is the top 2 bars in the antibuffer bloat what im limiting the other devices too or is it what Im getting?I bought the xr700 a couple days ago to use with xbox 1x and black ops 4.I set up Qos and Geo filter only added my xbox as a priority giving it 70% on up load and download. the game runs great on my modem alone [ netgear cm1000] but i figured i could get better with the 700 wired straight in.I posted this in another post and was asked which FW I was running. what modem and to factory reset and reinstall FW. I did . no change. if I turn off Qos and geo filter it works fine. is netduma and dumaos the same? when i look in optimizing the geo filter in netduma it shows you can link directly to xbox live. i cant find that along with some other things.
Those two Anti-Bufferbloat bars set how much your total bandwidth will be limited to. For example, if you had 100mbps total and set it to 70%, you will now have 70mpbs. This ensures there's always room for low latency applications like games.
Here are the best guides for setting up QoS and the Geo-Filter on your DumaOS powered router:
Thanks for the reply. I want 70% of my internet going to my xbox and 30% going to other devices. So if I set the sliders to 70%. is that the Xbox or every thing total? on the anti buffer bloat page i have 70% on the the sliders. then down in Bandwidth allocation -download Ive got the xbox1 set at 70%. when I have that enabled I get in game lag.if i turn the anti buffer bloat off i dont have the lag which leads me to belive Ive got the setting wrong. Im a pretty serious gamer and the only reson I bought the big money router is for anti buffer bloat and geo-filter.what should i have my setting set at?
Anti-Bufferbloat applies to everything. If it's better off then it sounds like it's not configured correctly. Put the speeds you pay for in Anti-Bufferbloat's options menu. 70% for both download & upload sliders. Change Anti-Bufferbloat to apply 'Always'. You can leave Bandwidth Allocation default most likely, just ensure share excess is ticket for Bandwidth Allocation on both download/upload. Gaming barely uses any bandwidth so giving it 70% is overkill. Then remove any manual rules from Traffic Prioritization and leave DumaOS Classified Games enabled. Geo-Filter place your radius where you live and use the CoD profile.
The NetdumaOS instructions for the open beta, is that firmware image compatible with the Netgear XR500? I got access to the Open Beta, but the file download came in as a .sig and is not a .img
