I'm lucky to have a couple servers available to me that are sub 20 ping, so I have a small radius that covers these two servers.

Occasionally I feel like there's some lag compensation though, so when that happens I force servers around 30-40 ping and that seems to level the playing field.

Delete device in Geofilter and remove pre-existing settings.

Resync cloud.

Set device as Games Console/Playstation/Xbox in Device Manager.

Go back to Geofilter and add device and select filter manually.

The problem with this is that DPI does not work correctly for Traffic Priortization. Correct me if I am wrong @Netduma Liam @Netduma Jack

@ggkthx you can use the CoD service for the Geo-Filter which is what the OP is referring to, I personally recommend setting it to console though. 

For DPI on PC there may be more work needed there but it should be detected

@Netduma Fraser You mean select Call of Duty (PC only)?

It doesn't let me go into filtering mode if I select that.

I find that there isn't as much upload/download packets if I change device to computer.

You can do yes, is that on the R1 it won't allow you to select?

I'm on the XR500.

 

That's what happens when I select device type as computer in device manager and select Call of Duty (PC only) in geofilter.

Thanks for that, I think on some routers it can still be filtered so you're doing the right thing no worries!

I'm confused. What was I doing correctly? 🤣

Device type > Computer and Geo-Filter > Call of Duty (PC Only)

or

Device type > Console and Geo-Filter > Manual Filtering

Just tested it again and this doesn't do any filtering.

I get connected to servers where my latency is as high as 80-100ms.

[Netduma Fraser]

I mean switching to console you're doing the right thing. On some routers you should be able to switch it to Filtering mode but for yours keep it as console

Alright.

Moving forward, will there be a fix to stick to PC and use Geo-Filter as the above solution  impacts DPI as well.
