jbaron Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 i've had my duma for 2 odd months now and I just cannot for the life of me find consistent settings or a stable profile. I bought it because I play a lot of cod and I wanted to cut the lag down to a minimum (esp when playing with my friend who has a pretty bad connection). I didn't expect to start bustin out nukes but I did expect to see a noticeable difference....for £150 you would right? I pay for virgins pretty much all singing/dancing deal and get speeds of 90mbs down and 6mbs up. my ping is good too and after 5 tests I got 7-7-25-22-16. I use the cc to sort my devices out, don't live with anyone that would be stealing connection and have all my other devices wifi off when I game. I've followed the duma set up guide (to the letter), put in my bandwidth (and sometimes get a "warning" message). I've gone pre-emptive, reactive, cod ultimate, set up 3 profiles that seemed to work, set up the ps on hyper but still find it so hit and miss. don't get me wrong there have been times where I def have felt the benefits so this is more of a cry for help than complaint. I also get that your device is more useful for peeps with bad connection or houses with multiple users. have I just made a bad purchase or am I doing something wrong? is it my friends dodgy connection as it's usually when I play with him but not always? and he says the connection is simply beautiful for him when he plays with me. I also didn't pay £150 so he can get amazing connection. I get there are multiple factors when it comes to cod but after 10 games without using the duma it feels better than with it. help!

Zennon Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 Would you mind downloading ping plotter and posting the results? Virgin is know by me to be a congested network with jitter issue's so it would be best to rule this out first before moving on to the duma. https://www.pingplotter.com/download.html Pro is free for 30 days then it reverts to free, type 8.8.8.8 into target and press go let it run in peak times (evenings) do not use the net while you test, post back the results please.

Zennon Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 That looks ok base ping 15ms with 3 25ms spikes. I would run a few more say one at 7 then another at 8 to make sure, thanks. What console do you play on ? If you are about now do you want me to check your setting via team viewer ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
