Ping assist doesn't work at all

As the image shows, I have set ping assist to 20 ms and put the Geo filter point in the ocean and still puts me into matches above 20 ms. It had put me in to African server dispate the ping assist and I live in Europe. Any ideas?

20ms may be too low for you to get a game which is why it is getting games slightly higher, it may be best to instead use the radius exclusively to force the servers closest to you.

What game are you seeing this issue in? Could you please ensure you have filtering mode enabled?

I was playing Black Ops Cold War (PS4) when it didn't work, but ping assist doesn't work with other games I play. And the filtering mode is enabled, still didn't work. 😕

I have factory resettet the router and still doesn't work. I'm gonna try to downgrade the firmware to see if it helps.
