XR 500 GEOFILTER FAIL
Hello, I bought the XR 500 today, I watched a few videos on Youtube to see how it works for others, now I wanted to test the geofilter, it somehow doesn't work for me. If I ask for my location in the game, he tells me I'm at home .. and with the youtbers he says, he's in a different country .. am I doing something wrong?
and .. I don't see any servers only with heatmap
thanks for help :)

So Geo-filter is designed to ensure you are connecting to the server(s) offering you the best connection, it isn't designed to change your geo-location. For more information as to how you can optimise Geo-filter to ensure you're getting the best out of it, check out this guide on our knowlege base:
