Still suffering with horrendous lag when other devices in the house are streaming video. No update on firmware in two years, still on a beta version. XR500 has been updated multiple times, as have R1 and R2 and XR1000. Seriously peaved with the lack of support on this router that cost a bloody fortune and was advertised to solve all my gaming issues. Can anyone advise me on a better router with better customer support?
Router is connected to a modem made for Virgin Media, it's an Arris TG3492LG-VBM , PS5 connected direct via Cat7 cable.
