SteadyPing resets to "On" after router reboot, tutorials show up on each login

I’m really liking my R3 so far.  Honestly, I was a bit on the fence as to whether I wanted to purchase the router as the only feature I was really interested in was the Geo-Filter.  I play a lot of MWIII and it has been increasingly frustrating to connect to servers that are nearly 1000 miles away when I have one that gives me 5ms ping regularly.  I was really debating, “do I want to spend 200 to just guarantee good servers?”. 

Well, I did, and it’s been great.  Every game is 10ms or less.  Sometimes the wait times are long but it’s good to know the deaths I encounter are due to my own lack of skill rather than connection.

A couple issues I’ve noted (in the title)

1)      The tutorial tours keep popping up every time I sign into the router via browser.  Minor, but annoying.

2)      Steadyping also resets to “On” every time the router is rebooted.  I have it turned off because I didn’t notice any jittering, and it turned my 5ms ping into 20ms.  I could use expert mode, but don’t really care too much.

3)      Dumaos/ ( the path on the card that came in the box ) doesn’t work anymore after initial login, and I have to use 192.168.77.1.  I thought I bricked the router after initial sign in.  Maybe I missed it somewhere, but I didn’t see that listed on any manual or anything in the box.

 

EDIT:  One more question - is it okay to have the router turned off every night?  It's connected to a power strip that is only used by my gaming devices ( I have two other routers in the house).  Just wanted to make sure it wouldn't get messed up on heat/power cycles or anything like that.

Do you have a cookie blocker on? or are you clearing your cookies?
I had mine on and for the first times I logged it ran it again then I set the R3 to my cookie white list and it does not ask now.

That must be it.  My cookies clear pretty much everytime my browser is closed.  Thanks!

Probably cookies for the tutorial. For Steady Ping not saving through a reboot we're aware of that and will get it resolved.

Haven't seen the dashboard issue for just dumaos though - what do you see when you try accessing it that way?

I wouldn't necessarily recommend turning it off every day, routers are designed to be always on and consume very little power

1) Yep, cookies was the issue for the tutorials.

2) "dumaos/" connected the first time I used it, and then stopped working after I set up the router with admin/password.  After that, 192.168.77.1 was the only way to connect which I only figured out after watching someones youtube video and seeing the link in their browser.  (https://youtu.be/stLMcmJSe2s?si=GIf9d6bVKvJMFmcv)  For the record, the R3 is connected to another "main" router.

3) Noted - I bought a separate power strip so the router doesn't shut off with the other appliances daily.  I figured it was made with being on 24/7 in mind.

Sorry for delay on this - didn't want to bother anyone on Christmas and it wasn't a pressing issue at all.

What does it show you when trying to use dumaos?

No worries at all, hope you had a great holiday season and Happy New Year!

Happy New year to you as well!  Very happy with my purchase BTW and have recommended it to my friends who game often.

 

EDIT:  Some extra detail - I cleared cookies and I am not logged into the router when trying to use dumaos/.  Even while logged in through 192.168.77.1 the dumaos/ does not work.  Just odd as it worked upon first boot, and then after setting up password it no longer works anymore.  Doesn't appear I am the only one either from the youtube link I posted previously.

Great to hear you're enjoying it. Try this link specifically, http://dumaos/dumaweb and see if that works

Same thing.  I'm using Firefox v121 + uBlock Origin with all filter lists enabled, but even on a browser reinstall with no extensions I am getting the same error.  Router has latest firmware 4.0.21.

It doesn't seem like a huge issue (to me at least) but it was so weird how dumaos/ worked perfectly for the first logon and only changed to 192.168.77.1 after setting up the admin name and password.  Have you guys tried reaching out to the dude in the video?  I think he has a partnership with you or something as he was able to snag an R3 early.  I'm not the most tech savvy so apologies if I am providing bad info.

EDIT:  I tried http and https for dumaos/ and http://dumaos/dumaweb and both did not work.  I tried turning off HTTPS only mode in firefox as well.

Right click the page, then go to Inspect (Element), on the window that appears click on the Console tab. Refresh the page then provide a screenshot of what the console window shows please when using dumaos to access

That's all I'm seeing.  Nothing really appears in the console upon refresh.

If you minimize the get dumaos entry does nothing else appear?

Nothing else appears.

I've tested in Edge and dumaos/ works.  I think it's a firefox error (I noticed from blocked by devtools in the SS).  Seems like a firefox issue, but I have no idea why it worked the first time then.
