meck1 Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 hi! i have the netduma r3 that i bought to play (love it) i followed the netduma youtube settings step by step my issue is that when i play alone i get really good ping but when i play with friends i get really bad ping usually is around 15-22ping. anybody know the best settings for ps5? also when i connect with friends my geo filter will connect to their server instead of others and my connnection suffers alot to where i cant even play right(mw3) even though i would block the servers from connecting and have my settings to strict mode or is there a way to add my friends to my geo filter without them suffering ? sometimes i host to play online but my friend suffers with ping (he gets 60-80 ping) when he normally gets 30 ping or less and he has 1gig fiber i have frontier 300mb fiber internet should i upgrade my internet to 1 gig or is there a way to party with friends without my ping suffering?

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted May 26 Administrators Share Posted May 26 15-22 is a really good ping still. Where are you located approximately and where are they located? How do you have your Geo-Filter setup and what game are you playing? Zli 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted May 27 Administrators Share Posted May 27 That explains it then, you're at opposite ends of the country - the game will be trying to find a middle ground so based on whatever settings you have it'll be getting the closest middle server hence raising your ping a little. They're getting a high ping because they're being forced to connect to a server closer to you than them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted May 27 Administrators Share Posted May 27 That's just physics, there is no way around it - I'd suggest putting your location/radius over central US so you both have a higher ping but neither one of you has to have a really high ping so its more balanced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted May 27 Administrators Share Posted May 27 Smoother in what sense? SmartBOOST & Congestion Control should be used to eliminate any local congestion so your ping stays low Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
