XR700 Keeps Kicking Offline
I have the XR700 Router with the CM1000 Cable Modem. Every time i try and play on Xbox live even just sitting in a party chat i keep getting kicked offline every few minutes. I have tried to factory...
Thanks for the reply, My Xbox is and has always had Instan On turned off. The router has and issue with MS IPv6, somehow it is incompatible in some form or another. The IPv6 keeps getting disconnected, and i do not know if it is Netgear's end, Microsoft's end, or both.
Curious; is this problem completely non-existent with IPv6 disabled? Or is it less frequent?
I'm not sure if it's related, but it might be of course. Simplest way of finding out is to disable IPv6 and leave instant mode on. Then see if you get any more drop outs.
- So far I've been running IPv6 Passthrough and it's been working but I get terrible lag. Intermittent freezes whole playing all games. Where it seems I walk several steps forward and end up back where I was. I'm going to disable it and see if I still get the problem. IPv6 is a necessary component to Xbox to make things run smoothly and better. I'll let y'all know.
- I wouldn't say IPv6 is necessary for a smooth connection on Xbox, there would be a negligible affect. Are you using QoS or the Geo-Filter at all?
- I have QoS turned off and have geofilter on. I have been messing with both, turning them both on and off to see if it makes a difference. I don't need QoS but want to use the GeoFilter (which is why I bought it) QoS is pointless for me since my PC and Xbox are the only two connected, but phone for wifi.
