xr500 laggy internet pauses
I've got terrible issues with wifi amd wored devices. I get horrible lag and brief pauses in my connection. Devices literally take min to load a page but speed test all are bout 17ms.....I'm on the la...
This didn't help..... even with qos off playing Xbox makes all other device disconnect until im done playing a game. I did what you said and still the same. I watched all of my google nest cams there's 5 of them go online then watch them go back online after stopping gaming.
Here's another issue. I'm usong Xfinity gig service but cant access any Xfinity apps/services all of them say logged in but cant account until I use cellular data. I spoke with comcast numerous times and they say it's all good on their end even after coming to the house a few times. All my issues disappear a bit after rebooting. The router blocking stuff?
Possibly. It might be that there are ports that aren't making their way through correctly. UPnP should do this but it sounds like it's not.
Is this problem occuring with the TP-Link bridged or not bridged? If it's not bridges, putting the XR300 into the DMZ might be required to get this working.
- I have the xr500 connected to a Xfinity gateway which is in bridge mode.
- Have you set any manual settings for the Xbox network settings at all? If so set them to Automatic. Seems strange its when this specific device is in use. Have you tried a factory reset and then after going through the setup wizard leaving everything on the default settings and seeing if it's still an issue?
