Six7 Tango Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Ping assist will not function properly for me on Black Ops 4 using my XR700, if i set ping assist to 45ms in the middle of the atlantic ocean when BO4 boots up every single dedicated server comes up as a triangle strict mode is enabled (turned it off for 1 attempt and it put me in european server) however if i turn ping assist off and use the circle radius i connect to 25ms Georgia US server 30ms Miami US server or 35ms Texas server. i play with friends on the west coast and can only get them in my party if i increase the radius of the circle and when i do this being the party host i get servers with higher than my max desired ping(45ms). i would like to use ping assist and just allow them on the allow/deny list so they can join me and then i would still connect to low ping servers however it is not working for me even if i play solo. im on the most current firmware (already tried down grading then reloading and did not work) any help or other suggestions? ping assist was working for me up until recently about the time of the last BO4 update, i did a factory reset and have tried multiple other fix attempts, resetting modem, having isp refresh my modem, and so on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Alex Posted May 21, 2019 Administrators Share Posted May 21, 2019 Sometimes if you upgraded from a firmware version which didn't have ping assist to a version that did, something would go wrong with the feature. A wonky installation perhaps?So here's a suggestion: downgrade and then upgrade again.DOWNGRADE to this version: https://kb.netgear.com/000060213/XR700-Firmware-Version-1-0-0-20Then straight away UPGRADE to this version (latest): https://kb.netgear.com/000060660/XR700-Firmware-Version-1-0-1-10And see if the problems still occur.

Administrators Netduma Alex Posted May 21, 2019 Administrators Share Posted May 21, 2019 Oops sorry. I missed the bit in the first post where you said you'd already tried downgrading and upgrading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Admin Posted May 21, 2019 Administrators Share Posted May 21, 2019 Hi Tango - we are seeing this ourselves in testing, which is really strange. So it's not just you! It used to be working. We are looking into this as a priority. Could you just confirm the firmware version you are on? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just checked with Joseph, who previously tested and fixed this issue on the XR700. He doesn't believe it should be happening on the latest firmware. Which router / firmware are you running and we can investigate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven't tested the game, what occurs when you boot up the game with the filter on? If there is one server being blocked then allow it, does that enable you to Geo-Filter from there?
