Not sure which firmware I had as I exchange the router. I do know I had the most up to date firmware. If there is a beta firmware I did ask how I could get it once before. Anyways I tried 3 routers this weekend I just went with Nighthawk x10 everything seems fine just having issue with one game black ops yes I did port triggering etc. Before I get told go to the nighthawk pag, Thanks for your help couldn’t keep resetting router everyday and not being able to connect to my house when I wasn’t home. Guess time will tell with the nighthawk x10 hope it works I’m at a big lost between the 2 routers now lol

So you don't have the XR500 anymore? If so sorry to hear that and I hope you'll consider it again in future.
