patnj Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Hey @Netduma Fraser, Will is be possible to down-grade the firmware from .205 to .179 after installation of .205 ? Just in case, as my .179 has been pretty stable for the past month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just downgrade the same way you upgraded but just with the .179 file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great to hear that! I've upgraded to 3.0.205 and also added TP rules for wired Xbox One X in QoS using the recommended ports for Call of Duty: TCP: 3074 UDP: 88, 500, 3074, 3075, 3544, 4500 For each of these rules, I selected "Gaming/Voice" as traffic type and also checked "Apply to WAN". Is this the correct way to set up the TP rules for these ports? Also, I have added Games Console and have DumaOS Classified Games turned on. Should these be added/removed or on/off if the ports listed above have already been added? Faris 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is too much prioritization really, I'd suggest using one or the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it did it should be minimal, it is my personal view that trying to prioritize the same traffic may cause conflicts. It's entirely up to you, any one of them will work. Some people feel they have a better experience just using ports so you could try that first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do the Games Console and DumasOS Classified Games settings open specific ports, and do they include any other traffic prioritisation settings?

Going to switch back to using Games Console setting, then try using congestion control again to see if that makes any difference.

Unfinished Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 I feel I need to add to this topic too. As with other recent threads, this is also something that I've noticed above. It appears that the traffic prioritisation/congestion control isn't working as described and I've had significant spikes in lag, at one point last night, I could see most of the worldwide Apex servers, so Geofilter had stopped working at that point. I was unable to grab the logs, as the GUI was inaccessible. I don't know if it's cause or effect, but the GUI accessibility (or not) is linked to the QOS system misbehaving and this is something far more noticeable with .205. I haven't had these same issues before, just random internet disconnects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbyhill214 Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 When can we expect an update that fixes the 5ghz wifi width problems and the long list of bugs .179 created? This latest update helped with the constant connection drops but still waiting to use my wifi at it's fullest potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be to do with how many devices you have, how many do you have connected to the router roughly? 2 hours ago, Bobbyhill214 said: When can we expect an update that fixes the 5ghz wifi width problems and the long list of bugs .179 created?

Make sure you've factory reset after that upgrade but we'll continue working on new firmware. This one has just been released so couldn't say exactly when another will be available.

Bobbyhill214 Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 I had factory reset after both firmware updates. From my knowledge factory resetting didn't fix any of the bugs that I'm talking about. Waited 3 and a half months for a firmware update after .179 then .205 was released. Which only fixed connection drops and bandwidth allocation, problems with the r2 that have been here since launch. May I suggest smaller patch style updates with monthly releases instead of major firmware updates that can take up to a quarter of a year to be released. I like the r2 for wired gaming but everything else is suffering with this weak wifi. Just worried that I may have to wait a half a year to run my wifi at the speeds I pay for.

I did notice my WiFi was better after this update after a reset on the standard settings so if you adjusted it try it at its defaults. We will continue to work on it and get updates out as soon as we can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing unusual is my lacklustre broadband speeds, which are generally slower down than most other peoples upload speeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you disable QoS fully from the CC menu does the GUI becoming inaccessible happen less frequently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate that it's for diagnostic purposes, but it does kind of defeat the purpose of the R2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitchellc756 Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 I've had no issues with the new firmware until tonight. Everything works as normal except for geo-filter. It wont load and just says, "The rapp is not loaded yet, please try again in a minute.": Any tips? I've rebooted and restarted the computer.

On the System Information page in Rapp panel options change the number of retries to 5 then reboot the router and see if it loads correctly then.
