need help for netgear xr500

Hello

I have been using Router Netgear XR500 for a long time,

but I don`t know what the correct settings should be used in order to enjoy playing online.
Sometimes I encounter a delay in response in some games.
I am using bridge mode from Huawei HG8245Q ISP router and

my internet speed is 300 download and 80 up .
Here are in attachments the settings that i`m using now and I don`t know if need to changed or not ??
I need your help....  thanks.

  • Does the console report an Open NAT? If so then the game will have an open NAT also, it will most likely be the Geo-Filter causing a misreading. You could use either option but I wouldn't suggest using both, probably DMZ would be more secure/considerate of your other devices.

        Your settings look okay but you've not shown everything that could affect the connection so I couldn't say for certain. By looking at the guides you can fine tune those as well as get a better understanding of how the router works.
