Re: ping assist not working warzone

You need to move the radius/home location to exclude Spain and the top of France and cover the rest of the EU, you're getting a lot of good pings showing on heatmap

Re: ping assist not working warzone

There are a lot of servers within that polygon so shouldn't be an issue getting a game. Did you adjust those settings when you were already on the game?

Re: ping assist not working warzone

I adjusted it being inside and then outside, but nothing, it does not work, instead a server from the USA jumps

Re: ping assist not working warzone

Do this please:
Hard turn off the console
Remove device from Geo-Filter
Flush cloud from Geo-Filter Map menu
Re-add the device to the Geo-Filter
Setup the Geo-Filter how you would like
Wait 2 minutes
Boot up the client/game

Re: ping assist not working warzone

I can't get the geo-filter to work, maybe activision no longer lets you use the geo-filter

Re: ping assist not working warzone

The filter is definitely working in that screenshot, the Spain server is not always available. Please try the steps I said and set it up according to the polygon previously

Hello @jose13lilt 

First, Try to downgrading the original fiwmare: https://kb.netgear.com/000053241/XR500-Firmware-Version-2-0-0-28

And, after-that upgrading again: https://kb.netgear.com/000060464/XR500-Firmware-Version-2-3-2-40

This will uninstall and reinstall Ping Assist and hopefully fix the issue.

Re: ping assist not working warzone

What are you seeing now? How long is it taking to get a game? Did you try installing the firmware?

Re: ping assist not working warzone

Yes, it didn't work and I went back to the latest version with dumaos 3.0.204

Disable filtering mode, what servers does the game put you on as shown by the map?

Re: ping assist not working warzone

I tried the firmware again, it did not work, now it returned to version 2.3.2.114 dumaos 3.0.203 and with the profile call of duty (PC only) this skips me

https://ibb.co/z5NPPPS

 

and it always connects in France, nowhere else, if I restrict France it does not find a game, if I activate the geographical filter with France inside it finds a game but, the SBMM breaks and puts me with people twice my level of 65-120ms

https://ibb.co/gdZMDqp

 

in the list of games I get: Call of duty and Call of duty (PC only), I put Call of duty because PC only no longer works even to filter

Re: ping assist not working warzone

You need to give the PC the PlayStation device type in the Device Manager and re-add it to the Geo-Filter selecting the manual option and it will filter better that way

Re: ping assist not working warzone

It has not worked for me in any way, in the end I opted to deactivate the filter because it does not work well, at least in Spain

Re: ping assist not working warzone

hi, I updated to the latest firmware version, to 2.3.2.120 and the ping assist and geo filter works worse than before, now I activate it with my device in playstation mode and I can't even enter the game, it jumps all the time connection failed

Re: ping assist not working warzone

There won't have been a change to the Geo-Filter in that regard, what are your settings and are you seeing any icons being blocked when that failed message appears?
