Cod servers.

Is it possible for me to play on overseas servers in Bops6, I was able to do it on MW3 but when trying to play on overseas servers now it just keeps putting me on eu servers.

In theory yes but I know they have made some changes when they referenced VPNs so if you're getting a much higher ping then it may prevent it happening.

Could you provide a screenshot of what you see on the Geo-Filter page when that happens please?

Hi fraser

i appreciate the response..before your reply  I rebooted the modem and loaded into a game of plunder and it loaded me into a server that I wanted.. again thanks… 

I do have another question if you don’t mind helping me out… I’ve recently switched my internet provider and upgraded to fibre, I’m paying for 900mb upload and download but when I do a speed test through the netduma it’s only giving me around 150 and 90.. I’m using cat8 Ethernet cables, any idea what could be the problem ? 
thanks 

gary.

Good to hear! On the router speedtest it uses a provider that doesn't always pick the closest server to you and so can provide unreliable results. Do you get your expected speeds through speedtest.net after setting your speeds manually? If so you can ignore the router speed results, it won't be limiting you at all.

So this is weird, I did a test through my internet provider app and I’m getting 949/949 upload download… then I did a test on Speedtest.net through netduma on wifi and got 94 download then Speedtest.net again but on my internet provider wifi connection and got 175, I’ve also done a test through my ps5 without my netduma set up and I get 900+  I’m not tech savvy so I don’t have a clue what could be the reason for them to be so different.

Could be a few things, the speedtest.net server being used is similar to the above, however you can change this so check it's one of the closest to you. The other thing could be that the cable connecting the R3 to the modem is limited, in which case try swapping out the cable, even if it is the one we provided and check again. Test over ethernet if you can ideally.

Otherwise for WiFi try this:

• Split the WiFi bands, give 2.4/5GHz different names and apply - you'll want to connect to 5GHz specifically for speeds
• Use a WiFi analyzer to find the least congested channel and change to that
• Experiment with the widths to see what gives better results
• Ensure it's in an elevated position - not on a metal surface
• Ensure there aren't any electrical / wireless devices e.g headphones etc within close proximity ~3 feet if possible
• Set the antennae to this position _ | | _
