Highly Suspect Posted March 12, 2021 Posted March 12, 2021 Hey guy's, I recently as of yesterday purchased an XR300 off of facebook marketplace because of the Geo-Filter option. I got everything setup and tested it out yesterday with the Texas server in Warzone. I noticed yesterday when it was setup, finding games was obviously harder, because I had my radius set to about 300 km. I bought the router to try and get easier lobbies, and yesterday I had a good success rate with it. Today I figured i'd set the home location to Saudia Arabia, I whitelisted the Dedicated server, set my radius to around 400km, and had no problem searching for lobbies. I got into a lobby in warzone, checked my ping in the Network tab of settings, and I had a normal ping. >:| I'm not sure what Flush Cloud does, but I gave that a shot. That also seems to get stuck. Did some previous research and found out QoS has something to do with it, so I turned that off as well. Still no luck. Here's a picture of what I got going on settings wise. Any help would be appreciated. Maybe I don't fully understand the GeoFilter option. But it doesn't make sense I have the Saudi server whitelsited, and a Strict circle radius and I'm still from what it seems like connecting to US Servers. 😕 I do apologize if it seems like I'm all over the place. To make a long story short: 1) I feel like Geofilter isn't working because if it was, wouldn't I have like a 200 ping if I was connected to a server in Sadia Arabia?
Netduma Liam Posted March 12, 2021 Posted March 12, 2021 Welcome to the forum! The main reason that this isn't working for you is because you have Geo-filter set to spectating mode and not filtering mode, this means Geo-filter has no control over which server you connect to. However, as you're trying to force an incredibly distant server, you may still experience issues as Geo-filter isn't really designed to work this way.

I forgot to mention I did take these pictures with Spectating mode on, I was also trying to Whitelist a friend and the server in Saudi. :] Well I suppose that does make sense. I appreciate the quick reply. I'm gonna keep tinkering and toying with the XR300, it's a good little router. No issues with it so far. /thread
