Impossible multiplayer

[Turrell90]

Hi, I live on the east coast of England. On BO3 I could always connect to a server in Ireland which gave me a ping if around 20ms and almost all the time the game played great. Now on BO4 I cannot connect to that server but always to one on the south coast of England. The ping is now 8ms but the game bis unplayable, if I am 1 v 1 I always lose the instant I see the other player. If i put that server outside of my search area it just says can't connect to server and takes me back to choose multiplayer screen. Very occasionally I connect to a server in northern France which is great but this is very occasionally. Why can't I get on this server all the time? Any other help would be much appreciated, thanks.

Put your radius and location over that French server. Then hard turn off the game, wait two minutes then boot up the game, can you get that server every time now?

Yes it did work thanks. If I am not worried about other devices accessing the internet in my house are there optimal settings for my download/upload cap and my device prioritisation? Thanks

Probably the best thing to do there is setting your Anti Flood (on DumaOS this is called Anti-Bufferbloat) to 70% / 70%. That is an optimum setting for gaming - the reason for it gets quite technical, but you can find out more about what that feature does here: https://netduma.com/blog/beginners-guide-to-bufferbloat/

Then I'd just reset Device Prioritisation and allow it to share bandwidth equally. I hope this helps!

Keep 'DumaOS Classified Games' enabled.
