Do you have a Raspberry Pi or some sort of spare device running Linux you can install Smokeping on?

You shouldn't need a networking genius, there must be something you didn't do. Easiest way to check is turn your firewall off and on the router add the PC running the server to DMZ and test, if that works you did something wrong previously.

Lets check if what they say is true, check the WAN IP on your router and then Google "what is my IP" just to make sure.

Have you tested it and tried to play something or just checked via that website if the port is open?

You should have gotten an adaptor in the box that converts from MC4 to Anderson. Edit: I was too slow

Ask your ISP support for a public IP, they will ask you to restart the router to claim your IP and it will magically start working.

You probably don't have a public IP from your ISP.

To what end?

But do check out Tailscale while you're busy, it's great, you just OAuth with your Google account, install it on your server and phone and done, it just works.

There's nothing to fix, it's something they offer for free. I just checked mine as well, working perfectly. Just forward the port, I'm assuming 8123 and go to username.ip.afrihost.co.za:8123 and it should work.

What do you mean?

The first one, theriddler.ip.afrihost.co.za But check out Tailscale, it's stupid easy, takes like 2 minutes and you don't have to open any ports.

Afrihost gives you a DDNS, it's just yourusername.ip.afrihost.co.za or just use something like Tailscale.

If you do want to get a different one and you're worried about the whole UPS thing you can just get one of these seperate: https://www.geewiz.co.za/smart-plugs-switches/203480-geewiz-automatic-inverter-transfer-switch-230v3000w-the-easy-fix-for-portable-inverters-without-a-ups-function.html

I don't understand what the hell these people are on about and I feel like I'm going crazy so just to confirm my sanity: What you have in mind is just a program you run and you type in Brakpan, it gets the schedule from Github or your server whatever and then it just does a simple shutdown...

The housing looks slightly different but the delicious insides are probably the same.

I was just reading that as well, apparently the big ones do have that, that's good to know, so it's either the smaller one or the last gen model that was always on battery.

The Geewiz branded one you can have connected permanently, it will give you grid power when there is no loadshedding and battery power when loadshedding hits, you won't ever feel the loadshedding. The way the other two work is you're on the battery 24/7 even when there's no loadshedding you...

I don't think either of those function as a UPS so while yes they will work they will constantly be using battery power even when there's no loadshedding which is not going to be great for the battery life in the long run. I would probably throw this in the mix as my suggestion...

More functions - system settings - TR-069

No. They're saying to the universe now add these servers but Titanfall 2 does have 3rd party custom servers so anyone can make a ZA server if they want. I've played on ZA servers.

Your EU account should be fine, the E in EMEA is Europe and the A is Africa.

And that wasn't even the performance patch, patch 2 is going to be the performance patch.

You probably want to use the Cudy released OpenWRT to change firmware to OpenWRT and then move to the official version but the default firewall rule is set to reject traffic from WAN and you can only access the webui and SSH from LAN anyway so you're fine.

The Cudy is probably the easiest router to buy to test this out on because Cudy have the OpenWRT firmware on their website so you can just flash it via the normal webui, no need for any TFTP or serial port anything.

You just point it at your WAN and you're good to go across the board.

With: Without: You choose the interface you want it on, you should YouTube some OpenWRT videos, it's a bit more involved than a normal TP-Link router but still very easy compared to something like RouterOS. But you do get all sorts of nice treats because you get a package manager to add...

Pretty much yes, adative QoS should be the same thing.

The list of supported routers is massive, I said Cudy because they're super cheap and Cudy makes it super easy, they release the OpenWRT firmware you can just flash using the Web UI and then you can upgrade easily going forward. I have mine on a MikroTik ac2. But it also depends on how fast...

Smart Queue Management. Let me show you an example, this is without SQM enabled and then running a speedtest, nice 10ms the whole time until the download starts: Reply from 8.8.8.8: bytes=32 time=10ms TTL=116 Reply from 8.8.8.8: bytes=32 time=10ms TTL=116 Reply from 8.8.8.8: bytes=32 time=10ms...

One day when you're bored and you maybe see a cheap router like a Cudy X6 lying around you can flash OpenWRT on it and use SQM. Limiting the bandwidth works but it's such an archaic and inelegant way of doing it.

Why do you limit speed per device?

I haven't used RouterOS in years, my own MikroTik has OpenWRT on it because I was bored one day. I doubt it would be on by default, I know with the AC2 you go from ~350 to 920Mbps when you enable it. There should be an easy enough guide somewhere.

You have to use FastTrack

There's no way you won't get gigabit with an ac3.

Just be aware it's not actually yours to keep, one day when you cancel with Vox they'll ask for it back but sometimes they forget.

I do enjoy playing video games.

Does that list have V1 fully assembled carbon black pro red written on it anywhere?

Afrihost has a "gaming VPN" now, I think this is the secret project they didn't want to tell you about: https://mybroadband.co.za/forum/index.php?threads/1235137/

Find another 2.5 grand and get a proper PSU and a 4070.

Save the difference and just get an ExitLag sub, it will destroy any local ISP's international latency.

Gaming traffic isn't even TCP, it's UDP.

If it was stuck on 94Mbps it would be because the port is negotiating at 100Mbps, 80Mbps means it's something else.

You can try them wired but I doubt it, PS4 and above all work perfectly.

If you have an XBOX or PlayStation controller lying around they both work.

2GB RAM and 8GB ROM

There was a double speed promo for 50Mbps and under that only certain ISPs offered and then another double speed promo but just for the download not upload. https://openserve.co.za/news-and-campaigns/double-your-openserve-fibre-speed-free
