nighthawk XR1000 geo filter not working!!!!
I picked a netgear XR1000 up 3 days ago and the geo filter has only worked once. I'm from the UK and wanted to play on American servers and it won't let me move servers again it's like the geo filter...

Try this:
Quit the application/game/client completely
Remove device from the Geo-Filter
Give PC PlayStation Device Type in the Device Manager (if on PC)
Resync from the Geo-Filter Map menu
Re-add the device to the Geo-Filter with the manual option
Set up the Geo-Filter how you like (Ping Assist has to be set to 0 which it sounds like yours probably isn't which is why you're still getting low pings)
Wait 2 minutes
Boot up application/game/client
Then see if it works better.
