Stephenmd Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Ive setup my r2 in this format... ISP > R2 > Google Wifi. my xbox series x & my pc are plugged to the r2 everything functions properly haven’t had any issues. I currently have 1000 down 41 up speeds I’m curious in regards to port forwarding lets say I set my pc as a playstation In order to see the servers in geofilter, do I have to set the ports to playstation ports or do I continue using pc ports? Id also like some help setting up my qos & port forwarding because my ping has been higher w r2... I normally get 19-30ms ping in game & ive been 30-50ms ever since. in qos whenever I do the auto setup it ends up taking the sliders down to 1%, is it better to prioritize ping or bandwidth? thanks in advance for any help 🤟🏽 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 9, 2021 Administrators Share Posted January 9, 2021 You would continue to use PC ports for port forwarding. For QoS I'd suggest you first do a Connection Benchmark test and see what the results are. Then experiment with the Congestion Control percentages until you find what gets the Ping Under Load test down as close as possible to the Ping Test. We're still improving auto setup as it's too aggressive at the moment. What is your Geo-Filter settings currently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephenmd Posted January 10, 2021 Author Share Posted January 10, 2021 @Fraser13 i currently have my pc set up as playstation, filtering on, 1869 radius, 40 ping assist, strict mode and fast search... but my internet doesnt feel right at all also how would the congestion cointrol function if my google wifi is plugged into it... wouldnt that cause it to run differently.... pc and xbox are wired to r2 honestly nothing even pops up in the geo filter... a dedi server somewhere in europe pops up briefly and disappears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 10, 2021 Administrators Share Posted January 10, 2021 What do you mean the internet doesn't feel right? Depending on your settings it may be able to get less speed but this is to ensure that you don't experience any lag or buffering etc. Speeds such as yours would only really be useful when doing a download and you could always disable QoS temporarily when doing so. Can you provide a screenshot of your entire screen on the Geo-Filter page please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wxstrn Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Interesting you get the server in Germany pinging. I thought this was Xfast LAN or something pinging me. However, I uninstalled all of that. Is this a DUMA process? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remove the device from the Geo-Filter Go to Device Manager and give the device a PlayStation device type. Re-add the device to the Geo-Filter and choose the manual option Flush the cloud Setup your settings with 0 Ping Assist Wait 2 minutes Boot up the game Also suggest using Congestion Control on Always and experimenting with the percentages to see what brings down the ping under load as much as possible.

It was associated with a program I had on my PC for my LAN. But, I cannot deny it now. Am i missing something Fraser? Is this maybe a server associated with DUMA or maybe the game I am playing? (COD)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then on the Device Manager look for the device that has the same IP. It might be the device you thought was the PC was something else instead. If that is the case you can then add the correct device to the Geo-Filter and it should work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephenmd Posted January 11, 2021 Author Share Posted January 11, 2021 following the reset and factory reset now the player icon is also popping up but that's about it. nothing else pops up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephenmd Posted January 11, 2021 Author Share Posted January 11, 2021 the server I’m in doesn't pop up nothing besides player and that dedi server I sent a screenshot of (id:ccb9b580566b1d22 /name:. stun.us.demonware.net) pops up in geo filter @Netduma Fraser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephenmd Posted January 11, 2021 Author Share Posted January 11, 2021 I’m not too sure whats going on but this is starting to be really frustrating as the icons just briefly pop up, ive reset the r2, my ping is way higher then when I didn't have the netduma... the geo filter does not work and ive already tried all the copy pasted responses.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 11, 2021 Administrators Share Posted January 11, 2021 Can you provide a screenshot of where you're seeing that player icon please? I imagine that must be the server, ping it and provide the ID for that also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephenmd Posted January 11, 2021 Author Share Posted January 11, 2021 upon further testing I was unable to get the player icon to pop up again but this is where. I don’t think it was the NY server because my ping was high like 50-73ms... I’m actually in NYC so it should be 19-28ms (at least that’s what I got prior to getting r2) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
