XR1000 GeoFilter RPC Error
I just bought the XR1000 router to hardwire my Xbox Series X to. After installation and setup, I downloaded the newest 1.0.0.64_1.0.49 firmware and factory reset. All of the apps work except for ...
Hi guys,
Just wanted to follow up on this. I apologize for the delay in response. I was out of town for the last week and not able to try this.
Last night I tried to play an online game with my Xbox Series X and I couldn't connect to online MP. I checked the multiplayer connection and was told I couldn't get a teredo IP address. I did some digging and someone mentioned activating the IPv6 setting on the router fixed their issue. So I activated mine using the Auto Connect setting. Once that was activated and I restarted the router, the error disappeared for the Geo-Filter.
So I never did the manual upload of the new firmware but this did seem to solve for the error. Not sure if that makes sense or something just reset itself in the time I was gone but things seem to be working now.
Thank you guys for all your help and troubleshooting!
I initially used the pin and that's when the error showed up. I also tried the polygon and set by address options with no change in the results. The error code changes slightly to specify the polygon mode but the home address option gives the same error code as with the pin drop.
Are you using Armor by any chance? If so could you disable it, reboot the router, wait 2 minutes and try again please.
That's one feature I don't have enabled on mine...
Armor was initially active when I ran into the issue but I turned it off last night and am still seeing this error today.
I will try to load the FW as you described. Do I use a cable from PC to the LAN or WAN on the router once disconnecting the Modem? Or does that not matter?
Ok. Good to know.
Use the LAN for the ethernet connected PC.
Be sure you do a full on factory reset and setup from scratch. Do not re-enable Armor at any point.Hi guys,
