My cell phone takes 5-10 minutes to send simple pictures when the wifi is connected

What cell phone do you have? 

What OS is loaded on it? 

Does this happen on other phones or devices? 

Be sure that any MAC ADDRESS randomizers are disabled on any phone or pad while at home:

What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6 is recommended. 

How do you have Basic and Advanced Wireless settings configured? 

What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and 40 to 48 channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?

Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update? A complete pull of the power adapters for a period of time after the factory reset then walk thru the setup wizard and setup from scratch with a wired PC and web browser. Recommend setting the default DHCP IP address pool range to the following after applying and a factory reset: 192.168.#.100 to 192.168.#.200.

I read some forums that stated that disbabled the Geo-Filter would fix the issue, but the plugin won't load. The error I get is "This Rapp is not loaded yet, please try again in a minute."

 

I am on the latest available Firmware, this is ridiculous for an XR1000 router.

 

Please provide any assistance you can, or a piece of hardware that isn't a piece of junk.

 

Thanks,

Chris
