Upgrade from xr500 to xr1000 PS5 Console issues
Hello all. I’ve been using my xr500 for a while with no issues (finally), but the resets have been becoming more necessary recently to keep it connected to the internet so I upgraded to the xr1000. ...
Change the 5GHz mode down to 2400Mbps instead, then reboot, wait 2 minutes and see if it is any better please
Hi Fraser- this seemed to do the trick. Funny how that’s the one speed regime for 5ghz I did not try. Although the ps5 bandwidth is still a bit slower than the xr500 (~100mbps vs ~300) it at least connects automatically now.
Any other ideas as to why that may be?

- Glad to hear it! Do the 1000 QoS settings mirror the 500?
- Well I’m able to run the auto optimize QoS settings feature now so the percentages are way different than what the xr500 had. I have a very asymmetric IP connection at 800mbps down 25 up so I had 60% for dl and ul before but now it’s 50&99 respectively. But I still have it on auto detect QoS and share throughput on the traffic allocation feature, so the specific amount the console is set to shouldn’t matter unless my network bandwidth is saturated I would think. Am I missing something?
- Congestion Control will affect your speeds through the speed test so if you set your bandwidth then adjust manually you should be able to get the speeds up again but you don't need that much speed for gaming
