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
Hi all,
I'm also having issues with NETGEAR XR500 randomly disconnecting. Is this something that has been fixed?

- Sent you a PM, should hopefully resolve your issue
so i mostly play just leauge of legends, when i play hooked straitght to the moden im at 24 ping, when i go through router i am 27-28, not a huge difference, but still larger than it should i believe, but the more inportant thing is it feels really laggy, for example last hititng seems very dificult since the last router update. so my question is what should the amount of ping added be going through the router? i would guess less than one or around one millisencond not 3-4. would this new beta firmware help me? btw i have already changed all the settings i could think of to give league priority.
Firmware version XR500 V2.3.2.22 - I've sent you the firmware in case you want to try it.
3-4ms increase should not make it feel really laggy in any way, especially considering you're under 30ms which is great! It could be the ethernet cables connecting the routers together that needs replacing. If you make a new topic that'll help and include your settings.
I am currently running the latest beta 2.3.2.26 which has been sent to me and can say that UPNP seems be be working as intended and is showing the ports it is opening also the WiFi lag/dropping seems to have gone I have had it running on my router for about 2 days now have disabled auto update as if it is working I will leave it.
- How can get a copy of the beta firmware please
Thanks
Antonio
