Hi.
I believe the Openserve maintenance has been completed. It could be an isolated fault.
Have you tested directly to the ONT, traceroute to the IPtv source IP?
 
Anyone having trouble gaming tonight? Getting packet loss to Fortnite and Apex and brother was lagging on his side as well. Mitchell's plain Cape Town with VumaReach

Also have a friend 5mins away who is completly fine at least on Apex so just wondering if something has broke on my end

Hi.

Please share ping potter or trace route results so we can see where the loss starts.
 
Hi guys, is there a way to set up the WS5200V2 as a AP?

Don't see the option in the settings similar to non-brand versions,

Thanks

Reset to factory defaults.
Start the setup. It should ask you if it should function as a Internet router or an extender, select extender.
 
If you do it vis wired network you can connect the cable to the WAN port.

  • Then press and release the ‘H button’ on top of the router. This will allow the devices to scan and pair with each other.
This if both routers are one of these:

Yes, you can have a public IP allocated and IPv6 should be enabled already.

Morning. Happy days on public IP. Thanks for assisting on that, on a Sunday no less! Just checking, you don't offer static IPs on MFN by any chance yet, right?

Afternoon, I went about cleaning my LAN ports since I figured dust was the problem after taking a look and viola it was fixed afterwards :) Thank you for reaching out regardless

Unfortunately seems it wasn't the dust issues as the problem has reappeared again since an hour ago with just 10-20 PL across every server I try on. I mainly play on console but I'd assume I can try to get the games servers IP address I play one and use my laptop to get ping plotter results to it? Not too familiar with using them

Is it happening mainly during peak hours?

Yea try get the IP address of the game server, can do it using resource monitor on windows, then use ping plotter

I only have 2 days reference but yes I'd say it starts at around 8pm to 10pm. Could it just be a peak hours issue?

Could be, will definitely need to be looked at, if u could do ping plotter tests before it happens and during

How would I go about grabbing the server IP using my laptop if I play on console using resource monitor? I don't think my old rust bucket laptop would be able to even open it to grab the IP that way
