Will my R3 still work with isp's router?

Hi, 

Just a general question. I'm thinking of switching isp's to an isp that actually has gaming packages which prioritizes gaming traffic on their network. They unfortunately install a router on-site that also has QOS protocols running and its a must to use their router as their configs according to them to get the best performace. Its a tp-link router that they install, i dont have the model number yet. If i should connect my r3 into their router, would i still benefit from the r3's ping stabelizer, congestion control, and geo-filter or would it cause some kind of "clash/conflict"?

So the only thing that would struggle is Congestion Control - assuming you don't have all devices connected to the R3. If you do connect ALL devices to the R3 and have the R3 in the ISP router DMZ for example then there wouldn't be any issues.

Awesome, so you suggest I rather connect all devices to the R3 to have full control of the congestion on my network? I guess I could just connect my R3 to the isp's router and just test it out for a while. My only fear is not having a use for the R3 after only owning it for a month but im so desperate to get away from my current isp, not even the powerful R3 can improve my current experience with my isp.

That's what I'd suggest yes. Regardless of the ISP router you use you won't be able to force the servers so you'll have a use for the Geo-Filter at the very least but there are more exciting features coming so always worth holding on to!
