SwiftCookie Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 Hey! I've found the connections on the new Infinite Warfare on ps4 to be terrible. Ever since switching over to fibre to the node ive notice the lag compensation fucking me over something fierce. Im losing 1 on 1 battles I'd normally win. I went from having 3kdr in blops 3 to barely going positive in IW. I feel like some people have major connection over me, they're like gods among men lol Anyway I've been looking into the Netduma and am wondering if anyone from Australia has used a Netduma with they're Technicolor (tg799vac) on vdsl2/FTTN. I've been watching videos on how to throttle your Internet speed to reduce bufferbloat/jitter, does this actually work and help with online gaming? Cheers!

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 9, 2016 Administrators Share Posted November 9, 2016 Hey, welcome to the forum! I personally believe throttling is a placebo effect - you don't require a lot of bandwidth to play anyway. Jitter, spikes etc are definite factors that can impact your gaming. We definitely have a few Aussies around so I'll let them answer your specific question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So are Jitter and Spikes things that can be worked on somehow or is that the luck of the draw with your quality of line and ISP? A7 is in Australia and few others. Swears by netduma I'd love to hear what he has to say, I'm calling you out bro! haha Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can have jitter and spikes caused by local congestion - that is what we can eliminate to ensure you have a stable connection. You could also have jitter/spikes on your line. That is something that only your ISP could resolve. In those circumstances we recommend people use a program called Ping Plotter to do some tests on their line. If results show jitter/spikes we recommend contacting the ISP which the graphs as proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Netduma Staff Netduma Jack Posted November 10, 2016 Netduma Staff Share Posted November 10, 2016 Our router fixes jitter and spikes using congestion control, which allocates the bandwidth of connected devices in ways that you can choose. It can share the excess bandwidth allocated to certain devices, as well as put particular devices in the front of the bandwidth "queue". I'm not the programmer though, so I'm not able to tell you what anti-jitter and anti-spike technology comprises of. We're the only router in the world using this technology though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
