If speedtest.net is showing your normal speeds then the router isn't limiting you but try toggling speed test bypass in Ping Optimizer > Advanced. Otherwise it's unlikely there is any feature impacting it and is more likely the site.

You can't individually filter a cluster of servers within one location per se but you could add the 17ms ping server to your deny list so you don't play on it again. Do be warned though that denying lots of servers will leave you with very few options for servers to play on and may increase search times/prevent you getting a game altogether.

Are you just focusing on the jitter result on the bufferbloat test or are you actually experiencing that in game also?

So the fiber router connected to the R3? For the Geo-Filter you're covering a huge area so you could be getting servers that are a way higher ping, reduce it so you're covering just the closest server to you. Just on SmartBOOST, add Gaming as the activity, then switch to device on SmartBOOST and select your device.

It should be easier to filter BF6 on the new R3 Early Access firmware now

Just to clarify, you said your modem is in bridge mode and the R3 is in its DMZ - it can only be one or the other, which one are you using? By the only device being connected to the R3 is the PC do you mean you have no other devices in your home using internet or that they are connected to a different router? If the latter could you explain how they fit into the network please. How have you enabled the Geo-Filter exactly? Currently you're not using Congestion Control with it set to 100 so that won't be helping. Try with 70% and experiment from there to find what percentages work best for you. You've reserved bandwidth for certain games (gaming barely uses any bandwidth so 40Mbps is overkill and won't get anywhere close to needing that much so you could remove this) but then you haven't prioritized those games. Prioritize Gaming overall so it covers all the games you want to play. Also prioritize the device as well as a backup. Is the PC the risk device? In which case you should absolutely remove the DMZ rule and the port forwarding rules as it's a major security issue for PCs. If it was a console however the port forwarding rules would be unnecessary because its in the DMZ already.

The only way that makes sense is that the routing from you to the game servers is poor, in which case no router could resolve that, it'd be something you'd need to go to the ISP with but they would be unlikely to help

You'll need to give us the ID of that server then we can correct its location in the cloud. Until then you can add it to your denied list to prevent connecting to it. You should never put your PC in the DMZ, it's a major security issue, I would strongly suggest you remove that. It could also be impacting your results but also with your configuration the router can't properly control devices individually to prevent issues.

As a test shut your console down fully when you stop using it and see if it gets boosted still after 24 hours please

So just the boosting aspect stops working? What games/applications are you expecting to be boosted? Presumably you're seeing them being boosted when you're playing the game/using the application within that first 24 hours and then it shows nothing correct? What devices are you using that the boost would be applying to? Are you leaving that device in an instant on/standby mode rather than shutting it down fully?

How did you set your ISP router for the R3? DMZ, modem/bridge mode? Were ALL devices connected to the R3? Are speeds set the same as those you receive? What settings were changed from the defaults? The Geo-Filter only shows connections that are being made, if only a few didn't appear then it's likely the game wasn't attempting a connection to them. The latest update is here: https://kb.netgear.com/000068422

If you're getting those ping spikes directly connected to the ONU when there is no possibility of local devices interfering then that's something you'll need to rectify with the ISP first as the router won't be able to help with inherent instability. Set the MAC address of the R3 to the MAC of the ONU instead and see if that helps. Where are you measuring the packet loss? It's very bizarre with only a few devices and only being used one at a time that you're getting packet loss. I really would suggest you explore the ping spikes with the ISP first as its likely the loss is related as well, even if you didn't see it in that testing session.

Could you explain what the issue is that you're facing exactly?
