Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 30, 2021 Administrators Share Posted December 30, 2021 Put Ping Assist to 0, reboot the console then search again Derek2626 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek2626 Posted December 30, 2021 Author Share Posted December 30, 2021 Got one or two games connected to peers in UK, still connecting to USA dedicated servers however Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 30, 2021 Administrators Share Posted December 30, 2021 Do this and it will work: Quit the application/game/client completely Remove device from the Geo-Filter Give PC PlayStation Device Type in the Device Manager (if on PC) Resync from the Geo-Filter Map menu Re-add the device to the Geo-Filter with the manual option Set up the Geo-Filter how you like - Ping Assist 0, Fast Search Off, Strict Mode On Wait 2 minutes Boot up application/game/client Anything appearing in the US after that will be an authentication server required for online play.

Derek2626 Posted December 30, 2021 Author Share Posted December 30, 2021 14 minutes since I’ve last posted, could only get into a game with the filter off I’m in Boston Ma and keep connecting to Illinois servers, no idea what’s up with This router Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 30, 2021 Administrators Share Posted December 30, 2021 Looks like the filter was off in that screenshot or you need to follow the steps again as that won't happen if you follow them to the T - you have to set it before the game/client is on. The idea is to get you the lowest ping servers, not force ones in different countries - you can do so but it will take longer and the ping will be higher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek2626 Posted December 30, 2021 Author Share Posted December 30, 2021 I was trying different countries because I feel like my connection is too good and get destroyed by lag comp…my usual servers in NY that are low ping aren’t even on my heat map, even after resync Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 31, 2021 Administrators Share Posted December 31, 2021 Servers can fail to ping on heatmap, we can update that but you'll still be able to connect to them using the Geo-Filter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek2626 Posted December 31, 2021 Author Share Posted December 31, 2021 I did what you said to a T…and did it again to a T, still connecting to some random server in Illinois even though I located my self in the UK…I’m done with this router haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 1, 2022 Administrators Share Posted January 1, 2022 If you haven't allowed them yourself then they're authentication servers required for online play and will not impact your gameplay experience at all. In both screenshots the biggest icon in Europe is the game server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comp0za Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 I'm having this issue as well, I was trying to force the CoD Vanguard to play only on one dedicated serve in Europe, but it still connecting to USA servers as well. This started to happen yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
