- Netduma-FraserMay 17, 2020NetDuma PartnerThese aren't the PingPlotter tests I suggested, don't worry about DSLReports, follow the guide/suggestions I made and see what PingPlotter shows. Also remove the manual Traffic Prioritization rule as it is covered by DumaOS Classified Games.
- Andybrenn1989May 17, 2020AspirantIt doesn’t matter about the ping plotter tests there’s a load of YouTube’s telling me to use this site because it’s the best site to target bufferbloat battle non sense is one of them who knows his stuff about networking there is a problem on my network and this site shows me there is a problem iv used ping plotter also already used the free trial already so I’m not paying money to use it again to find out the same stuff I already found out it was showing bad results also there is definetly a problem with my connection as I can feel it when I’m gaming and dsl reports tells me there is major bufferbloat so why would I not pay attention to that ?
- Netduma-FraserMay 17, 2020NetDuma PartnerBufferbloat is lag and lag is only caused when your network becomes saturated. That test will not saturate the connection. By doing the suggestions I made with PingPlotter you're simulating a real world scenario of you downloading, playing games, streaming etc and then fine tuning the QoS settings to prevent those services causing you to lag. The trial version reverts to the free version so no need to pay anything. I am just trying to give you the best advice and suggestions to help resolve your issue that I have done before to others in similar situations.
