As I stated yesterday, I was up and running for over a week without any issues. I plugged my xbox one is last night, I watched a program from Plex off of the Xbox One. When I got off of work today, I have no internet and needed to restart my router. I have unplugged my Xbox one again.
Firmware: V2.2.1.10-DBG-XR356-180522a

Radiax - there's a newer version of the beta firmware. I will send this to you now via PM.

I've been running the beta firmware for a few weeks now, and all had been fine until yesterday. Had internet stop responding on all devices, despite the modem being fine.
Reboot of XR500 and EX8000 were required to restore internet connection.
Wouldn't mind trying the newer version too, thanks :-)
