Modem -> Asus Router -> Netduma R2

[JamesFPS]

Hi, I have my R2 arriving tomorrow and was wondering on how to set it up.

I plan to keep my existing setup of Modem -> Asus Router providing the whole house with internet, and then connect the R2 to the Asus Router to just take advantage of the geofilter, ping heatmap etc when i game.

I am aware that I will lose functionality such as QOS.

So I assume that I will need to wire the Asus Router to the R2 via ethernet, and then perhaps login to the R2 router URL and complete setup that way? Is there anything specific I need to know that will help me getting everything working smoothly?

(I am not talking about geofilter settings, just getting everything connected with the modem -> router -> R2 scenario)

Thanks for your time

That's exactly how to do it yes. The only thing I would recommend is to put the R2 WAN IP that you can find on the System Information page on the interface, once you've completed the setup wizard and input that into the Asus DMZ so that you're gaming device can get an Open NAT while connected to the R2.
