Ritchey23 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Hi! Few days ago bought new Netduma R2 router very happy about that But reason why i ask for help is PING differences in my favorite game NHL always in-game i have ping around 35+ but Netduma software show around 15ms so i ask what problem can be? Living near Riga(Latvia) and EA server is SWE Stockholm 500km away and was ping testing other sites shows around 10-14ping Thanks Netduma team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted August 28, 2020 Administrators Share Posted August 28, 2020 Hey, welcome to the forum! Glad you're enjoying the router! You're getting a great ping so nothing to worry about there. The reason for the discrepancy is that games have things such as processing delay which adds latency, all games have it, not all choose to show it. So sort of a good rule to follow is if the in game ping shows 20-30ms higher than the Geo-Filter then that is good. If the Geo-Filter ping is still low but the in game ping is higher than the additional 20-30 then it could be an indication the server is under heavy load and may be a good idea to try and force another server. The Geo-Filter ping is the ping direct to the server or to the last available hop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritchey23 Posted August 28, 2020 Author Share Posted August 28, 2020 Thanks for answering! but fun fact i had always around in-game 22ping and when got it Duma R2 it was showing almost same ping.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted August 28, 2020 Administrators Share Posted August 28, 2020 Okay so that will just be changes on the server side then if your Geo-Filter ping is the same each time. Only thing you can really do is try to force some other servers but they are both good pings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted August 28, 2020 Administrators Share Posted August 28, 2020 If you play during different times of the day does the ping change at all? You won't always get a complete trace so nothing to worry about there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
