RobertS29 Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 Ever since I’ve hooked up my R3, my latency on my series X has doubled from Low 20s to high 50s. Just wondering if there’s some troubleshooting I can try? Download and upload speeds have been good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARKNESS Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 If your using steady ping that maybe the cause why your ping seems high you can disable and see if there are any changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 2 Administrators Share Posted January 2 The above could be a reason, other than that where are you measuring the ping? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertS29 Posted January 2 Author Share Posted January 2 On cod mw3. I have the feature on where it shows latency in game. With the R3 disconnected I’m around 22-24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 2 Administrators Share Posted January 2 It'll be Steady Ping, disable that and it will be lower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertS29 Posted January 2 Author Share Posted January 2 Are you referring to “ping optimizer”? I don’t see anything that says steady ping on my app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With this R3 my NAT type is now moderate and it says double NAT detected? Not sure if that affects anything but prior to this router I was open Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 3 Administrators Share Posted January 3 You'll need to copy the WAN IP from Settings > WAN and put that in the DMZ on your ISP modem/router. Make sure then that ALL devices are connected to the R3. That will help with ping as well. Are you using Congestion Control in Ping Optimizer > Advanced? As that will eliminate local congestion and keep your ping low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my latency is still high which I’m not understanding why it’s higher then the modem from my ISP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spdsk8race Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 When you reboot the R3, steady ping turns back on automatically, make sure to go back in and disable it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IIDoomSlayerII Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 I thought the latency in game is -10ms off to get your actual ping ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What settings are you using for Congestion Control now? Yup it’s been off. Congestion control is was just changed from auto - always on. With no improvement. Is the R3 just not a good fit with my Xfinity modem? It’s the latest one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gave my DOCSIS 3.1 modem to my gf's parents for her little brother, then hooked them up with some mesh wi-fi ap's for christmas and they have had way better bandwidth and latency compared to comcraps modem/router combo.

I’m not against doing that. I’m just confused to why my comcast modem by itself is giving me better numbers then my R3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be the that the way the comcast modem is sending data to the router could be causing a backup in data tbh. Not all devices play well with one another, so all the more reason to get a stand alone modem and let the R3 run your network. Highly recommend either the Netgear CM1000, Arris S33 or the Motorola MB8611. All three of those are more than compatible with Comcast and you should see much better latency as those all in ones are designed for ease of replacement and have super short shelf life lol.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 5 Administrators Share Posted January 5 What percentages are you using specifically for Congestion Control and do you notice any difference after adjusting them? We usually suggest starting at 70% and experimenting from there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
