I can't use steady ping and the Geo filter together?

Yes Steady Ping you can, that doesn't affect the way filtering works

Hi, so I had the same issue not finding servers inside fence, did the same disable geo latency and it didnt work and it gets stuck, it does not find any match, no mater if the game is on or off it stills tries to "connect" to some server 

 

Edit: it does not matter if I add the common servers it just get stucked also I don't want to play on high ping it's such a bad game experience

Have you got Ping Assist enabled? Are you enabling the Geo-Filter when you're already on the game or changing Geo-Filter settings while on the game?

Ping assist disable, no I am not, usually Y back out to the windows desktop to make changes not while on the game, I remember I posted this couple months ago but I factory reset my r3 once and since then I had to adjust my pc to a console on the device manager because it wasn't recognizing the servers and the geo filter is not working right, I've tried to factory reset it multiple times praying my 3k (that's the cost on my country $375) router works but unfortunately I just keep getting the same results. The servers I was looking or filtering did worked as I played in them after 2 hours of trying to connect or play I gave the party to my friend and instantly founded a match 1 in Florida (the servers I'm filtering) and the other one on Atlanta (the other server I added to try it out) so the servers where on and running at the time my router was not finding a match so is not the game tho...

Hi Fraser apologize for the late reply didn't have chance to test I tout until today, hope you doing great, I'm not an expert but it seems that after some matches geofilter gets "bricked" in some sort of loop, searching in the same host/server, I've tested the simple mode got better results on how fast a match is found but at some point it stopped working again I've been trying to search for a match for the past hour and nothing :(, I was thinking if could be possible to remotely connect to my router to see if something is failing or to send a hard reset (I've tried many times phisicaly and no changes just gets worse) 

 

PD. No game is not running in the background while making changes added image for reference  

Pd2. After try to reboot the router and filter closer it is still showing other servers 

Pd3. After rebooting router tried to run it with the geofilter disable but no match where found and the router behavior was the same searching for a match capped at 34o 37 ping and servers bugged another picture for reference also my friends don't want to play with me because I never found a match :(

No worries, we don't do that kind of support but you have quite a few denied servers there, you may have inadvertantly denied a required server for matchmaking so if you could delete all those please. Also if you're going to make changes, also completely exit the Xbox app, including from the system tray, otherwise it may keep connections alive. Once you've done all that please see if it works better then.

Alright so

1.I did exit completely out of the xbox app

2.deleted all the denied servers.

But it didn't work either after getting 1 lobby it will never conect to another one I've been waiting for 40 min aprox and at this time in the morning FL servers usually take 3-4 mis to get connected to a lobby 

 

Same behavior: server light blinking and "finding host" on the right coming back and forth

Okay thanks for trying, it may be to do with using the Xbox app, I will pass it onto the team and see if that can reproduce it. 

Just to double check:

  • Are you using HybridVPN?
  • Have you made port forwarding rules?
  • Are you using the DMZ?
  • Have you done a Traffic Controller rule for the device?
