Nighthawk XR500
I just got the new Xbox series X, and my console was having trouble downloading content. I am using a wired connection that’s connecting to 1st wired port on the router. When I went to the VLAN/Bridge...
Thanks for replying! I honestly have no idea if I require it. Honestly don’t even know what that means, lol, I’m not very good with this router stuff. By my physical setup do you mean how my router is setup?
Okay so you probably don't need it then, no idea how that worked. Yes how is the XR connected to the internet e.g. through an ONT, ISP modem/router etc and how your devices are connected.
- My router is connected to a little ISP modem. My Xbox is connected through a wired connection. All my other devices are connected by WiFi.
- What XR500 firmware are you using? Have you disabled VLAN since and seen whether the downloads work properly?
- Firmware is on V2.3.2.66. And I just turned VLAN off right now and started downloading something, and it downloads for a little bit, then it stops. It downloads stuff very very slowly. Looks like download froze now. I just enabled VLAN again and everything downloads smoothly.
