VPN and Geolocation

Hey Guys, Kinda new to this. Quick question. If I'm running a VPN connection via my router, is there a possibility to check my ping  numbers for the lobby that I'm joining via the Geolocation R-app...

    Hi lushka, with the VPN enabled the Geo-Filter will not work correctly. We're in the middle of testing our VPN Hybrid solution which may also resolve this issue depending on how it is used.

Hi.

 

If you select the host/server on the geo map it should display the ping below the map if Auto Ping Host is ticked!

    Hi,

     

    Unfortunately, it's not showing anything on the Geo map when the VPN option is active. As soon as it is switched off, I see all lobby members on the geo map.

     

    Thanks
