Hi  Aarfmann,

 

How are you connecting your Xbox one to the MR1100?  Is it via WiFi or Ethernet?  I have no issues with PS4 connecting to internet via M1.

 

Kind Regards,

    Connected by wi-fi..... there has to be a simple solution for this ... I just don't get it that Telstra & netgear sell incompatible stuff...

      Can you provide any information , like the error xbox is giving and the ip configuration and gateway it is using? I've tested my M1 with my nephews xbox and no issue, didn't have to configure anything out of the ordinary. The only issue you may have is if you are behind a double NAT setup by your ISP, then you can still get out, but no one would be bale to connect back to you if you try running a server

        Says my DNS server can’t resolve Xbox live server names. I have tried all of the Xbox help suggestions.
