Throttle to help me out?


Dennis Pantalone

Recommended Posts

My ISP download is 155 mbps down and 15 mbps up. So i play reactiv.

I have two devices connected to the Duma, ps4 and PC.

 

If i set the priorisation 99 to PC and 1 to the PS4 by download and upload.

 

Now i put congestion control settings to 10 down and 10 up. Lower can't as you know.

 

My bandwith is still 1400 kbps on COD....

 

How can i lower that further to 200 kbps for example.

 

I am located in the Netherlands and lately i am not so happy with my Duma.

 

I don't know what it is but the feeling that the Duma is helping me is gone. With my old ICIDU 300N I had better results? Half way during blops.

 

Now I want to try to throttle, i never did that before. But 1400 kbps is not enough to try to get that edge I suppose.

 

I respect the Duma but maybe its better for people in areas where there are no dedi's etc. I have 3 dedis in 300 km...... Always on 10 m/s ping what router I use, no diffrence. 

 

So how can I get the edge? By throthling?

 

I opened the ports for cod in the Duma, i play by wire etc etc etc.....

 

Hoping for a cool answer. Have a nice day.

Throttling is not going to help you, however do you have share excess ticked or un ticked? I live in the UK and we have a dedicated server here on the South Coast to which I connect 99% of the time on a PS4.

For the last few days the game has been connecting me to the dedi in the Netherlands and it has been playing awful.

However as I have already said, (and I have tested this over several years on numerous occasions) IMHO,you will not get and edge by throttling your bandwidth.

I usually play on 2 dedi's, the one in the netherlands or the one in Germany. If i (in the past) played on the server in the Uk it was rubbish for me.

I play on CoD ultimate settings or my own settings and it plays god awful. Usually 500 spm and now glad to get a 300 spm. Usually 2.5 kd or higher, now hard to get 1.kd.

That's your problem, if share excess is ticked it shares out your excess bandwidth to whatever needs it even if it doesn't need it., if you untick it, it will not share any excess.

But really I have tested the whole throttling issue on ghosts, Advanced warfare and Black Ops3 and over 10 games there is no definitive improvement.

It has to be... I simply miss the edge I (we) had. And what u say ( what I experienced to) is true usually it doesn't make a big diffrence for me if i play fe on cc 70-70 or 25 

I try the throtthling today and look what it does for me.

 

Didn't notice much indeed, just played on 26 kbps sec. And that slowed the upload for collecting coins... a litle delay but slightly...

Throttling won't do much. The game doesn't require much bandwidth anyway. 

 

You can't go wrong with 70/70 anti-flood, perhaps you could look into adjusting for bufferbloat as people have had success with that

The Netduma is not about "getting the edge" over your opponents, it is about getting connected to the best possible hosts and about minimising congestion issues on your local network.

 

What you are doing is looking for an exploit to 'get around lag comp', as they say. Basically you're just trying to cheat.

You're chasing shadows with this anyway and I'm quite confident that you won't see any benefit but carry on if you want.

 

If you do actually manage to improve your KD via some other means of manipulation (it won't be by throttling though) then keep it to yourself and don't bother posting a video of your 'achievements' because it will be hollow.

 

If you have to be the best at all costs, even by cheating, then there's something very wrong with you because that's not what gaming or competition is about.

If you achieve any kind of success you will deserve no admiration, only contempt.

OOh Colonic....

 

I lately discovered ping spikes I never noticed before.

Reaction: oh it is your connection.

I didn't change a thing. I maxed my bufferbloat out and it was oke. In february, march the results where a- ok. But it isn't anymore what it was.

 

My results with my old router were better than they are now with this "godly lag busting thing" Like I say, it is getting worser day by day.... The results where way better a few months ago than they are nowadays. Reaction: it are the servers from Call of Duty. Yeah... easy. My bufferbloat etcetera is the same as it was.

 

I really begin to think it doesn't make a difference anymore at all. Maybe its the Netdumas coding? Maybe it is my location. Maybe it is your mama... But it is real easy. I go and play on my old router, results guaranteed in the past. And i will look what happens next.

 

Oh yeah:

And using functions on this router to try to get a better connection is cheating.... Aaah  Very very wise words.... i think you are not as smart as you pretend to be....

 

And also you are not so special ass your mum says because I think every athlete, sportsman, gamer, f1 driver wants to be the best so they train over and over again to get the best results from there selfs.

If it is a mechanised sport they try to find the right settings needed to get the win... Your words: thats cheating...... Oke.

So trying different settings to get better results is cheating???? We are buying this thing to get better results out of the internet. But it doesn't guarantee that anymore....

