XR500 in game disconnect

Hi, I have an XR500 with a wired connection to a PS4 pro. The problem is that during gameplay on black ops 4 I keep getting a connection interrupted error! It doesn’t kick me from the game it just leaves me able to move but everyone else is just running on the spot for a few seconds. It reconnects exactly were I was or I’ve been killed and re spawn. Never had this happen before. Has any come across this or have any suggestions. Game runs fine other than this and it’s always at the worst time when it does it.

      I wouldn't hold your breath. Supposedly there is a firmware update in November (broad range). Netgear doesn't seem to have an urgency with the XR500. It won't be until we all start returning this paid beta router.

        Still waiting on a response from netgear or netduma to try and solve this issue.

    Ive seen this as well. This is NOT a router issue. This is  BO4 issue. Been reports of in game disconnects and boots out of game or to the dash board. Check the CoD game forum.

      What does the Geo-Filter ping of the game show when this happens? Is QoS being used?
