Has a full factory reset been performed on the router after the FW update and set up from scratch and walk thru the setup wizard??
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem?
You also can revert back to .v22 FW as well if you can't get the speeds right.

Reverting back to V2.3.2.22 has solved this issue.

I can confirm I had issues with 2.3.2.32 as well, very slow internet speeds and enabling geo filtering would knock my xbox offline. Reverting to 2.3.2.22 fixed it for me as well. Is this other thread netgear/netduma acknowledged that it appears to be buggy firmware.
