XR500 drops internet
I am having an issue where the internet stops working..... I have 2 Xbox ones being used and they randomly disconnect and now the wifi doesn't work either. The wifi is connected but no internet. On...
The firmware has now been publicly released: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Nighthawk-Pro-Gaming-Routers/New-Firmware-for-XR500-2-3-2-32-fixes-disconnection-issue/m-p/1636839#M3864
If you are having a disconnection issue, please upgrade to this firmware (or a later one in the future). Thank you everyone for your patience
Can you do a factory reset on the one I sent you please to prevent any legacy issues from previous firmware. Netgear are still looking into the cause for those users where the firmware hasn't helped. If you get it again please let me know so I can send you some information to gather for debugging.
I have flashed the firmware fix however it seems to still be dropping the wifi I have reset it multiple times.
- Sent you both another PM with newer firmware to try
Thank you so much dear, I will try this version tonite after office and will get back to you with the results in the morning.. :)
