Can you guys allow ping assist to allow searching for games lower than 30ms! 30ms is great & all but, I'd like to try to hit lower ping rates like 20 or 10 or at least 15. I honestly don't mind longer search times just to get a good lobby! Also when using Geo-Filter. Ive been having issues with it. I have it set to washington state to Oregon search radius set to 500 miles & i keep getting into 80ms ping lobbys! When i have my ping assist without fast search set to 30 an this is with filtered mode on for my gaming pc set to call of duty! Even had it in BO4 on console. So i thing Geo-Filter has been bugging out lately! I never use fast search becuase you know cod tirrible matchmaking but, I'd like to see improvements on the gaming side! You know it is a gaming router.

There's nothing stopping you from setting the Ping Assist value lower. The limitation is really on the user's connection.

Not true with ping assist set to 30ms! I can get 30ms all the time but, The second i toggle 20ms or 10ms! My ping ingame when i join that lobbys spikes upto 80-100ms an when i toggle it back to 30ms boom im back to 30 ping lobbys again. I think its a bug in the Geo Filter settings. So im stuck with setting my ping assist to 30 until it allows me to set it lower an that issue is fixed!
- Netduma-FraserJun 17, 2020NetDuma PartnerProbably what is happening there is that you're unable to get games under 30ms so it's probably superseding this in order to get you a game. That's something we can look at for 3.0 and see if there is a better way to do it/fix it if it is a bug.
