Rickyrocks Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Hi just wondering why i have packet loss also when my geo filter is in spectating mode i still cant see my friends in the party also my peer icon is never accurate if im right Halo is peer host when playing social as it only shows peer connection it seems its not dedicated when in social or custom.

Where are you seeing high packet loss? Do you use QoS? The icon you're seeing in Geo-filter is probably a chat server, even if it shows a peer icon. Which Halo are you playing? Very few games are still peer-to-peer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickyrocks Posted September 16, 2021 Author Share Posted September 16, 2021 yes i do use QoS seeing it on xbox series x and playing H5 i took the xbox of static and it there was no packet loos as soon as i played a game started to teleport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 16, 2021 Administrators Share Posted September 16, 2021 What is the average ping as shown by the Geo-Filter and in game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickyrocks Posted September 17, 2021 Author Share Posted September 17, 2021 ok guys sins i done this new update people are teleporting and i am getting crazy packet loss on Xbox series X i have had engineer round and all been installed new and no luck i also noticed putting xbox into static is not good for the geo filter can i ask why it doesn't even show on device as an Xbox when in static instead i done a reservation should i be doing this instead also should i use open setting on the nat filter section in wan settings seems like refreshing UPnP does work but on for while I just put up these setting a little and seeing improvements after 6 tests o packet loss will give you update to see if its worked also can you let me know if i am ok doing this .......ok afte 8 test i got packet loss of 1% again .

Netduma Liam Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 1% packet loss is within the margin of error, how are the games playing? Do they feel OK? Are people teleporting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickyrocks Posted September 17, 2021 Author Share Posted September 17, 2021 i be honest i am not having a good time on halo 5 and i am a high skill player been getting bullet lag allot but i have been doing all different types of testing and the one i have had most success is using ethernet port 2 and for some reason i very rarely get any packet loss but on the others its mostly 1% and yes people teleport and i have had engineers round and all testing fine .

Rickyrocks Posted September 17, 2021 Author Share Posted September 17, 2021 will have to confirm but from what i can see its faulty ports i have changes cable and distance and same packet loss of 1% and 4% etc also had 70% at one time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you currently have QoS configured? Can you send over a screenshot perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 17, 2021 Administrators Share Posted September 17, 2021 Where are you measuring the packet loss exactly? What is the average ping shown by the Geo-Filter and the game? Best to set a static/reserved IP on the router, not the device. If you have an Open NAT already there is no need to change any NAT related settings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickyrocks Posted September 17, 2021 Author Share Posted September 17, 2021 Reserving the Mac address is best as the router recognizes the Xbox with its name This is the ping in my Customs Halo 5 i guess its peer and why am i in Holland. or is it the Holland dedicated i dnt think so ! lowest ping is the average Just to let you know 1% packet loss is big in Halo5 im in port 2 and dnt get packet loss all-most at all so why are my ports broken and who going to sort them out lol So been searching in social and this is what it looks like just done a factory reset also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't appear on the map so it will be the server you're connected to. Where are you viewing the packet loss? If the ports were broken they wouldn't work at all, it wouldn't be 1% packet loss.

Rickyrocks Posted September 17, 2021 Author Share Posted September 17, 2021 on xbox is where im getting packet loss and i have had 70% packet loss also its not dedicated it says peer whats the best way to reduce packet loss For Xbox series X Why is it doing that says im in USA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickyrocks Posted September 17, 2021 Author Share Posted September 17, 2021 the geo filter is so random mind of its own what is that in USA when I'm in UK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 17, 2021 Administrators Share Posted September 17, 2021 On the Xbox network settings? If so that's just the packet loss to the authentication server and won't affect your game connection. The server in the US with the circle with it is an authentication server required for online play, it won't affect the game, the servers in the EU will be the game servers.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 17, 2021 Administrators Share Posted September 17, 2021 The screenshot shows it is connecting to those authentication servers for Xbox Live, whatever they're using for the test etc. The packet loss there is fine, it's for the connection to the authentication server - basically the server that says are they connected to XBL and that's it. It's completely separate to your game servers and will not impact you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
