My issue seems similar but maybe slightly different. My PS4 Pro will randomly report that the "LAN cable has been disconnected" XR500. It never loses the connection for very long, most often just a split second. I have the most recent firmware V2.3.2.32 running. When this problem first started happening I bought a brand new Cat6 as I figured that was the problem.
The only support I have left at this time is hardware and these forums. I'm not paying to get support for a faulty product that should have worked right from day one. So hopefully I can find some help here, otherwise I'll have to return this modem which I really don't want to do.

Hi - have you tried using a different Ethernet port on the router in case there is a faulty one?
Also, have you raised a ticket with NETGEAR's official support? If you raise a case there, they will be able to give you full support too.
