Niccolo91 Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 The reason I am buying the router is due to EA’s NHL22 on Xbox .The issue I have is that there are two servers in the NE that I can possibly connect to. There is a server in Montreal that is 400 miles away and there is a server in Virginia outside Washington DC that is 300 miles away. The game always connects me to the Montreal one that is further away and I experience a noticeable delay especially when I play people who are in Ontario or Quebec province. I would like to connect to the Virginia server only. Is this something I can do with geofiltering? Also, when not playing that specific game on my Xbox can I turn off geofiltering easily? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted February 11, 2022 Administrators Share Posted February 11, 2022 Hey, welcome to the forum! We haven't specifically tested the game as far as I'm aware but it should work so yes in theory you would be able to force that server. Yes you can enable/disable the Geo-Filter very easily.

raf1212 Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 @Niccolo91if I were you, I would wait for another software because I read that users have a lot of problems with xr1000 as well as with xr500 robert27841 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to counter some of the negative posts, I have had an XR1000 now for about six months and have yet only encountered minor issues. I am sure that forums like this one are hounded by people who have specific application problems but those people are in very small numbers.

Thanks in advance. I'm a XR1000 owner and the firmware support at this time is NOT EXISTING. The last time they released the update was in July 2021, it was full of bugs from day one. There is an obvious problem with software support. Everybody should stay away from this model for now. Numo36, raf1212 and robert27841 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has been awhile since new firmware has been available, shouldn't be much longer before another version is released. Apart from the UPnP issue which is more visual there hasn't been many recurring themes from what I can see. If you're having an issue please make a topic and we'll be happy to help. raf1212 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DHCP! I have been waiting for 12 months now for a firmware update to fix the DHCP issues. Sorry but 12 months is more then enough time for a company to fix an urgent issue like this.

Fuzy Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 what do you mean by dhcp problem? that the xr1000 does not automatically assign an ip to your downstream machines? if so, you can manually assign them outside the range of dhcp to make sure port forwarding is working properly.
