Xr300 geo filter and other problems
Right so i have an xr300 the problems are im constantly getting connected outside of my radius and yes everything is setup exaclly how netdumaos tells you to set up i followed all instructions i leave...
That is normal, it's actually a server misclassified as a peer, we'll be sorting that with a cloud update. You won't see any players on the map when playing CoD as you're connecting to the server and don't have direct connections to the players.
Right i get you now .. should i just leave my ps4 in filtering mode at all times in order for the geo filter to work correctly i never change it from filtering mode i just leave it in filtering mode at all times .. i get around 18-20 ms ping on that server .. when you will netgear be fixing the NIL bugs ?? Massive help today thank you
- Yes my recommendation would be to leave it in Filtering Mode, you know that setting works and you're getting the closest server with a really good ping so you can rest assured it's doing its job. I can't provide any ETAs on firmware releases as that's down to Netgear but whenever it's released the NIL issue will be fixed.
- So whats the difference between the xr500 xr700 and xr300 is there any quality differences they all have the same dumaos softwear i dont know the advantages between the the 3
- Really the key differences are down to hardware/WiFi, if you go here and go down to the routers and click compare you can add them all to a table to see the differences: https://www.netgear.com/gaming/
Other than that a few software differences - XR300 doesn't have Smart Connect (the automatic smart switching between 2.4/5GHz WiFi based on device need).
XR700 has extra features such as Plex but no specific DumaOS differences.
