CrossFitKila717 Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 So, I just reverted back to the original R1 firmware & set my home location on the east coast, in the attempt to force a higher ping server. I live in Texas, so how am I getting only a 5ms ping? Something seems real off with that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Admin Posted April 16, 2019 Administrators Share Posted April 16, 2019 The server is appearing over there right? Make sure you're using the bleeding edge cloud (>Settings >Miscellaneous) in case the server is actually located nearer to you. I'd be surprised if you consistently are getting 5ms pings after that if they're a considerable distance away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the server is within the radius I set on the east coast, where I put my home location. Bleeding Edge cloud is enabled, which is default. Should I factory reset now that I’ve switched back to original firmware? I thought I read somewhere that some settings could be inadvertently saved from reverting back & that we should factory reset after? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted April 16, 2019 Administrators Share Posted April 16, 2019 Apply the cloud again to flush it to ensure it's on the correct version. It could just be a mislocated server. Its regarded as a good idea to do so after an upgrade/downgrade to ensure no legacy issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it’s regarded as a good idea to apply the cloud again or factory reset? Or both? Today it showed the same server at 41ms ping, which now seems accurate but it still showed the server only 61 miles away? Lol 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted April 16, 2019 Administrators Share Posted April 16, 2019 Both but I was referring to factory reset specifically. The distance is based on where you've set your home location so that sounds like it's working correctly now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason I was thinking it’s still the distance from my “actual” location. Netduma Admin and Netduma Fraser 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
