Stilts29 Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Hi, tried new 0.41 and gaming a little bit on it. Hit detection seemed pretty good still. I still have A+ BB score but did notice jitter was slightly higher than normal (2ms). Also the mean ping was great (6ms) but max ping was greater 20 on download and 40 on upload. Not sure how much this translates to gaming to notice. Had some questions on Geofilter and stable ping if someone can answer so I know I have my expectations correct. So for games that use peer to peer connections for PVP arranged by Steam matchmaking I can nearly always get connected to the London server which is great. But: 1. Can Geofilter stop servers outside its range being selected as part of the matchmaking or is that unable to be bypassed. I currently see servers showing as white dots outside the geofence area. I have denied access to most of these servers, allowing only French and Dutch servers. 2. Stable ping has worked a couple of times for peer to peer PVP games like Destiny 2, but is that only when I am lucky enough to be the host? or can stable ping work on all the other peer to peer connections. Settings are: Geofilter (strict ON, Geolatency ON, ping assist OFF) Steady Ping On (Simple mode) Geofence around the UK only. Hope that makes sense.

Cheers Ok so quick update I restarted R3 and tried another game of Destiny. Connected to London host and only Amsterdam was allowed. Connection to London stabilised too. Can I expect this all the time? Also MW3 was a great connection always connected to London with reasonable ping even with PO set to simple. I think this version has improved GF and PO for me anyways.

Not for me unfortunately, I think PPoE speed issues are being looked into separately. This build was for GF and PO I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The notes say Ping Optimizer should work better in the next version. TheTerpinator710 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damiano Calafiore Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 la velocità del dowloand in ppoe/vlan per banda larga è stata corretta?con la versione 0.40 eravamo ancora sul 45% circa di rilevazione nei vari test !c è da sistemare in dhcp l incompatibilità con alcuni router,i dati ping e il grafico non vengono rilevati ,sennò è inutile il router da gaming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdreams2 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 8 hours ago, euphidra said: @Netduma Alex Thanks Alex. I'm waiting for the VPN. As soon as it's ready, could you send me the firmware. Every time the router is restarted (even with this firmware 4.0.41) the smartphone's wifi is connected but after a while it is connected without internet (the smartphone still navigates but the wifi icon has an exclamation mark). I attach photos. This problem has been happening since Samsung updated Galaxy S21FE to Android 14 ONE UI 6. Same thing happens with Galaxy S24 ULTRA. Do you have another router connected to same network that might have Smart DHCP enabled because I had this problem before and I disabled this feature because somehow it altered the dns host for some reason. try google dns by going Settings - Connections - Wi-Fi click the gear icon next to SSID "NetdumaR3_5Ghz" from there click View more - IP settings: set to Static and then change your DNS 1 to 8.8.8.8 if it doesn't work try different ip address like 192.168.77.200 you can use this ip if you didn't change netduma settings euphidra 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had'nt thought to try out PO with this new version until earlier this evening and it worked great got ping for Up and DL down to under 10. The Geofilter has also been working excellent this evening and had some of the best gaming I have ever had this evening. If the wifi signal can be made stronger and get the speeds up then the R3 is seriously living up to my expectations. YT_LowPingKing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsNCo Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 5 hours ago, Dean.L said: it sems that this .41 fw has made my connecton worse the buffer bloat is the same as my xr500 stats maybe even worse the max numers are way to high and gaming on .41 is trash all i get is hit markers no kills and die with in 2 i dont get it the fw b4 was fine and .23 was fine yet the newer fw judt dosent wanna play ball I had the same experience as you until I rebooted the router. Every time I reboot, there will 2 things that I'll need to change again because the settings doesn't stick. They are, Disable Steady Ping and Disable Speedtest Bypass. Now I redid the bufferbloat test. As for CC, I set it to Auto which in the Speed Settings, were set to (for my own ISP) 1Gbps up and down. The difference in the bufferbloat test between 'Low Latency Only' and 'Auto' in CC Modes makes a big difference in the ping when download or upload is active. 'Auto' gives me very close speeds to 'Low Latency Only' while giving me very low ping. So what I would recommend is to set it to 'Auto' and then reboot the router, and then Disable Speedtest Bypass & Steady Ping (if you so wish). Then redo your Bufferbloat test. The results should be a lot better. It is for me at least. DOGGAVELI 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iOrcus Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 @Netduma Alex does this update fix the issue with Geo-Filter trying to connect me to blocked servers? It also takes me 5-8 minutes to finds games now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARKNESS Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 @TheTerpinator710You don't need Ping optimizer you can set your cc manually and bypass the bug pal and if you want to do it professionally use Pingplotter to perfect your QOS/CC as ping optimizer isn't bullet proof it just uses an algorithm from mlab test and for different connections it may not even be optimal/accurate.

JustinW Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Hello looks like CPU usage is back up after updating not sure if anyone else is seeing this as well. After reboot all is good now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyAu Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Ping Optimiser (Full Test / Expert Mode) coming back with Upload throttle: 100% / Download throttle: 99% on a 96Mbps down / 33 Mbps up connection; that seem reasonable?? Bufferbloat Grade came back as a 'D'. 🤣 (With Congestion Control set to 'Always On' & Speed Test Bypass 'Off' while testing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

satinghostrider Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Great results on the new firmware with Bufferbloat. 62.5% UP/DOWN for Congestion Control for my 1000/1000 Fibre connection. Wifi also seems marginally faster and more consistent. Gaming I have yet to try, will update. iOrcus, Alex49H, VeeDot and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idvizual Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 So far so great could use almost my full speeds on bufferbloat then the last firmwares and geo filter has been consistent with staying stabilized aswell. I've used ping optimizer with past firmware wasn't to great still got bufferbloat and not a good grade on the waveform test but it's all good now optimized ping A+ with geo filter. Awesomeness.. got called a cheater today in multiple lobbies cause hit detection is 👌 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
