://forum.netduma.com/topic/11158-wont-let-me-save-a-profile/ Should I request a 1 on 1 or is there an incoming fix for this? Like I say not a major issue for me just would be handy to switch between profiles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 8, 2016 Administrators Share Posted March 8, 2016 If this is the same issue I resolved in a 1 on 1 make sure you're not saving/importing a profile that has either a Geo or Hyper traffic service as a port. It won't save when a port rather than a service is selected - this is a bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
