Ideal Bandwith Allocation + Server Recommendation

[maximilianob]

Hello,

I am playing eFootball 27 on a PlayStation 5 from Miami, connecting to the Virginia server. To minimize latency issues caused by low-signal connections (3 to 2 bars) originating from Central America, the Caribbean, and South America, I have utilized the Netduma's Geo-Filter to block the South Carolina server node.

My current network setup utilizes IP Passthrough, UPnP enabled, and a dedicated connection for the PS5. Could you advise on the following points:

1. Bandwidth Allocation: What is the ideal bandwidth allocation/QoS setup for the PlayStation 5 under these conditions?

2. Geo-Filter Routing: Does blocking the South Carolina server present any routing conflicts or negatively impact my path to the Virginia server?

Regards,

Matt

1. You can leave Bandwidth Allocation at their defaults, gaming barely uses bandwidth anyway
2. It's unlikely but ultimately it's down to your ISP, the Geo-Filter itself doesn't directly impact your routing path
