Netduma Staff Netduma Jack Posted June 21, 2016 Netduma Staff Share Posted June 21, 2016 Hey, welcome to the forum! The Geo-filter will enable you to get closer hosts, however given your location there are not many close dedicated servers. Therefore you may be able to force P2P games. If your lag spikes are caused by local congestion then yes it will definitely help! If it's caused by line issues we can't help with that, you'd need to go to your ISP about that.

PharmDawgg Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Yes congestion control will help if you have an other devices on your network even if you are not using them. A lot of devices have background processes running that can affect you networks congestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Default_20 Posted June 28, 2016 Author Share Posted June 28, 2016 So there is no benefit if I am using a single device and will not fix ping spikes for single device or will it help with ping spikes if I am using single device Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PharmDawgg Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 You may not get as much benefit from the congestion sliders but you will still obtain benefit from the algorithim selected ( reactive vs preemptive) and the prioritisation function as well.

bagsta69 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 It may be worth running pingplotter for several hours at peak times to rule out any ISP line issues first. You can put the results up here and people will be able to interpret them for you if you are struggling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Staff Netduma Jack Posted June 28, 2016 Netduma Staff Share Posted June 28, 2016 Is the speed you mentioned (4mbps down, 426kbps up) the speed you're meant to be getting on your package? I would recommend these steps: - Pre-emptive Algorithm - 100% anti-flood - Share excess enabled - Reset device prioritisation & apply - Ensure the ethernet cables you're using are correct. - Do a wired speed test from a PC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Default_20 Posted June 28, 2016 Author Share Posted June 28, 2016 Yeah my speeds are what I get from my isp they are 4mbps down and 426-726kbps planning to give congestion control on 70 percent cause ping spikes are something else for me I checked my line no probelms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 29, 2016 Administrators Share Posted June 29, 2016 Great, using anti-flood will prevent any spikes caused by people/devices in your home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzy clam Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 The duma should definitely help you with the issues you asked about as well as keep the host your connecting to in a specific radius the you choose,so no more connecting to a host 5000 miles away and the dreaded distance lag with high ping.
