XR300 + QoS + Media Streaming on Samsung SmartTV
Good evening all
I have just purchased a XR300 with the latest firmware on and set everything up without a problem, just got PS5 and thought I'd get a gaming router aswell. Also have 3 boys that use netflix, YouTube, Disney+ etc so thought QoS was perfect. All works well except my smart TV in the lounge, its a Samsung QE65Q9FNA and all apps work fine except ITV Hub. It will no play anything unless I switch off QoS, the moment I switch off QoS it will start playing.
I've tried adding the TV as high priority and adding all ports but nothing.
On a side note will DumaOS 3.0 be available for the XR300 and if so any time frame on this?
Thanks in advance

- Thanks for the update, I don't think there is anything else I can suggest at the moment unfortunately. It would be best to see whether it works on the beta, then if it doesn't we can take a look as we'll be actively developing for that version so I'd suggest disabling QoS fully for the moment.
You won't be notified but keep checking here to see when it becomes available: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Nighthawk-Pro-Gaming-DumaOS-3-0/bd-p/en-home-beta-npg-duma

Hey Jamie, we're glad you're enjoying the XR300 thus far!
That is quite the specific bug you've found there...
Do you have Share excess bandwidth enabled? It may be that the traffic generated by ITV hub is categorised incorrectly and is not being given any bandwidth.
Would you mind sharing a screenshot of your QoS configuration?
DumaOS 3.0 will be coming to the XR300, but unfortunately I don't have a timeframe for when this may be, just know that we're working on it!
- Good afternoon
I'm glad DumaOS 3.0 is coming to the XR300 and really do like the work you've done for us gamers. Best router I've had running some amazing amazing software. I've been looking at the R2 and maybe after Christmas I might treat myself.
I will upload a screenshot of my QoS configuration when I get home as I can't seem to get anywhere access working at the moment but no that bothered about that.
I do have share excess bandwidth enabled though
Thanks for the quick reply also đHey,
Thanks for you feedback, we're glad you're enjoying DumaOS, it's just going to keep getting better and better!
I'll wait to see your config and we'll go from there!
