ping assist not working warzone
I have the xr500 with version 2.3.2.114-DumaOS3.0.203, I follow the guide https://community.netgear.com/t5/Nighthawk-Pro-Gaming-Routers/What-is-Ping-Assist/mp/1698092#M7863 and It does not work for me, without the filter activated it looks for lobbys in 40-50ms with the filter activated as the guide says lobbys of 90-170ms
If someone knows an optimal configuration for Spain and the game warzone would help me a lot.
Thank you.

- I can't see the guide unfortunately but can you provide a screenshot of the entire Geo-Filter of what you see when you're in a game please?
The guide indicates that you have to put the geo filter in the ocean with the minimum range to prioritize only by ping and not by distance, but it does not work for me, and when I do it with a geographic filter it is not that it improves me, I feel my latency the same, I have 1gb of download 1gb of upload

Hello jose13lilt
First, Try to downgrading the original fiwmare: https://kb.netgear.com/000053241/XR500-Firmware-Version-2-0-0-28
And, after-that upgrading again: https://kb.netgear.com/000060464/XR500-Firmware-Version-2-3-2-40
This will uninstall and reinstall Ping Assist and hopefully fix the issue.
