hi I go on geo filters with my xbox and pc all set up on my new xr500 ..it detects only about 1 server then disappears am I doing something wrong

ok, set your geo filter to spectating mode and start the game ( cod for example) when the game has launched enable the geo by placing it into filtering mode then search for a game lobby. Always go into spectating mode when finished gaming.

and when it does pop up it dosnt stay on it disappears so I carnt block or allow

Is it affecting you getting into the game? Could you provide a screenshot of the Geo-Filter page when this happens as well please? I'll move this post to the XR500 support section.

Does this only happen on your PC, on your Xbox or on both? It's possible that the PC needs to have its device type changed to a console in order to work properly.

it happens on both m8 and ive changed pc device to my playstation buddy

You're not filtering at all as all devices are set to spectating mode which means the Geo-Filter is not restricting your ability to get games. Also with Fornite you won't see anything on the map until it actually starts loading into the game and if you're on filtering mode then the server could be outside the radius and then boot you. So if spectating mode lets you into every game then that will be what is happening. Some people choose to use spectating mode and back out if it isn't a server they want as it can be quicker than waiting for a boot.
