Developer Blog 1: The Future of DumaOS: Version 3.0
Last year we released our first major update for DumaOS, Milestone 1.3. You guys loved it, so we quickly got to work on the next milestone, packing it full of features to make your Nighthawk P...
We're expanding DumaOS beyond just gaming. We're trying to make the best router operating system around.
Hopefully this means we can actually set our DHCP lease time. Other high-end routers let you do this. The DHCP lease renewal is all it takes to get kicked from Gran Tourismo Sport multiplayer and I'm using a static IP address on a LAN cable outside of the DHCP range.
The XR500 is a POS. I've had it for 2 years, but I've never noticed how inconvenient it is until this COVID-19 mess. Couple that with the terrible update schedule and horrible customer service (takes 4+ hours to get an answer by phone), I'm not buying another Nighthawk, or other Netgear router, once I get around to replacing it.
First Netgear router I purchased and, sadly, the last I will be buying for the forseeable future. An Asus RT-AX88U or RT-AC5300 has more features than this router for pretty much the same price as the current generation Nighthawk.
Never seen an inconvience with my XR router pre and current CD19 events. Not sure why current events would cause problems with your router. Yes CD19 is causing slow downs for support. Goes for any router mfr and there support. Its effecting everything.
Did you even try reverting back FW versions or go with initial first version FW? Seems like more troubleshooting would be needed to really figure out where your problem is other than being inconvienced by the slow down which no can help you with currently. :smileytongue:
