Could you take the ISP router out of modem mode please, then reconnect it to the XR - does it continue to reboot then?

I have changed my isp modem/ router back to router mode and so far have had no crashes. But have noticed the WiFi speed is slower and speed test usually fail over WiFi. I have turned the WiFi off on the ISP as it is in router mode.- LukeEyre01Mar 03, 2021TutorThis is every time on the nighthawk app. Trying to test speed coming direct into the router

OK thanks, how much slower are we talking? What are the before and after speeds?
