Have a motorola MB8600 as my modem and that connects to my XR500. My connection will randonly drop for all devices (wired AND wireless ) then the internet LED light on my R700 turns solid red.
Is there a fox for this? I literally bought these devices 3 days ago.

quick update, after a few hours, and to many to count reboots of router and modem, I unplugged the xbox one ethernet cable, rebooted everything it I have internet again..Not sure if this is what the cause is though, but im leaving it unplugged for now to see.
