Trcmugentyper Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 I've been using this router for 2 weeks now and it's no better than my Verizon fios isp modem slash router. I bought the xr1000 to help with bullet registration cuz alot of my shots dont register especially playing against high onyx and champs and playing against south American players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Liam Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Welcome to the forum! Sorry to hear this, your configuration looks good although one thing I would suggest would be to reduce the size of your search radius, you'll be playing on a very wide variety of servers with this and the ping could vary quite a lot. If you're unsure how small you can get away with, use Ping Heatmap to identify your closest 3-4 servers. Let us know if you have any further questions!

Trcmugentyper Posted July 16, 2021 Author Share Posted July 16, 2021 I made it smaller like you said but kept getting thrown into a Texas server higher ping on auto ping for over 5 games in a row Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted July 16, 2021 Administrators Share Posted July 16, 2021 You need to put Ping Assist to 0 and then it will adhere to your radius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trcmugentyper Posted July 16, 2021 Author Share Posted July 16, 2021 Ok will do . How do I improve bullet registration no Matter which server I connect to? I've played against players last night and they had their bullets register every match no matter which server we connected to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trcmugentyper Posted July 16, 2021 Author Share Posted July 16, 2021 Right now I'm playing on a 165hz monitor playing halo 5 a 60fps game and the only way I can get my bullets to count is to play 120hz on a locked game of 60hz and play with freesync on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted July 16, 2021 Administrators Share Posted July 16, 2021 Restricting to your radius should help a lot, what does Ping Heatmap say the lowest ping server to you is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trcmugentyper Posted July 20, 2021 Author Share Posted July 20, 2021 Heres my ping heatmap for halo 5. There are never servers in those areas that have lowest ping. I need help. My shot dont register. I tried putting the circle in the middle of the ocean as small as possible and ping assist set to 0. Tried with auto ping host on and off no luck.i play against south Americans and they eat shots all the time with their high latency. How can I counter that?

Trcmugentyper Posted July 20, 2021 Author Share Posted July 20, 2021 When I set my restrictions to strict then I cant find games. Halo 5 is almost at the end of its life cycle with halo infinite coming out the end of the year so there's barely ppl on. I just want my bullets to register better than my isp router connecting to whatever server. Which right now its not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trcmugentyper Posted July 20, 2021 Author Share Posted July 20, 2021 Here r pretty much all the halo 5 servers that pop up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Liam Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 When you have your radius set around the two servers that provide low ping, and ping assist set to 0, are you able to get a game? What is the average ping of the servers you're getting connected to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trcmugentyper Posted July 20, 2021 Author Share Posted July 20, 2021 When I have my radius set to east coast US closest servers are in Virginia and I rarely find games. Average ping is 11ms. It either backs out and doesn't let me find a game or takes me to a server to south middle US where ping is about 44ms. Some servers In my server that are 11 ping are also laggy and over lap with other servers when they pop up in the same area of the circle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trcmugentyper Posted July 20, 2021 Author Share Posted July 20, 2021 Heres 1 game I had good hit detection but then the 3 games following this game my shots wouldn't register when I shot ppl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trcmugentyper Posted July 20, 2021 Author Share Posted July 20, 2021 If I set me geo filter to strict with ping assist to 0 it doesn't let me find games. Since population is so low Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted July 20, 2021 Administrators Share Posted July 20, 2021 If the population is low then you will need to expand the radius to find more servers, there is not really much we can do about that unfortunately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trcmugentyper Posted July 20, 2021 Author Share Posted July 20, 2021 Ok with auto ping host on or off? And ping assist 0 or 30-50? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted July 20, 2021 Administrators Share Posted July 20, 2021 Auto Ping is personal preference - all it does it automatically ping the host for you, if it's disabled then you would need to ping the host yourself. Try Ping Assist at 0 first, then you can move it up if you're still struggling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trcmugentyper Posted July 20, 2021 Author Share Posted July 20, 2021 Ok 1 more question. Is this better than just putting my home location in the middle of the ocean with radius as small as possible with with this settings or just keeping it in my original location?

Trcmugentyper Posted July 20, 2021 Author Share Posted July 20, 2021 Also to battle lag compensation playing against south American players with higher ping what settings u recommend I use so that I can have a fair advantage against them . I dont not wanna play against them just want a fair advantage that my shots will count when shooting high ping players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Liam Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 I know it's not the best answer but it's honestly a case of trial and error to find out what works best for you, your location and the games you play. Unfortunately that's not something I can definitively say one thing is better than the other. With regards to lag compensation, it's very hard to prove or disprove it's effect, though some users say they prefer to go for servers around 30-40ms ping to put them on a level playing field.

Netduma Liam Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 I'm not sure what magnifying glass you're referring to? You can Zoom in and out on the map by using the slider in the bottom left of the map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trcmugentyper Posted July 21, 2021 Author Share Posted July 21, 2021 I can't zoom into my specific area that I have with my circle. It just zooms into the center of the map Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
