Albeno Posted August 22, 2024 Share Posted August 22, 2024 Hey my netduma r3 router arrives today. I currently have the eero pro 6e mesh system with a 8 port Ethernet unmanaged switch. I would still like to use the eeros for WiFi coverage throughout my home. How would i configure the netduma with the eeros? My internet uses fiber ont. would I hook the netduma to my fiber ont , turn WiFi off on netduma, and then hook the eero up via Ethernet to the netduma and put eero in bridge mode?

Fuzy Posted August 22, 2024 Share Posted August 22, 2024 Yes, this is what will be best, because all of your devices will go through the R3 and you will have greater wifi coverage with the mesh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albeno Posted August 22, 2024 Author Share Posted August 22, 2024 Hey my eeros that will be connected to the r3 have Ethernet ports on the back. Can I plug my gaming pc directly into the eero Ethernet port or do I need to plug the pc directly to the netduma r3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted August 22, 2024 Administrators Share Posted August 22, 2024 You can do but most likely the R3 won't see the PC specifically so if you want to use it with the Geo-Filter etc it would be best to connect it direct to the R3.

Albeno Posted August 23, 2024 Author Share Posted August 23, 2024 so far everything is running smooth. It was easy to setup. i got the eeros connected to netduma in bridge mode. is it normal to get this message when running ping optimizer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted August 23, 2024 Administrators Share Posted August 23, 2024 Great to hear! If it thinks the ping is optimal then yes. It can change depending on the time of day so try it again at another time and it may provide different results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albeno Posted August 23, 2024 Author Share Posted August 23, 2024 what ports should i open on pc for call of duty mw3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted August 23, 2024 Administrators Share Posted August 23, 2024 It's completely different for everyone but it's not abnormal if it can't be improved at that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted August 23, 2024 Administrators Share Posted August 23, 2024 You don't need to open any ports specifically if you have an open NAT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albeno Posted August 23, 2024 Author Share Posted August 23, 2024 it was moderate but i made my pc dmz and it turned open Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted August 23, 2024 Administrators Share Posted August 23, 2024 Do not put your PC in the DMZ that is a major security risk, I'd highly suggest you remove it immediately. Look up the ports needed for the game and add them instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
