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
I my modem is a sb8200 its not a puma 6 chip.
Sorry to hear. I like the gaming features enough from this XR500 to have dealt with this, but really miss the dual wan features of the asus RT-AC87 that I moved away from. I've found with the XR500 it does upnp for multiple consoles and provides open nat consistently like no other. also the geo filter stuff to avoid gambit or crucible matches in high latency lobbies it worth it for me. If not for these, i would have swapped the router.
