Something wrong with my router?


Recommended Posts

Nowadays when I try to search for a game with a party I have my distance at 1000 km & ping assist on 50 most of the time but it acts like it don't wanna find a lobby near me when I know theres lobbies near me cause I seriously doubt theres no lobbies in west coast like what so ever thats like really hard for me to believe... (also just wanna state that I whitelist my friends I always play with but most cases it acts like it don't wanna find a lobby & I just wanna address another problem one of my friends every time I whitelist him he ends up not whitelisted like it'll still have him in the dot but its a whole new dot on the geo map like its completely new)

I snapped once & still have ping assist on 50 now it just found something but is 1000 km not worthwhile anymore or does it depend on where a person is at?

First of all what game are you trying to connect to? The server locations all depend on the game itself; though it's still very doubtful there wouldn't be any on the West Coast no matter the game. You can still get good games even though they aren't too close to you; having ping assist on 50 and turning strict mode off will be beneficial if you can't find servers easily. That way you could find decent games anywhere in America.

 

Merry Christmas :)

Yeah strict wouldn't even be on but its having a very hard time finding games anyway & I don't have a clue why & not long ago it'd work just fine with the settings I had running but now I'd see so much yellow stop signs on the map when I search for a game & I've tried finding a match with the home location on the server that benefits me for low ping but it either take forever to find a match or not at all so I don't have a clue what to do... Ill try testing it out again hoping for different results but frankly I know I might need help with this one

 

Btw Merry Christmas to you too

Guess I can't run 1000 km anymore so I now use the Cod profiles instead it seems to work & have found lobbies all day w/o a problem

  • Hard turn off the console. 
  • Place location
  • Strict on
  • 1000km
  • PA 0 or 50 if you prefer
  • Turn on console

Should get games easily ^

Idk why but strict mode with said settings only works for TDM on IW but as soon as I try it in other games mode I'd be sitting in a empty lobby for a decade either that or every 1 or so ppl join but leave cause its taking to long picking up others

It's possible that the other playlists are not as popular so having the radius where it is doesn't have enough players there.

Yeah but at the same time I don't wanna expand the radius too much cause if I do then Ill be putting up with lag consistently I mean I can probably hard throttle but still

You won't necessarily have to put up with lag if you set up your ping assist too. What's your average ping in a game? You shouldn't need to throttle. You might have to bite the bullet if there aren't servers near you, though ping assist will definitely help you to find ones that are still good.

I pretty much have the exact same issue.  I live in the Phoenix, AZ metro area and with my distance covering most of the US (west of the Mississippi), some of Canada, and some of Mexico.  It's almost like there isn't anything except Seattle, WA or St. Louis, MO.  Very strange.

Quite a few people are having trouble getting games in IW, you've got to set the Geofilter up to be pretty relaxed in order to get games. Still, Frasers settings suggestion above tends to do the trick. What game mode are you playing?
