Well worth the price

Not only is the router priced better than the competition but it outperforms them too from my previous experiences.

Any issues I've run into have been solved quickly, I dont really use forums anymore but I dmed the support team and they were really fast getting back to me and friendly.

Cant recommend it enough, my connection feels so much smoother than it used to and I can actually enjoy gaming now. Shipped fast too

Happy To Be Part Of The Netduma Team!

I've been a Netduma customer since 2017 when I purchased the R1 and was blown away by the effectiveness of the software. I've had issues with the R2 and could never bring out it's full potential. The R3 with DumaOS 4 is straight out the gate leaps and bounds ahead of the two previous iterations. I appreciate how smoothly the interface runs on my PC and the customizable fearures of the hardware. Looking forward to purchasing the R4, R5, R6, R7 and so on.

Netduma - the one and only solution to home networking!

I have been a consumer of the Netduma products and an early adopter of the original R1. I consider myself to have a very decent understanding of networking.

I have always been a harcore gamer more specifically call of duty. I couldn't put a number on how many things I have tried when it comes to ensuring I have the best possible online gaming experience.

Over the years I have had different living situations and the Netduma products have never failed me. This has ranged from a busy household with a heavy Internet usage to only me and even when living alone I have benefitted from the Netduma as the geo filter is hands down the best feature you can have for gaming and benefit from whether living alone or with others. I have used many other routers over my time and no router has ever crushed congestion like the Netduma series of routers.

I couldn't ever recommend the Netduma products enough, if you are a serious gamer and want an edge in online gaming then I would seriously considering buying one. Above all else, the Netduma team have been nothing but beyond brilliant. The team has grown considerably from the days of me owning my little white box (R1) but to this day (many years later) the core team remember me and many others. My concern from the beginning were that as the years go by and the team continue to grow, they will forget the gamers and become more business driven. I can hand on my heart say the team have stayed humble. They are still true gamers themselves and truly only want the best for every one of their consumers. They listen and take on board and feedback, good or bad and look.

I am not affiliated with Netduma in anyway, I simply want others to improve their own connection which in turn makes my personal experience better.

2nd netduma router and I regret it

2nd netduma router and I regret it. don't seem to do anything right imo. from the xr1000 to the r3 I had nothing but a bad experience. the features don't even work right. the xr1000 I could never see the ping heat map. also dropped Wi-Fi. the r3 improved with ping heat map. but I don't really feel this has done anything for me. the Wi-Fi drops on this router too and increased my ping by ten over the xr1000. personally, I will never buy a netduma/netgear product again. feels like a sales pitch more than anything. the ping optimizer says it lowered my ping but still have a high ping with this router in games. I normally would see a 20ms ping in battlefield but now I am seeing 30 or higher. other options out there but people really swear by open wrt so just buy an off the shelf router and install that. avoid this product and save your money. think this is cash grab.

Hi Anthony,

One of the new features on the Netduma R3 is Steady Ping. By using Steady Ping, an unstable and jittery ping will be smoothed out, leading to better gameplay.

In order to achieve this, packets are delayed by a small amount. This delay amount is dynamically chosen based on the tick rate of the game.

This will show up in-game as a slightly higher ping, however gameplay will in most cases be smoother than before.

It seems likely that this is what was causing your ping to increase. You can turn off this feature by pressing the Steady Ping button at the top of the Geo-Filter frontend.

The ping reduction mentioned in Ping Optimiser demonstrates how we will improve your ping when the network is congested. Where before your ping may have increased under load, DumaOS will prevent this from happening. The ping listed here may appear slightly higher in-game due to Steady Ping smoothing, but this can be disabled.

Best,

I got my hands on the Netduma R3 router, And setting this thing up was no hassle at all. The interface is smooth and easy to navigate. Plus, they keep rolling out updates, which is pretty cool because it feels like it’s only going to get better with time.

One thing I absolutely love is how you can mess with the settings straight from your phone with their app. They shipped it out fast too, and the way it was packed, tells they really care about what they do.

The customer service team is awesome as well. They’re super quick to respond, really friendly, and honestly, they just seem to want to help you out.

It’s not the ultimate router for super complex network setups, but that’s not really a big deal for me. It does exactly what I need, keeps my connection stable and my ping low while gaming, which is perfect.

Overall, the Netduma R3 is solid. It does what it’s supposed to do without making things complicated. Plus, the support from the team makes it even better. Definitely a good buy if you’re into gaming and want something reliable without needing a degree in network engineering to use it.

The R3 router has been really good but

The R3 router has been really good. The range on it is a lot better than the R2 from my experience. The only thing is when devices like my TV is hooked up to 5G wifi or 2.4 wifi. My screen mirror does not work. I would have to have my other device on the opposite wifi. So if the tv was on 5G my phone would have to be on 2.4 to screen mirror. Same with printer. For my computer to connect. I would have to have my computer hooked up to the opposite wifi then the printer. Annoying, hope it gets fixed soon.
