lazyychef Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Hey Guys, Purchased and received my duma on Monday. I have had little time at home to set it up but I was just wondering how everyone out there in Australia/Sydney is going with their Duma? I play Black Ops 3 on Xbox 1 and I'm wondering about the Geo-Filter. The few brief moments I have had to test it out were not very encouraging. I set the location to the middle of Australia and the range to 3000km to cover the whole country. I searched for a came of Core -> Domination and it just sat there searching for 10 minutes, finding a couple of games and not joining. There was a few (maybe 4 or 5) red circles that came up inside the country but it never joined. As soon as I expanded the Geo-Filter within seconds I had joined a game where the server was on the East coast of USA. The other issue I have is with my old router I was able to get 10-12Mbit/s download on speedtest.net but when I set up the R1 it was throttling it at 7Mbit/s. I fiddled with the settings and updated the firmware and it got up to 10Mbit/s. If I can't get the Geo-Filter to connect to servers in my own country, what is the returns policy in place for this router?Thanks guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Staff Netduma Crossy Posted December 1, 2015 Netduma Staff Share Posted December 1, 2015 Hey, welcome to the forum What do you have ping assist set to? If you're not already, try settings it to about 50 in case there are servers that are close to you but have been mis-located on the GeoFilter.

I left the ping assist set to 30ms but I'll try changing it tonight. Would having the ethernet cable from the DUMA to my old router and then into the Cable broadband modem make any differences?

Thanks No, that shouldn't make a difference as long as all your devices are connected to the Netduma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 2, 2015 Administrators Share Posted December 2, 2015 Do you have strict on or off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazyychef Posted December 2, 2015 Author Share Posted December 2, 2015 I tried it with strict off at first and it just kept scanning. then I put strict on but it made no difference. It seemed like all of the players in the lobby were in Australia but connected to a server in the USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadBrad Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Hi mate, I am in Australia also and I can assure you those servers you see in America are in the wrong location, I ping 15ms to them from Brisbane. As for not finding games I am in the exact same boat, this I ly happened after updating the netduma, disabling it has yielded good results, it's pretty damn frustrating because it made the unplayable advanced warfare fun again. Hell, I even heard cod on Xbone is just fail lately so it's probably just Activision screwing it's fans. When I get a chance I'll connect my ps4 up and see if I have the same issues with duma/cod, if I don't I will let you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadBrad Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Also if someone gives you advice that fixes your issue please let me. Know, I have tried EVERYTHING Iotherrecommend with no luck (and I have fibre to the damn home! Shit should be rocking excellent games) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
