Kylemck1 Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 In the past I would be able to block out servers outside the london and uk servers thus allowing for smoother gameplay (the whole reason i bought the router), and now ever since around a month ago ive not been able to connect to any local servers and have instead been constantly pushed to servers in Germany and france etc even with an outline drawn. Is there any reason for this? Ive not changed any of my settings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Liam Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Sorry to hear this, could you provide a screenshot of your Geo-filter settings so we can see if there's any amendments we'd suggest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylemck1 Posted May 20, 2021 Author Share Posted May 20, 2021 This is how i would set up in the past and find games in london with no problem whether that was player to player or direct to the london server, lately ive just been getting blocked servers from outside the radius, ive not been able to connect to london once, ping assist is off aswell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted May 20, 2021 Administrators Share Posted May 20, 2021 Delete one of the devices - I'm not even sure how you managed to add it twice to be honest. Is that what it will look like in game? Can you zoom out all the way and see if there is anything else appearing on the map please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh they are both two different devices (a ps4 and a ps5) but i had the same issue with just one device, there is also nothing else appearing on the map as per picture. This is really weird the router was perfect and all of a sudden has started acting this way, i think its only me with the issue aswell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted May 20, 2021 Administrators Share Posted May 20, 2021 Can you provide the ID of the server that is appearing blocked please? Then we can check it out and see whether it needs to be allowed or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted May 21, 2021 Administrators Share Posted May 21, 2021 So they are: 1st Normal game server in Netherlands 2nd AWS paris 3rd Amazon Germany It's possible that allowing the second in Paris might be needed. Do you ever see a server with a solid white circle around it in the EU when searching? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylemck1 Posted May 21, 2021 Author Share Posted May 21, 2021 Yeah i see one around wales and one on the edge of france like both around once every 15 searches but even in these games the gameplay is no where near as good as the london server, its strange aswell because i come up against london players sometimes when using ethernet without netduma but never really with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted May 21, 2021 Administrators Share Posted May 21, 2021 If they have a solid white circle around them they will be authentication servers not game servers so they won't impact your ping. Could you re-sync the cloud in the Map menu and if you get a too long message, wait 1 minute then refresh the page and see whether filtering is better.

Kylemck1 Posted May 21, 2021 Author Share Posted May 21, 2021 Sorry not too familiar with server stuff, what is an authentication server? Is that a good thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted May 21, 2021 Administrators Share Posted May 21, 2021 Authentication server is just a server they use to check you're connected to the online service, a paying customer etc. If you have one of those something else will be appearing as a host, if you don't have one appearing that could indicate why you're not getting a game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
