Guest Netduma Fraser Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Preemptive is for speeds below 60 and reactive is for speeds above 60. So I'd recommend reactive for you if you really want that extra 6mbps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zennon Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 In my testing on my 6mb down 1mb up adsl LLU line is that reactive keeps mine and my sons pc's pings right down when downloading surfing etc at 70% to 90% still low pings and no spikes where as preemtive tends to have high spikes every now and then and not as low ping. I was totaly amazed after all i had read saying to use preemtive for my connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pre-emptive the Netduma team have their own algorithms at work to help out with congestion control Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Netduma_Iain Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Hi Zennon, yes preemptive should help more at lower speeds. What percentage have you set it at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zennon Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 I have tried lots of different settings 70% on both 80% 50% etc and reactive works outs best for me with lower over all pings while somebodys is dl'ing and no spikes , so i am happy with it just letting you know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Netduma_Iain Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Oh whichever you prefer thats why we gave you the option. Its a bit odd, if you like I can help investigate but if you're happy with reactive keep it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zennon Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 I know it should not work that way but yeah reactive has an over all better effect on lowering my pings , and yes i am more than happy with it 20ms pings when watching hd youtube and browsing is super fast while downloads are running. I used to use cfosspeed on our machines for something similar but that is long gone now , your flood protection out does it by miles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbaron Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 i have really good speeds but i'm unsure of my best settings. they seemed to best at the very start before i tinkered with stuff after following the net duma best settings guide. i'm not saying they're wrong but maybe i played around too much. any advice?
