PS5 Chat random disconnects on XR500 V2.3.2.114 and QOS
Hello,
I'm recently facing PS5 disconnects with the XR500 router since some time. I tried a lot but the only thing that works is turning of Qos, which drastically impacts the rest of the network. Please help out. There is another thread but that has no solution. It worked before.
- Disabled Good Put only : disconnect
- Turned of Upnp and forwarded ports : disconnect
- Turned of Qos entirely: connection remains
Board Model NETGEAR XR500
Firmware Version V2.3.2.114
DumoOS A7Legit
With Geo-filter enabled, keep an eye on the Geo-filter map when joining a PS5 party. You will likely see a server or two pop-up as blocked and you'll need to manually allow these. You may find you have to do this a couple of times but after that you should be good to go.

To the looks of it, I turned off Geo Filtering, and it worked yesterday. My kid also said she had no trouble. I'll be updating
