Topher264 Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Hello, As the title states, I am having a bit of difficulty with the Geo-Filtering feature of my XR1000 router. I am new to using this particular OS, so bear with me, but I wanted to test this feature out, so I set my location (allowed location) to the middle of the ocean, distance at 300km, and ping assist at 0 (to not connect to any Warzone server), yet I was still loaded into a game @35ms ping. Wanting to test it further, I set my location to Spain (pinged at 100ms) and connected to a game @35-40ms, and the great majority of the lobby was American, if not all. I correctly selected my PC and the game as "Call of Duty", and made sure that Filtering Mode was enabled as well. What I found strange was the fact that no icons would populate the map displayed in Chrome, maybe indicating that the router isn't detecting the fact that I'm connecting to CoD servers? Ping heatmap populates as expected... if that matters So far, I have tried restarting my PC, restarting the router, resetting the router, updating the firmware, clearing cache/cookies, and using both FireFox and MS Edge as browsers. Attached are screenshots of the heatmap and geo-filter as I have it set now. Any help is appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you! - Following these steps unfortunately still yielded nothing on the Geo-Filter map... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topher264 Posted August 7, 2022 Author Share Posted August 7, 2022 Update - Re-installed the latest firmware and reboot seemed to work for me! I bought the unit pre-owned so I wouldn't be surprised if the previous owner played with the settings a bit too much LOL! Netduma Fraser 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
