Upgraded XR500 to V2.3.2.130 and shortly after all LAN ports not connecting to my devices
Hello, I recently purchased the XR500 a few weeks ago, upgraded FW to .114 and everything was working well. Then FW V2.3.2.130 was released so I upgraded and again everything seemed to be operati...
I am having the same exact issue for over a month since upgrading to V2.3.2.130. When is the next FW release coming out? My family is not happy, I have to reboot the router multiple times a day in order to have even static devices connect. This is definitely a FW bug..
If you're comfortable with it, I'd recommend installing DD-WRT instead of the terrible firmware 2.3.2.130 until they sort the issues.
I've been running DD-WRT for the last month and while the UI isn't as flashy, IPV6, QoS, etc all work as intended and I've yet to have to reboot bar me fiddling with settings to get the best Wi-Fi bandwidth.
My speeds are the same, and my bufferbloat scores (QoS on a maxed out connection) are now A+. The congestion control on DumaOS never worked for me from .56 to .114 or .130. The DHCP issues are the worst. .130 should be pulled and recommended for deletion. It's an awful firmware.
