First of all I would highly recommend going through our optimal settings guides: http://support.netduma.com/support/solutions/folders/16000090646 as they'll give you settings to use and help you understand how the router works. What is your average ping shown by the Geo-Filter? Are you using QoS?

That is a pretty good ping. Do my above suggestion so you eliminate the lag as much as possible.

What QoS settings are you using? Can you describe the type of lag you're getting?

70% is just a suggestion so experiment with it to find what works best for you, use 'Always' as well. Are you using Traffic Prioritization?

Use this guide while saturating the network with downloads and streams and experiment with the sliders to see what brings down the ping the most/keeps it the most stable: http://support.netduma.com/en/support/solutions/articles/16000074717-how-to-test-your-internet-ping
