[MRS911]

Hello

I have been using Router Netgear XR500 for a long time,

but I don`t know what the correct settings should be used in order to enjoy playing online.
Sometimes I encounter a delay in response in some games.
I am using bridge mode from Huawei HG8245Q ISP router and

my internet speed is 300 download and 80 up .
Here are in attachments the settings that i`m using now and I don`t know if need to changed or not ??
I need your help....  thanks.

Does the console report an Open NAT? If so then the game will have an open NAT also, it will most likely be the Geo-Filter causing a misreading. You could use either option but I wouldn't suggest using both, probably DMZ would be more secure/considerate of your other devices.

I would recommend you go through our optimal settings guides here: http://support.netduma.com/en/support/solutions/folders/16000090646 then if you have any issues/questions we can go from there. Please note that due to the global issue going on at the moment that services are under heavier load than usual and so can result in higher than normal pings/lag.

my problem before 3 months ago , just i want know about my settings is good or not ?

[Netduma-Fraser]

Your settings look okay but you've not shown everything that could affect the connection so I couldn't say for certain. By looking at the guides you can fine tune those as well as get a better understanding of how the router works.

[MRS911]

I can show you exactly what settings you need. Just tell me and I'll put it here.
I feel something wrong with my settings.

[Netduma-Fraser]

It would be much easier to go through our optimal settings guides as it is all detailed there. What is the average ping you're getting to the game?

[MRS911]

my ping is 36-40 ms 

[MRS911]

i want ask which better with bridge mode DMZ or portforwarding ?

[Netduma-Fraser]

That's not too bad of a ping, it depends on a few factors whether you'll be able to lower it anymore. The guides will help with that. Your ISP router is already in bridge mode which is what I would recommend.

but when i`m using bridge mode in cod:mw i have moderate nat ,,,

which best way to open nat ?

DMZ or nat filtering : open from wan settings ??

in ps4 console i have NAT : 2 

so now better for me using DMZ with UPNP enabled ?

UPNP just only open one port : 3659 UDP its normal ?

@Netduma-Fraser 

[Netduma-Fraser]

NAT Type 2 is open, that means it is behind a router so that is good. Yes you could use DMZ with UPnP. It is normal as it will only show ports that are open at the time/when they are needed.