 

Simpel... stop selling this product or update the shit so it is working again as it was...

And stop giving me brainless answers whole day as i want to try something with this fucking thing. I'm giving the Duma a chance but it is to late i think.

 

WITH A SPECIAL THANKS TO COLONICBOOM!!

 

What a mongol.......

 

I'm looking for some real serious discussion but all i get is fucking wannabee wiseguys saying nothing real at the end...

Have a nice evening.

I've told you how to throttle the connection using the settings on the Duma

There us no need for them to stop selling the product because it does exactly what it says it does.

A lot smarter and tech savvy people will also tell you that throttling does not have an effect.

Have you tried ruling out a bad line from your isp.

I have read posts on here shout box Twitter etc that all say the game black ops 3 is playing poorly but when they go back to play earlier iterations of the game they are playing nice and smooth.

Blops3 is playing mostly on dedicated servers.

take from that what you will and I'm not a fucking wannabe wise guy I was trying to help you.

Peace out and happy hunting.

Everyone wants to have the best advantage possible for the best gaming experience that they can.  That is reason that I purchased the Netduma, BBC controller, Benq monitor, Kontrol Freeks, and many other BS gimmicks over the years.

 

There are many network factors that are beyond our control (network congestion outside our houses, server performance, the other players' connections, game coding, etc.)

 

With BO3, every round/game will be different because of the factors above.  I normally monitor the Netduma host filtering on my laptop while I am gaming.  Here are some basic observations that I have found.

 

1.  I live in the US, play on US servers and notice that we often get players in the lobbies from Mexico, Panama, Puerto Rico and many South American countries. You can usually tell who these players are by the gamertag and/or connection status (often 2-3 bars).  When I see this, I KNOW that this will NOT be a great connection based game and I will be about 1 second behind these players.

 

2. Even if a player is in the US, I notice that I get lag spikes when I encounter certain players.  Keep in mind that a 4 bar connection status is up to 100mS ping.  

 

3. If a bad connection player (see 2 above) is in a party, I usually find that I have similar results with their other party members too.

 

4.  Party leader connections and processing has a bigger effect than it should.  For example, if my party leader has a bad connection, we all seem to have a bad connection playing even if we are close to the dedicated server.

 

5. One of the biggest factors that seems to affect the game performance is the how often and how many people leave and join while the game is in progress.

 

Because of these issues, we all have to learn to adapt to the situation and find ways to counter the effects of the game.  

 

For example, if we have bad connection players or players outside the US, we will spread out on the map so we don't feed them with multi-kills.  We will also play it slower, camp a little, and use cover more than normal.  We will also get map control and just wait for them to come to use.

 

If the game is playing well, my team will rush together and plow through the enemy team.  

 

If one or more players are struggling with connection, they will be backup, support, bait or anchors for critical areas.  

 

Many people have shown that throttling does not work while others say that it does help.  You can use it.  However, throttling will not fix all the other issues that are outside our control.

Hey; let's keep this civil.

 

Ensure that your console is in hyper-traffic. Could you also tell us a little about your Geofilter settings? The Netduma is the only router out there tailored for gaming; and our customers attest to it giving them the best possible connection. If you're having trouble with it, it likely is due to the settings; but could also be something more complex we need to resolve. Please post the results of a speed-test as well as a screen-shot of your Geofilter + Geofilter settings while in the game. If we can't fix the problems you're having through this forum, we'll arrange a 1 on 1 with you so we can resolve it remotely.

You're a menace Dennis. Calm down and stop gnashing your teeth.

Insulting people or the product is not going to get you any help.

 

Bagsta already told you exactly which setting you have overlooked that is stopping you from throttling your connection and we both told you that throttling probably won't make any difference (others disagree but that's a battle that has had a truce called).

I also said "carry on if you want" to try throttling. So go for it, throttle away.

 

There's no need to get so over excited or rude though, I didn't even mention most of the stuff you're ranting about.

I didn't mention using the Netduma features to cheat, I said that if you discover "some OTHER means of manipulation (it won't be by throttling)" then don't post it here because we don't encourage cheating.

 

Ping spikes. You didn't have ping spikes in February but you have noticed some now...

Four months later.

 

Unsurprisingly it could be caused by almost anything.

Everyone knows the servers are extremely flakey at the moment, and it could easily be your connection seeing as four months have passed - I'm sure you've ruled that out though because you seem like an intelligent chap that wouldn't make stupid assumptions.

 

You're right, athletes do strive to be the best and they practice relentlessly but we're not talking about athletes or practice.

I was talking about people trying to circumvent the rules to gain an unfair advantage - which is obviously cheating.

