anonymous_g-_- Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Right, how do I get the best out of the R2 running 2 PS4’s at the same time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Liam Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Are the two consoles playing together on the same game? If so, you can just add whichever is the host to Geo-filter. Similarly, DumaOS classified games will detect traffic from both consoles and prioritise them equally over other devices. Alternatively, you could add separate rules to Geo-filter for them and have them prioritised that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymous_g-_- Posted November 16, 2021 Author Share Posted November 16, 2021 No mate we don’t play online together. But we are both online at the same time. It’s like we are both robbing the bandwidth and slowing down the connection. How do we improve that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 16, 2021 Administrators Share Posted November 16, 2021 Try doing the above, disabling Classified Games and adding using the Games Console service but only add one, then see how it plays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 If you run 2 consoles you need to make sure uPNP is on. Say in CoD, if you use 2 consoles simultaneously they will have other port numbers assigned to them depending on which one logs in first. Then in traffic prioritization add both PS4's under service name game console. That prioritizes UDP traffic to both over the entire range. I would not go by specific numbers as you can't be sure which will end up sitting on what port number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymous_g-_- Posted November 28, 2021 Author Share Posted November 28, 2021 Do I run the auto setup while both PlayStations are on or off? For best results Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 2, 2021 Administrators Share Posted December 2, 2021 What speeds do you pay for/usually receive? Your base ping is very spiky and has packet loss, or it could be your connection to the Google servers. Where abouts are you located and what type of internet do you have?

anonymous_g-_- Posted December 2, 2021 Author Share Posted December 2, 2021 Yeah I see it was spiky. I’m located in March, Cambridgeshire. And I’m with sky atm on the copper cable dsl? I see there’s an option in the settings to allow remote access to tech support. Does that mean I can give you access to my router to give me the best possible?

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 2, 2021 Administrators Share Posted December 2, 2021 You should have a pretty good connection to the Google servers then so that is odd. Are ALL devices connected to the R2 or do you still have some connected to the Sky hub? Have you put the R2 in the DMZ of the R2? What speeds do you pay for/receive? What are your QoS settings currently? The remote support option is for devs to investigate serious bugs/issues, not to setup the router. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymous_g-_- Posted December 2, 2021 Author Share Posted December 2, 2021 I’ve got both PlayStations connected through Ethernet and tv. I get speeds between 10-20mbps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 2, 2021 Administrators Share Posted December 2, 2021 Okay so you need to update your bandwidth speeds because QoS won't be taking affect at all how it is setup currently, you can do this by clicking the icon in the top left of the Congestion Control panel, then QoS will be better. Also for the purposes of Connection Benchmark change Congestion Control to Always and then redo the test please and post the results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymous_g-_- Posted December 3, 2021 Author Share Posted December 3, 2021 Ok so what do I have to change my speeds to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 3, 2021 Administrators Share Posted December 3, 2021 The speeds you pay for/normally receive through the ISP modem/router Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymous_g-_- Posted December 9, 2021 Author Share Posted December 9, 2021 Right I did an auto detect on the network speeds and it came up with this. I pay for 23mbps according to sky. Shall I set it to that? 23mbps. Re run test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 9, 2021 Administrators Share Posted December 9, 2021 I'd suggest doing a speedtest.net test when you're directly connected to the hub/modem and see what you get then instead of going off these results purely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anonymous_g-_- Posted December 9, 2021 Author Share Posted December 9, 2021 This is my current network map. Is there anything I should change? Do I have to have every device connected solely to the netduma? And the only connection I should have from the modem is the netduma? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 9, 2021 Administrators Share Posted December 9, 2021 It does look like your inherent connection has an unstable ping which isn't anything we can resolve, that's down to the ISP. There is room for improvement on Ping Under Load so adjust Congestion Control percentages then retest and try to get the values lower so it looks more line the Ping Test. 5 minutes ago, anonymous_g-_- said: This is my current network map.

For an optimum setup yes that is what you need to do. Nothing you need to change on Device Manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymous_g-_- Posted December 9, 2021 Author Share Posted December 9, 2021 Ok so what do you advise with the percentages? Higher or lower? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 9, 2021 Administrators Share Posted December 9, 2021 It's hard to say as every connection is different, it is best to experiment but I would say if you can keep the percentages higher while seeing a reduction in Ping Under Load that would be best given your speeds are slower.
