bossman Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 I'm located in Canada and have a question about putting my geo-filter location in say, Iraq. If I had filtering on, but strict mode off and ping assist to zero, would I connect to servers around Iraq since game would load me into an Iraq/Saudi server or revert back to US?

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 9, 2021 Administrators Share Posted January 9, 2021 There are no servers in Irag, I think there may only be one server in Saudi. To force you'd need strict on as well as Ping Assist at 0. If you managed to get a server that far away which I doubt you would then the ping would be very high and it wouldn't be a good game experience.

That explains why I couldn't connect to South Africa/Saudi servers. If I wanted to find lobbies w/ best ping, would I filter w/ location in ocean, strict mode off and ping assist to around 30?

Some people do choose to do that yes so definitely try that out. Depending on what firmware version you're on you could use Ping Heatmap to find the lowest pinged servers regardless of where they appear on the map and then set your Geo-Filter accordingly.

Done 🙌 I have an issue tho. It says filtering mode is not supported for the game. I've setup my device again, which is a PC, and I chose Call of Duty (PC Only). Do I need to just choose "Call of Duty" instead of "Call of Duty (PC Only)" as the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remove that from the Geo-Filter then in the Device Manager give the PC a PlayStation device type, then re-add it to the Geo-Filter and select the manual option, you will then be able to filter the game on the PC.

Hi Since upgrading to 3 my nat type on the game is still moderate even tho I added the ports again. I was also disconnected from mw servers just now, not sure if that's on their end or not.

If it happens again quickly look at the Geo-Filter and see if there is anything that appears blocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ISP modem/router is in bridge/modem only mode. PC and WiFi devices are connected to the R1. I have UPNP enabled and have added the Warzone ports in DumaOS. I'm not using Geo-Filter currently and have removed the device. It appears MW/WZ servers are having issues. NAT is still moderate, not a big deal I suppose.

Are there any other devices/users on your network that are playing Warzone at the same time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Download speed now starts around 25mb and creeps up to 40-60mb, very inconsistent. This is on my PC connected via ethernet. Same thing happens via WiFi but a bit slower speeds obviously. This never happened before. WiFi settings are just as is from factory, I just set ssid/password. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've attached a pic of the benchmark and a pic from speedtest.net bc it utilizes multi connections and shows true performance.. Before using the R1 my speeds never dropped below 62mb when doing a test on speedtest.net. I was downloading a 1.4GB file the other day on my PC at like 3mb/sec (usually get 6+mb/sec) and the WiFi crapped out. Also happened when trying to stream to YouTube and dropped a huge amount of frames. I have all settings factory on the router. I'm going to try a factory reset right now.
