Sgt-Greco Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 1. Why the same server may appear twice in my allow list but with different alphanumeric characters? 2. How can I access my providers modem which is behind my R3 ? 3. Is Ping Assist functioning as it should or we are waiting for a fix an if it does , do I have to factor in the steady ping extra value when I set it?

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 5 Administrators Share Posted January 5 There are many servers clustered together in the same location so it'll be two different servers in the same location If a router is connected behind the R3 you'd have to be directly connected to it to access or if it has the ability, enable access from WAN As far as I know it's working correctly. Steady Ping affects your ping once you've got a game so you don't need to do any factoring Sgt-Greco 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt-Greco Posted January 6 Author Share Posted January 6 Finally....Mainz server works for me. My in-game reading is 45-50. This is the absolute lowest latency I can get. But I can't believe what I'm reading.... 20 ms ?????? with a base ping of 50 and 2,500 km distance from the server ???? (I am in Athens, Greece)... It is impossible. Can this be a bug or something?

I mean I wouldn't have expected that low a ping at all but how does it play? Does it play like that is the ping you have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt-Greco Posted January 6 Author Share Posted January 6 It plays perfect (thanks to R3) but I've never seen such a low number all these years in COD except in the old p2p days. But as far as i know p2p is not implemented in MWIII TBH i don't think I can ping anything as far as 2,500 km away that can return such a low number.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 6 Administrators Share Posted January 6 Manually ping the server instead of allowing it to auto ping, do you get the same result? It could be the server is mislocated on the map Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt-Greco Posted January 6 Author Share Posted January 6 how do i find it's IP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 6 Administrators Share Posted January 6 I mean if you just click on the icon on the map to ping it instead. Actually though, the ID will be shown if you click on the ping graph or it'll show in the URL bar, if you provide that I can check the location Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says Blocked even though I've allowed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 7 Administrators Share Posted January 7 Yes that's it thank you. It does appear to be in Germany. You can't ping the IP directly as it will time out and similarly the same would happen with trace route but it'll trace the route up to a point so you can kind of guess at what the ping to it would be. Have a check: 95.179.249.150 Sgt-Greco 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
