NahG Posted December 18, 2020 Author Share Posted December 18, 2020 Just now, Newfie said: 2.4 offers longer reach but I see a slight increase in jitter on my router, 5Ghz offers more bandwidth but shorter coverage. 2.4Ghz tends to have more interference than 5Ghz. Do they play COD or are they suffering with another game or all games? I prefer 5Ghz to be honest but that’s not to say 2.4Ghz is not good enough, R1 owners have been happy with just the 2.4Ghz. COD and Valorent It prolly has something to do with the upload ping since im getting bad bufferbloat in dsl REPORTS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure if it’s on by default @Netduma Fraser will know more on that than I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Netgear is at fault for layering their routers over top netdumas. This creates more room for error. And most of the bugs you see are from NG not duma. They have to tailor their code to fit NG, not the other way around. Also downgrade to .43, 100% more stable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the way the Speedtest is reading the connnection. It has something to do with download and upload method. Hopefully Fraser can find a fix soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 18, 2020 Administrators Share Posted December 18, 2020 Realistically with your speeds bufferbloat won't be much of an issue so you don't need to worry too much about that result. Newfie is right, probably after taking the extender out it will be more stable. If you have the Nighthawk mobile app you can connect and see if it is enabled/disabled there and disable it if it is enabled. You should have been given an option during setup to enable/disable.

AX is still evolving, other manufactures suffer issues as well if you read on SNB. It’s the way it is. NG have the codes behind the hardware side, after all you need drivers to make it tick. Dropping down you lose security updates and there are some nasty stuff that just love to play on your router. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRarsenxL Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Doesn’t excuse the right for NG to push out that make performance worse LOL. That’s just pure laziness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s just pure laziness If you have an issue then contact netgear support and raise it, simply log into your account and request support, I’m sure if you ask you may get to level 2 and then you can give your feedback directly to them. oroechimaru 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
