    I'm getting this router, so I can have an open NAT on all of the consoles in the house.
    Plus, while ppl are on their tablets, cellphones, & laptops, I won't get thrown on a strict connection while trying to game with friends. Lastly, the 4 antennas will widen the WiFi signal throughout the house.

    you should use iperf to test speeds, when your internet is only 75Mbits that's not really gonna give any modern router a problem. Setup an iperf server on your pc (which should be hardwired into your LAN) and run a client test from your phone or laptop to see how good the wireless really is.

  • @antonhromadka9079
    @antonhromadka9079 5 лет назад

    I have the XR500, the reason I bought it was for the GeoFilter and it ended up not being important. Most games now are dedicated server, there are still a few using listen server setups but not as many as there used to be.
    I ended up turning it in to a AP and getting the EdgeRouter 4, it is just a better piece of equipment. I can do more with the features on the ER4, you will have to learn some CLI to get the most of it but it isn't that hard and there is plenty of help in their community.
    While the GeoFilter is a great idea, it would have been better if it was available back in the day when most games used listen servers like Socom, COD (when they used more Listen than Dedicated) and there were a few others. I just wish NetDuma would have picked a better piece of hardware (it isn't bad) but it is high end last gen where the ER line and some others are using more "current" hardware.