Perhaps if you put as much effort into practice as you do into whining and trolling then you would see some improvement in your performances.

 

I'm not actually calling you a cheat though, I'm trying to dissuade you from becoming one as there is no turning back and there is no glory in a fraudulent victory.

 

Your connections problems definitely aren't caused by my 'easy' Mama though, I've asked her and she has promised me that she hasn't been messing around with your internet at all.

I will make sure to ask your Mama when she wakes up, she's absolutely exhausted after last night but that's not surprising considering her gymnastics.

She's a ravenous porcine strumpet but I doubt she has the capacity or desire to tinker with router settings.

 

I'm not pretending to be smart, nor am I pretending to be technically minded, I don't think I said anything remotely technical in my post.

But if I were you I'd run ping plotter for a while on a quiet network and then post the results up here, I'm always happy to help a charming gentleman like yourself.

And I wouldn't bother giving me any further grief because in a battle of articulation between the two of us you wouldn't even come second. Like your Mama.

Well if you get better results on your old router,then I would play on your old router and sell your duma and let someone else enjoy it.

 

But all the bullshit directed and CB,was uncalled for.But did get a laugh out of the "mama' comment,what are you 10 years old.

 

Seems to me you solved your own problem,again if you get better results on your old router then use your old router,pretty simple problem solved.

He's a troll fuzzy.  Came into the shoutbox about a week ago insulting all duma users.  Pretty much claimed we were all noobs for using it and that you could never top the leaderboards.  I mentioned that many of us top the leaderboards which in turn had him challenge me to 1v1's for the next half hour or so.  Asked the same question about being 10 then. Either he really is or is just a very ignorant adult.  Not sure on which.  The only thing that is certain is that if he's offered help, in turn he is going to pick someone to continue insulting.

everyone just keep calm and carry on, we are all just here for a good time with a good product.

 

Sometimes people don't get the golden goose results they desire, remember that network topography isn't just a router in your house.  I also am unsure that help should be given to the above congestion controller question.  You appear to be trying to game the CoD net code to get a cheating advantage.

 

good luck on your endeavors.

Cool story bro...

 

You want a serious discussion, OK, how does the router go from working to not working if you haven't changed anything, even the firmware is the same?

 

Answer: The router hasn't changed, the Internet and BO3 is comprised of your home network, your ISP Node(s), cabling, weather, dedicated servers, their cabling, weather, etc... Use ping plotter to check that something isn't wrong on your end dude.

 

A well tuned Netduma and connection baby!

The router can provide great results, you will need to learn more, that's all, no need to be rude.

 

I don't throttle, throttling doesn't work, it used to before the early hotfuxes changed some NetCode, now you'll need to keep jitter low, the lower your internal jitter, the better.

Jitter on the dedicated servers is inevitable however everyone else will have to deal with that as well, sorting your end network is what you do have control over which is why I suggest you read up and learn how to use ping plotter.

Hahhahaha,

I love ure reactions! Thnx... I am a menace and I HATE-RATE, people who are agressively trying to convince their believes and setting it up so it comes over like i am trying to cheat those people get the wrong end....

 

I like 8 thoughts and i don't like Tmartn.... most of u do.. That's clear... You like T and Driftor etc.... But let's get it clear: If i have strange results you guys say its me or my settings....

 

Now stop fooling yourselfs and try to learn from eachother to develop this product.. Is it an end product? No clearly not. Can it be some programming issues or overall settings that cause trouble? Yes? So if i pay 200 fucking shit then i am critical, surely bout my questions. Because I notice them but according to u guys i am stupid. Thats up to u sheeple maybe i aint so stupid??

 

So if you want to change my way of reacting maybe you should try and look to yourselves... Don't pretend the Duma is holy... It's a try out.... you advertise like so because it's a start up.... So who's the goose?????

 

If you want a war you can get it.... COME ON LETS GOOO!!!! 

 

So imo the most reactions come from some 10 year old wannabees... Have fun kissing buttholes... but if you wanna act grown and like a multinational act that way and don't let the sheeple ruin your shit..

 

Clear?

1v1 me? HATE-RATE or THE-LAG or DE2NIS PANTALONE...

 

HAVe a grt weekend noobs...

Really, you are doing the 1v1 thing and calling us ten year olds,

Please just look at the scientific, proved evidence that this router does exactly what it says on the tin. Try and breathe and take it all in.

I along with my enlightened noob friends will wish you good day,

Really man just chill a bit. I thought you guys were well laid back over there. Maybe brexit was a good idea after all.

Just an update for you, One on One challenges and yo mamma jokes went out years ago dude. try to keep up. :)

Peace man. have a smoke.
