NEW FEATURE ANNOUNCEMENT: GEO-FENCING

When we launched the Geo-Filter back in 2014, it changed the way gamers experienced matchmaking. By giving you control over the servers you play on, you were able to eliminate the biggest cause of lag in gaming; distance.

However, it's not always just a simple case of playing on the servers closest to your home - not all servers are made equal, and some can be lower quality despite being closer to you. We made Geo-Fencing to give you total control and solve this problem once and for all.

With Geo-Fencing you can draw multiple Geo-Filters around the servers you like and block the servers you don't, giving you unprecedented control over the matchmaking process. Draw filters around your region or country, or only draw around the best servers in the world - online matchmaking is now in your hands.

DumaOS 3.0 is the biggest update we have ever built, effectively doubling the feature set. Geo-Fencing is just one of many features coming to your router with DumaOS v3.0, so stay tuned for our next feature announcement.

How  about we get it already along with so many bug issues that's been on this expensive router?.. sticking with this router since day 1 of purchase due to all cool features that's implemented on the xr500 but performance wise is still questionable as i too am waiting for the new update that hopefully will deliver...

It takes time to work on such a big update, this update will allow us to make faster changes to individual Rapps, allowing us to fix issues much quicker than before without doing a firmware update.

Regarding the app, since my PC is often occupied by my brother, can you in the meantime make it so that if I open routerlogin.net, I don't enter a login loop while using mobile browsers, please? It completely screws my mobile phone, and it logs out every time my screen goes black!

That's the way the login works unfortunately and we haven't had proper mobile support the entire time which is why we're making a phone app now. We're too far into 3.0 now to pivot and do an update.

Ummmm... all servers are not created equal? And the one next to some is not of good quality?.... what should we do if we run into that problem? And by the way, nice layout for the upcoming news. Cant wait to try geo-fencing out. Gives us something different besides the circle, LOL!

I totally agree with you. Have you heard of the phrase "less is more"? In my experience with netduma, the only difference between the r1 and xr500 is the wifi, LOL! Which is helpful for me because I have a family of 5, and everyone could benefit from good wifi

Well that's the point, with this feature you'll be able to draw custom areas to allow servers within so you could put it wherever you like. That way instead of encompassing servers that are both good and bad in your radius you can just select areas where you know the servers are good.

So out of curiosity; how do I find a server that is "good"? For years, Ive been connecting to the Jersey server (COD), and been complaining about how trash it is. I really though location to the server was the right thing to do, since distance and ping are important.

At the moment, trial and error. Forcing different servers around you and see what plays best for you. If a server has low ping but is under heavy load then it may not play as well as say a server with slightly higher ping but not under load. In DumaOS 3.0 there may be a feature that will help you determine which servers are better... 🤐

That doesn't require a firmware upgrade, all that is needed is a cloud update. Have you added your friends to your allow list?
