Stobbee Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 Hi, Netduma R3 just arrived and I already noticed that geo filter in simple mode is not working, I’m in Italy and I set the filter in Europe and I found a game in Arabia Saudita and another one in China. another issue is that when using the polygon mode and dumaOS is filtering right, I never get the ping of the server, it always says “couldn’t ping the server”. R3 came out of the box with firmware 4.0.19. Any fix for these issues? thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stobbee Posted December 21, 2023 Author Share Posted December 21, 2023 Yesterday I tried to reboot the R3 and the game as well but it didn’t fix the issues. I’ll try again tonight. “ You can also disable Geo-Latency which will allow you to filter exclusively like the original Geo-Filter.” Can you please explain this? It’s not clear to me the difference between geo latency and geo filter. Is the geofilter always active when you disable geo latency? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cedric108 Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 In my case, with geo latency enabled, simple mode works better than custom mode, I would say the custom mode doesn’t work at all. But with geo latency disabled, it works suddenly much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tested 3 games in MW3 with geo latency disabled, it’s a small sample size, but yes, it does filter inside the circle. I even made a change to the circle during this game session, it worked. However, with geo latency enabled, the result became inconsistent, sometimes the router shows I was connecting to a server in Los Angeles, but in reality I was connected to a local server in Europe and servers outside the circle were not denied. I have Ping Assist disabled. Stobbee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 21, 2023 Administrators Share Posted December 21, 2023 Geo-Latency is essentially a way of filtering servers by ping, everything outside your radius will have a high ping, thereby forcing servers within your radius instead. We have identified some issues with it that will be fixed. With it disabled it will be like the original version of the Geo-Filter that works by allowing everything inside the radius (location based) and exclude everything outside. The Geo-Filter will be active if you have a device added that has filtering enabled. cedric108 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stobbee Posted December 23, 2023 Author Share Posted December 23, 2023 8 hours ago, Netduma Fraser said: I've sent you a PM, see if Geo-Latency works better after that Is it possible to deny a server directly from ping heatmap? It would be very useful instead to wait until you get that server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're looking into merging the Geo and Heatmap together but would take some time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
