Biren09 Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 I don't know where I should put this but a friend and I both bought the R1. I'm not in front of it right now. We live probably about 15km from each other in Ohio. So we had to guess round abouts where we were on the map. But when we join a party chat I show him on the map as host. When I ping him it says we are 220km away. But when he pings me I am about 1200-1400km away I can't remember exactly. And it shows me as more towards the middle of the U.S. And when I run a trace it shows a triangle pop up in the middle of the U.S. and back to him. Any idea on what could be causing that.

Guest Netduma Fraser Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Firstly, thanks so much to the both of you for buying our router! Very rarely an IP can be slightly misclassified/mislocated. We have a database of IPs that get updated with every upgrade, so it should be reclassified soon! We'll be having more frequent updates in the future, nearly daily. In theory this problem should sort itself out. In your scenario, you should both add each other to the Allow list on the Geo-filter. If you need help doing that, let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biren09 Posted December 16, 2014 Author Share Posted December 16, 2014 Would rebooting and starting over help anything? I also keep showing a host in the U.K. but it doesn't try to connect to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Netduma Fraser Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 No rebooting would not help on this occassion. Can we use Skype as it'll be quicker? Ill private message you my skype id and when I solve it ill post back here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Netduma Fraser Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Sorry about that, we're working out the bugs on that. Your home location being misclassified isn't too much of an issue, just move your home location to your actual location as a temporary fix, the database update will be soon and we're working on updating this daily in the future. Put each other in your allow lists and you'll be able to play together no problem. I don't quite understand what you mean about the UK host, i assume its outside your Geo-filter which means its working as its not allowing a connection. If you need help moving your home or allowing your friend please let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biren09 Posted December 16, 2014 Author Share Posted December 16, 2014 Yeah I moved it yesterday but l was wondering why it was showing me so far away from him when he pings me. I think it is having a small effect on the game. He tried joining a game right after I got off and he said more hosts were available. Like I was restricting the hosts cause I was showing up out of his geofilter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biren09 Posted December 16, 2014 Author Share Posted December 16, 2014 Does the dns settings on the xbox have anything to do with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Netduma Fraser Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Its possible that because you are both using the Geo-filter at the same time that you are filtering even more, hence why finding games may be harder. I suggest the party leader be the one who uses the Geo-filter and the other person have theirs disabled. It will still have the desired effect and may help get games faster. If you allow each other in your allow lists then that would definitely not be an issue that you're restricting his hosts. In the box underneath that says reply to this topic, click on more reply options, it'll take you to a better reply page and underneath it says attach a file. I wouldn't have thought so no.

Biren09 Posted December 16, 2014 Author Share Posted December 16, 2014 I did have mine disabled when we were playing he was the host. At first we both had ours on and we couldn't party chat or join a game cause I was out of his geofilter range Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Netduma Fraser Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Idk if it's the router or call of duty advance warfare I can't join anyone's game invite can you guys help me out how to fix it??? Is your Geo-filter enabled? If it is enabled, is your distance big enough to incorporate the people you are accepting an invite from? If not, I suggest widening the distance or adding them to your Allow list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
