XR500 frequently drops internet connections
Hey All,
I am currently experiencing an issue with my new XR500, As the title says my connection disconnects for about 3-10 seconds from time to time throughout the day. As well as the lights on my router constantly blinking, I am aware that they indicate if there is traffic on our network but, After trying multiple solutions from this forum I wasn't able to solve that issue either.
I am using a wired connection (Cat6)
Thanks in advance!

What is the XR500 connected to upstream? An ISP router, a modem, or straight into the wall?

It's connected to a modem from my ISP

What kind of modem is it? Is it purely a modem or does it work as a router? I'm trying to figure out if it could be doing any traffic management on it's own which might be interfering with DumaOS.
