XR1000 Warzone Xbox servers

Hello, I'm new here so please forgive me if I don't explain this clearly enough, but, here goes. I have an Xbox series X that I'm trying to use in conjunction with this router. The geofilter shows a warzone server in Utah, which is great because it's located about 70 miles from me. I set my filter perimeter roughly at the northern Utah border and centered on it east to west with a radius of about 450 miles and a zero ping assist. I load the game, search for a match and it sits and searches FOREVER!!! The server shows on the ping heat map, it shows while I'm searching for a game, but, as previously stated, I cannot get a game in any mode. I've set my xboxs ip in the Lan settings, I've got upnp enabled, I've factory reset about 4 times today as per some articles I've read, I've completely backed out of the game, erased the console saved data and deleted the console from the filter list and the device Manger every time I change the geo filter settings. I've tried ipv4 and ipv6 and itt doesn't make a difference. The geofilter also shows me in San Jose CA area even though I've typed in my physical address and it moves the center of the search radius there, but, when I begin searching for a game or join an Xbox live party, it shows me in CA. I've contacted netgear about 5 times and am getting nowhere, could someone, anyone, PLEASE help me figure this out??!!! I'm beginning to suspect this geo filtering does not work on consoles as advertised. Oh, ps, no vpn either. Thanks in advance for any help!!!
